![]() Over the course of the Gallente-Caldari War, militant fringe groups of Intaki sympathized with the State and asked to join the Caldari Navy, particularly experienced military personnel. Only during the beginning of the capsuleer era would the Achura acquire interstellar recognition as many sought out pod pilot training. Some were displaced for mining operations, but for the most part, Achura who had not been assimilated remained reclusive and introverted. The rural areas were mostly ignored, dotted with thousands of Achura monasteries. This mostly affected major population centers, which were modernized to become full cities according to the Caldari standard. Their pre-industrial Achura Empire had been discovered by SuVee during the secret colonization many decades prior, and was uprooted and replaced by minority Caldari rule. Influenced by Sukuuvestaa Corporation, the Achura decided to join the Caldari in their secession as a client state. Other ethnicities, including ethnic Gallente who had long been residents of the Caldari homeworld, were brought into the fold where all now identified as one race. The largest Caldari ethnicities, the Deteis and Civire, were affected by these deep-rooted changes and molded to the norm. The Caldari psyche and society was shaped into something completely new, as the all-encompassing corporate state came into being. When the Chief Executive Panel usurped control of the homeworld from the indigenous nations, all who supported the secession were swept up in the social upheaval, their identities being uprooted and replaced by a new one where discipline and loyalty became the defining traits. This practice continued way past the founding of the Federation in 23121AD, and it was only until the secession of the Caldari in 23154AD did matters change. The Caldari’s concept of a nation differed from the Gallente’s definition, the latter of which tended to be built around purpose or ideology, rather than race or culture.Įven when the megacorporations secretly colonized regions of space on behalf of their master nations, the Caldari would continue to identify by their original ethnicity. ![]() ![]() The boundaries between these ethnicities were profound, not only in physical appearance, but culturally. By this point, each Caldari race were organized into their own fully-fledged nation on Caldari Prime, with minimal to no cross-ethnic mingling. The term Caldari only came about after first contact with the Gallente in 22517AD, as a planetary identifier used to distinguish the races of their homeworld from those of their newfound partners (that term also being used for the exact same purpose). Tikiona was united between 17453AD and 20988AD under the Raata Empire, with whatever ethnicities existing at the time organized into political entities called houses. Like their Gallente neighbors, they were composed of different races on different continents across Caldari Prime, although the bulk of the population were located on the Tikiona continent. Historyīefore the founding of the State, the Caldari were not a singular entity. However, the Caldari do not keep track of non-employees (including the disenfranchised), leaving inhabited areas of State space that aren't under the control of a megacorporation. The Caldari are frequently cited as being the most efficient at keeping the best track of their citizens, as a requirement of citizenship is to be an employee of one of the megacorporations. Where corporate control is weak and/or threatened by non-Caldari influences (such as colonial outposts in remote areas or space stations on major spacelanes), citizens are frequently rotated between locations, resulting in very few permanent residents in these places. Rural populations are nearly non-existent, leaving large tracts of State space unclaimed by any megacorporation or uninhabited for the purposes of automated agriculture and hazardous environment mining operations. The State has the highest urban density of the four empires, leaving much of its population concentrated around urban and industrial centers on planets in and around the core systems, where corporate control is absolute. It is a relatively homogenous nation, with lesser social and cultural diversity than elsewhere, and a single language enforced for the sake of popular unity. The Caldari State is the second least populous entity out of the four major empires in New Eden, compromising under 10% of the cluster’s population.
