Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
Ten thousand refugees from the losing side fled the Terran Federation and colonized the planet Excalibur. By the beginning of the novel, they had expanded over a handful of worlds organized in a feudal system, keeping their technology. When they encounter the Old Federation again, it had collapsed.
