The last remaining known Terrans were those of the penal colony, [[Callisto]] which were captured by the Free Fleet shortly after the Earth's disappearance. The inmates were sold as cattle until another hostile alien race, the [[Vendal]] attacked the fleet. The Terrans fought for survival alongside their captors and proved their worth in combat through their sheer survival instincts. The remaining Terran inmates were assimilated into the Free Fleet and eventually formed the [[Omega Company]], considering themselves the last of the Human race. | The last remaining known Terrans were those of the penal colony, [[Callisto]] which were captured by the Free Fleet shortly after the Earth's disappearance.

At some point the Human race formed a global government known as the [[United Earth Alliance]]. It was this ruling body that agreed to work with the De'rem and sent a [[Last Broadcast|final farewell message]] to the outlying colonies before the Earth vanished. It is unknown what became of the planet and its inhabitants, but all that remains of Earth's culture is that which survived with the inmates of Callisto. In an effort to preserve some of what they have left, they established the [[Terran History Project]]. Due to the fact that the remnant were hardened criminals which became elite soldiers, the Human culture that has survived tends to be a hearty, rough and tumble sort. | At some point the Human race formed a global government known as the [[United Earth Alliance]].
