There is some, shall we say, inconsistency regarding the Timeline. According to canon, the HUman Alliance joined with the Noro (thus founding the CCW) "several centuries ago". Then they fought the Kreeghor Dominion.

But according to Three Galaxies, the war between the TGE and the CCW was concluded 500 years ago with a signed treaty.

So how old is the CCW?

I would say the Paradise planets are at least 1000 years old. This means they were well established before the war, and rode things out just fine.

Not to mention protected by Naruni Enterprises under retainer.

There's a reason why the Powers That Be haven't attacked Naruni Enterprises, as despised as that name must be by now in the Three Galaxies.

First, because their product really is that good.

And second, because they can put some serious boot to @$$ when need be..............

Hi there!

And third reason: they are selling to the UWW, to the
CCW (thought not the CAF), to the Golgan Republik and
finally, the Altess own almost 40% of NE. So they are
in business relations with about the half of the Galaxy.

As for the timeline, it is also a bit hazy about the
Golgan Republik/Central Alliance timeline too...

Adios

So my new question: when did the Kreeghor rebel against the Splugorth? 10,000 years ago, or 5000?

...or that they first became slave stock 10,000 years ago, and overthrew the Splugorth 5 millennia later.

Which is my personal belief.

Now, thats a good one...
Maybe the TGE is whats 4-5000 years old, and the Dominion is 10,000. That would mean no emperor during the first 5000 years, only "normal" royals. Is it plausible?
I don't necessarily agree with this.

While the "concept" of the Kreeghor Emperor is "only" about 4000 years old, the Splugorth were overthrown by the Kreeghor with the direct intervention of The Dweller Beneath.

I seems to me that the Dweller bided his time before directly Wresting the reins of Power by directly infusing the Emperors with his Essence.

Maybe, in the beginnings of the Kregghor Empire, there were only the Dweller's Witches. Maybe not even the Witches; perhaps the Dweller wanted the Kreeghor to think that they won their independence on their own.

After all, the average Kreeghor knows NOTHING of the Dweller, correct??

I think we can infer from this cryptic bit of writing that the Kreeghor, as a race, were hatched from the Splugorth vats 10,000 years ago, conquered stuff for their masters for 5,000 years, and then overthrew them.

They carried on doing what they had been before, they were just self employed now. ;)
