Second, the collaborative nature of the project presents interesting conflicts for writers as they must agree upon a coherent history, politics, society, and economy for their fictional world.

Most massive disk galaxies like our Milky Way formed gradually, reaching their large mass relatively late in the 13.8 billion-year history of the universe. ![]() |
