			What is known is that a sentient computer virus was released as a weapon, devastated both fleets and mutated rapidly inside the few ships that survived and fled.

			It moved across the Imperium inside the systems of the ships that carried warning of it coming, invading computerized systems everywhere they went.

			This snowball effect, the element of surprise and the heavy computerisation of all high tech worlds spelled disaster for the Imperium.

==History==
This game follows the history of the Imperium introduced in the Mega-Traveller edition then follows through into the timeline of Traveller:New Era.
In short, the Imperium collapsed into rebellion and anarchy over a fourteen year period, triggered by the assassination of the Emperor by the Archduke of Ilelish in 1116.
In 1130,the last two great fleets met in combat in the Core Sector. Something happened...there are many theories, but none that can be proved. What is known is that a sentient virus was released that mutated rapidly, invading computerized systems everywhere.

Except the Technical Alliance.

==Dethenese Technical Alliance==

The Dethenes Technical Alliance (now known only as the Alliance) is a collection of four worlds (Dethenes, Bincia, Elyan and Kri) that had been a sub-polity within the Imperium since the 1050's.

Dethenes was a highly advanced world (Tech level G)with a 70 billion people spread over the entire system. Sentient AI systems were already in place in the system-wide net, co-ordinating the huge amount of in system traffic. One of the major factors that led to the collapse was Virus arriving in system along with the warning messages carried. In Dethenes, the first arriving virus ships failed to replicate themselves through their usual means. Local AI's alerted the System Navy and all arriving infected ships were isolated or destroyed.

More importantly, all the Starport and major computer systems of the other worlds in the Technical Alliance were Dethenes-built. While virus invaded the many lower tech systems, crucial defence and operational systems remained in the hands of the human populations. On all worlds, the virus collapse was met with stiff resistance.

While the last of the Imperium collapsed around it, Dethenes fought a brief series of vicious wars in-system with invading virus fleets, but never suffered the effects of virus invading it's planetary computer systems. The rest of the Trade alliance were swiftly re-enforced once Dethenes was able, and suffered little to know virus invasion. The alliance closed its borders for good and began to wait out the collapse.
