I've always loved the lore for the founding of the Alliance. They made a giant ship of dry ice that they flew off into distant space with a small number of people, built a fleet of long-range ships to flee further, founded their own country, and then by pure chance ran back into the Empire 167 years later and instantly got into a war. It's brushed over very quickly in this episode and I don't think it gets fully explained for a very very long time, but it's one of my favorite bits of worldbuilding in this series. It also explains why the Alliance and Empire are so different. There was a 167-year gap in development, both cultural and technological. The Empire doubled down on its Prussian obsession, while the Alliance evolved a culture that more closely resembles our own modern aesthetic. One is now a sci-fi version of a 19th-century European empire while the other is a late 20th-century democracy. This gives the author a lot of room to play with the strengths and weaknesses of two very influential forms of government from our history, which we'll see lots of in the future.
