==History== :''See also: [[Accolade/Lore#History_of_New_Romulus|History of New Romulus (lore)]]'' ===The Iconian Empire=== *[[Pre-22nd Century#200,000 years ago|200,000 years ago]], Dewa III was a colony world of the [[Iconian|Iconian Empire]]. Although later records state that they ruled oppressively over the native [[Dewan]]s, killing any who did not fall in line, the factuality of these claims is questionable and/or they pertain only to the time after the Iconian homeworld was destroyed. *When an alliance of envious races, who would later claim to have risen against their oppressors, attacked the Iconian worlds to gain access to the superior technology, Dewa was the first planet targeted. The planet was bombarded from orbit, killing thousands and destroying the geothermal taps that provided power to everything on the planet. While the last twelve surviving Iconians sought shelter on Dewa III for some time after the obliteration of [[Iconia|their homeworld]], they later left via their [[Iconian gateway|gateways]], abandoning the Dewans. ===The Dewan Civilization=== :''See also: [[Accolade/Lore#Last_Days_of_the_Dewans|Last Days of the Dewans (lore)]]'' *With the Iconians gone, the surviving Dewans formed their own civilization. *[[Pre-22nd Century#150,000 years ago|Thousands of years later]], as the Dewans were preparing to launch their first [[starship]]s, an abandoned Iconian Gateway was found in a subterranean cavern. Tempted by the possibility of instantaneous travel, the space program was abandoned and all resources were thrown toward making the Gateway operational again. *When the Gateway was ready, it was connected to geothermal power taps to provide the necessary energy. The Dewans failed to realize the bombardment millenia ago had made this dangerous. *When the Dewans activated the Gateway, it triggered massive earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that wiped out most of the population and bathed the planet in a killing cloud of radiation. *The surviving Dewans retreated to caves to escape the radiation and the nuclear winter, but ultimately their resources ran out and they died off. ===The Vulcan Outcasts=== *[[Pre-22nd Century#4th Century|2,000 years ago]], the {{mAlpha|Time of Awakening}} occurred on [[Vulcan (planet)|Vulcan]]. [[Vulcan]] society suppressed its emotions to put an end to centuries of savage conflict. A group known as "those who march beneath the raptor's wings" opposed this solution, seeing it as a betrayal of their souls. They left Vulcan aboard huge generational ships and set off to find a new planet on which to settle. *The outcast Vulcans eventually reached Dewa III, which they named Vastam. Some desired to settle there, not wanting to return to the cold and cramped ships, while others believed they could not make the necessary changes to live there. *Eventually an open debate was organized to make the decision. Despite the good intentions, things quickly deteriorated and a massive riot began. By the time it ended, 247 people had been killed. *The survivors unanimously decided to leave, which they did. They ultimately settled on the planet [[Romulus]] and became known as the [[Romulan]]s.
