	~~The~~ '''Vrienden Universe''' is a semi-fictional historical setting ~~that integrates modified and recontextualized elements of~~ real-world history ~~into a single continuous framework~~.		'''Vrienden Universe''' is a semi-fictional historical setting built around one shared history. It uses real-world history, changed historical events, original people, altered countries, extra territories, and other planets inside one setting.

	== Setting ==		== Setting ==
	The ~~universe spans~~ from the fifteenth century to the present day.		The setting mostly takes place on [[Earth]] and runs from the fifteenth century to the present day. Real places still exist and are usually recognizable, but they do not always have the same history, borders, coastlines, or political status as they do in real life. Some places are changed because of events inside the setting. Other places, such as additional islands near [[Fiji]], exist as part of the normal geography of this world.

	~~It is primarily based on Earth, but~~ includes ~~additional~~ planets ~~within~~ the same physical reality. ~~Real-world geography is recognizable but may differ in specific ways. Coastlines~~, ~~borders~~, and ~~territories may vary. For example, additional islands exist near [[Fiji]]~~.		The setting also includes other planets. These planets are part of the same physical reality as Earth. They are not separate timelines, alternate worlds, or outside versions of the same history. Events on Earth and events on other planets can be connected when this is shown on related pages.

	Real historical ~~contexts may~~ appear in ~~altered~~ form. ~~These~~ changes are ~~part~~ of ~~the established reality of the setting~~.		Real historical countries, wars, governments, families, and organizations can appear in changed form. In most cases, these changes are treated as normal parts of history. A country may have a different government, a family may have more influence than in real history, or a faction may control territory that it did not control in real life.

	== Rules ==		== Rules ==
	The ~~universe~~ follows one ~~continuous~~ timeline.		The setting follows one timeline. Events happen in order and stay part of history after they happen. A later event can change the result of an earlier one, but it should not erase it unless this is clearly explained.
	Events ~~are cumulative~~ and do not ~~reset~~.

	There are no parallel timelines. Different ~~accounts represent perspective within~~ the same shared reality.		There are no parallel timelines. Different pages can describe the same event or group from different sides, but they still describe the same shared reality. If two accounts seem different, they should be written as different views, later corrections, propaganda, mistakes, or disputed information inside the same history.

	~~Entities such as families~~, regimes, organizations, ~~and states persist across time unless explicitly dissolved~~.		Families, regimes, states, factions, companies, armies, and/or organizations continue to exist until something ends or changes them. This can happen through collapse, takeover, merger, defeat, reform, succession, or replacement. A group should not disappear from history without some kind of explanation.

	~~Geographic~~ and ~~planetary features are stable~~ unless ~~changed through~~ documented ~~in-universe developments~~.		Geography is mostly stable. Islands, cities, planets, regions, and borders should stay consistent between pages unless a documented event changes them. If a page changes the status of a place, that change should fit with the wider [[Timeline]] and related location pages.

	~~All narrative material must align with established chronology and geography as documented in~~ the ~~[[Timeline]] and related reference pages~~.		New pages should connect to existing pages where it makes sense. They should not repeat too much background information from other articles, but they should give enough context so the subject is clear.

	== Structure ==		== Structure ==
	The ~~universe~~ is organized ~~chronologically~~ into ~~defined~~ eras, ~~each representing~~ a ~~dominant historical period~~. Era ~~boundaries~~ are ~~approximate~~ and ~~indicate shifts in large-scale~~ organization ~~and control~~.		The setting is organized into eras. An era is a broad period of history, not always a hard break between one year and the next. Era pages are mostly used to show the main type of power, conflict, control, and organization during that part of the timeline.

	~~Historical development is generational~~. ~~Authority~~, ~~territorial influence~~, and ~~institutional systems evolve~~ through ~~succession~~, ~~consolidation~~, conflict, ~~and reorganization~~.		History in the setting often develops through generations. Families gain power, lose power, split, inherit positions, or build new systems over time. States and factions also change through war, political control, administration, reform, and internal conflict. Older events often explain why later groups, borders, or institutions exist.

	Factions, families, and ~~regimes are documented in the~~ [[~~Factions~~]] ~~section~~.		The main groups are covered through pages about [[Factions]], [[Organizations]], families, countries, military bodies, and locations. The [[Timeline]] gives the larger order of events, while separate pages explain the people, places, and systems involved.

	This wiki describes how ~~the universe functions~~. It ~~documents events~~, ~~entities~~, and ~~systems without evaluative commentary~~.		This wiki describes the setting as a reference work. It explains what happened, who was involved, where it happened, and how it connects to other pages. It should stay clear, direct, and neutral.

New page

The Vrienden Universe is a semi-fictional setting that integrates altered,
parallel, or recontextualized elements of real-world history within a
single continuous framework.

== Scope ==
The universe spans the period from the seventeenth century to the
present day.

Real-world locations, institutions, and historical contexts may appear
in modified or abstracted form. The universe does not aim to reproduce
historical reality, but to maintain internal consistency.

== Continuity ==
The Vrienden Universe follows a single continuous timeline.
Later developments emerge from earlier conditions rather than replacing
or resetting them.

Contradictions are not part of the universe’s structure.
When multiple perspectives or accounts exist, they are reconciled
within a coherent framework rather than treated as parallel truths.

== Structural Eras ==
Historical development is organized into conceptual eras.
These eras describe dominant structural relationships rather than
specific sequences of events.

Detailed chronology is documented in the [[Timeline]].

* **Vader structure** — centralized authority and rigid hierarchy
* **Middenvader structure** — internal fragmentation and reorganization
* **Vriend structure** — stabilized continuity and adaptive coexistence

Each structure dominates a defined historical period but may persist
in altered form beyond its primary era.

== Power Structures ==
Influence within the universe is exercised through persistent entities,
including families, states, and regional regimes.

These entities are documented in the [[Factions]] section.
No single structure is treated as universally dominant.

== Narrative Use ==
Narrative material may adopt limited or localized viewpoints.
Such material must remain consistent with established structural
and chronological reference pages.

== Interpretation ==
This wiki presents the universe descriptively rather than prescriptively.
Pages aim to document how the setting functions, not to evaluate it.
