==The Stellar Exodus==
The '''Stellar Exodus''' is man's earliest colonisation colonization of other worlds, taking place before the Age of Technology. Humanity initially established colonies within Terra's solar system. Spacecraft were still only capable of sub-light speeds. Voyages outside the solar system took generations and the colonies that were established were effectively isolated from each other and from Terra. Trade was therefore severely restricted. This forced the individual colonized star systems to be completely self-sufficient in all vital requirements (food, medicine, technology, etc).
