Canon history:
In Star Wars Canon around 130ABY the Republic that was rebuilt after defeating Palpatines Empire had crumbled. Once again to be replaced with the Empire as ruled by Roan Fel. However shortly after the Empire regained control of the galaxy a Sith lord known as Darth Krayt usurped the throne from Fel and reestablished a Sith Empire. Darth Krayt abolished the Sith “rule of two” as created by Darth Bane, instead reestablishing a full Sith order under his control.
Second Life history:
In the role play it is assumed that some time after 140ABY fighting between the various factions brought down any sort of organized galactic government and plunged the galaxy into chaos. For almost a hundred years the factions splintered and fought over scraps of power, all trying to carve out a place for themselves in a galaxy in ruins.
The Factions
The Sith:
At some point Darth Krayt lost control of the Sith and so the Sith Empire fractured into various orders. The abundance of Sith created by these orders tore apart any attempts to bring the galaxy back into order. Though they had the numbers and power to control the galaxy infighting amongst the Sith themselves kept them from achieving this goal. Recently however the Sith have become more organized. Returning to Korriban and... they have been integrating Sith orders into one Sith Empire again.
The Jedi:
The Jedi still survived through this time though have also become fractured into many different orders. Several attempts have been made to create a fully unified Jedi order spanning the galaxy however so far none of those attempts have succeeded for very long. The wars between the Jedi and Sith became long, bitter and destructive ravaging many parts of the galaxy. Many of the Jedi have taken more of a background role to events. However, a Jedi Order devoted to the Old Ways has constructed a temple on Talus. They are dedicated to engaging the enemy.
The Fel Empire:
Roan Fel survived after Darth Krayt’s assassination attempt. He returned to Bastion and became a thorn in the side of the Sith as he tried to retake the Empire. Over the years the battles between those loyal to Fel, and those of the Sith Empire nearly destroyed both. The Sith were never defeated however and eventually the Fel Empire was worn down to the point it fell out of sight. In recent years the Fel Empire has returned and is once again a major factor in the Galaxy, able to reclaim Coruscant and make an attempt to create a government once more. However, the rise of the PGA has taken away some of the power they have within the galaxy.
PGA:
After the Galactic Alliance (what remained of the Republic) was defeated by the Empire remnants of it survived. Over the years there have been several attempts to bring back a Republic to the galaxy however they have quickly fallen apart, either through infighting, attacks or attrition. After becoming disillusioned with the Fel Empire’s version of a reestablished senate several Senators broke off and created the Republic Liberation Front. Recently, they were able to take Coruscant, and then make an alliance with the recent Fel Emperor. They now have free elections, a Senate with their alliance of other Planets, and are on their way into making a valid New Republic. They call themselves the People's Galactic Alliance.
The Mandalorians:
If any group has thrived off the chaos of the last hundred years it is the Mandalorians. The constant wars and violence only caused a resurgence of those following the Mandalorian ways. Powerful warriors they are known as a group not to be trifled with as their taking sides in any war nearly ensured the destruction of the opposition. Now rebuilding a home on Duxn there current plans for the future are not known to outsiders though they seem restless from the relative peace in recent months.
Crime Groups:
Be it the Hutt on Coruscant or other crime groups on Nar Shadaa, crime organizations are on the rise with the galaxy under constant threat of war. These groups care only about profit and general chaos.
Citizens:
If there is a true victim within the galaxy as of late, it is the citizens on each of the planets. While they just want to live life free and for their families, the groups above constantly engage in skirmishes that is leading to all out war. And in war, it is the citizens that pay the most.
