With the Demarcation Declaration ending the First Exodus, the Second Exodus marks the transition of the Terran Alliance into the Terran Hegemony, the rise of the Great Houses, and emergence of most Periphery nations. [1]

Overview

With the damage inflicted during the Outer Reaches Rebellion left unhealed - broken industry, ravaged economies, and wounded populations - many felt that there was nothing to rebuild from. When the Demarcation Declaration then cut off all colonies beyond 30 lightyears of Terra, many of the dispossessed felt the only viable action was another migration - another exodus.[1]

The Calderon expedition, for example, would take 25 JumpShips and over 2300 volunteers from Aix-la-Chapelle, and over a 22-month journey would reach the edge of the Hyades Cluster. By January 23rd, 2253, Samantha Calderon would christen the planet Taurus, blossoming eventually into the Taurian Concordat.[1] Elsewhere, the Theban Legion of Hector Rowe would flee for six years through the Dark Nebula, and the freebooter squadron would found the Rim Worlds Republic on September 8th, 2250.[1]

Even within the more crowded worlds within the Terran Alliance there was a massive flood of emigration, as disgruntled citizens fled perceived instability and chaos.[2]

The Second Exodus, and the exodus overall as an era, would eventually come to an end in the Age of War.
