The Decimation

The Decimation was a catastrophic event that occured in the year 0 AD (After Decimation), 300,000 years before present day. The dating system is centered around this event.

Evidence of the Decimation
Most scientists agree that the decimation occured when a former moon, named Dremika, crashed into the central world after having its orbit altered by gravitational pull from a star that passed close to the solar system. The main evidence of this is a nine-hundred-mile-wide crater whose imprint indicates creation around 0 AD. Another implication is the differences in unusual erosion on the coast likely due to differing tides that may have been caused by a second moon.

Aftermath
The Decimation wiped out approximately ninety-five percent of all Humans but strangely only about four percent of other life. The disaster caused extremly rapid continental drift sometimes exceeding ten miles each year to occur for several thousand years. The Crater and The Scar were apparent marks of the devastation prior to the event.
