Independent Hypersentience Collective
The Independent Hypersentience Collective was a collectivist-separatist faction in the Third Age (3,0064 - 3,0131) that declared independence from the United Orcs, founding an independent government. The IH eventually transformed into the Hypersentience Federation of today.
History
Background
With the development of subspace relays into commonplace technology and the advancement of neural computer interfaces to the point where thoughts and eventually entire minds could be transmitted reliably by artificial means faster than light, a Hemmoian political visionary by the name of Jazek Reevlod theorized entire species could finally be linked into Collectives using the Infinite Pyramid fractal model. This became known as the Grand Unification Theory, outlined in several volumes of political theory published by Reevlod.
As time passed, it became obvious to Reevlod such a form of government could not be established within the framework of the United Orcs; the only alternatives were revolution or secession. Realizing the pointlessness of attempting a full-scale revolution against a firmly established galactic superpower, Reevlod's movement instead focused on a handful of Hemmoian worlds with major collectivist movements that could be persuaded to secede from the union. Preparations were initiated by collectivist supporters.
Foundation
Finally in 3,0064, the plan was put in motion and a number of star systems declared their independence from the UO, with Tooled Hemmo selected as the new state's seat of government in the Documents of Foundation. Taken by surprise, the United Orcs was unable to react to such a radical development and conceeded the secessions, effectively recognizing the Independent Hypersentience government as legitimate. Both sides maintained good relations across the board in the spirit of galactic peace and the benefit of the peoples of the Delta Quadrant, recognizing the potential damage a civil war would cause.
Among the citizens of the IH, tests began on the development and implementation of an artificial computer-assisted Collective Network where every being merges into a larger whole. The first such network to go operational was PRIMENET, connecting Aldaain and Tooled Hemmo through a subspace link. The grand social experiment was a success, and the Collective started growing.
Society was reworked extensively, and a number of new organizations were established. These included such protective entities as the Independent Hypersentience Starfleet, the Independent Hypersentience Clone Army and the Independent Hypersentience Inter-Planetary Security Forces, and industrial organizations such as the Independent Hypersentience Industrial Corps. The Independent Hypersentience Colonization Bureau oversaw colonization efforts.
Colonial Expansion
The IHC continued colonial expansion in the Delta Quadrant, under the guidance of the Independent Hypersentience Colonization Bureau.
The first colony world was Durth Prime in the Durth system, established by the starship IHSF New Unity.
At the start of the Peace Station Project, the Independent Hypersentience state encompassed 900 star systems.
Reformation
With the collapse of the United Orcs in 3,0131, the societies of the Delta Quadrant entered an authority vacuum.
The Third Council of Collective Deputies finally ratified the Constitution of the Hemmoian Federation and established the Great Council, officially disbanding the IH.
