Hello, all! I have a pretty big roleplay idea that I would like to start, but first, off there are a few things that will be needed for this: People who like group roleplays, worldbuilding, and at minimum 1-2 paragraph responses. If this sounds like you, please consider reading on. It's probably going to be quite messy as my ideas are strewn out, so please bear with me.
In the year 4081, over a thousand years after World War III ended with the countries of Earth united under one name, The United Alliance is locked into a galactic war with the Imperial Confederacy. After our solar system collided with another and caused new planets to take the place of the now-destroyed gas giants. These planets were discovered to have species of aliens including a long-lost colony of humans... these humans are the Imperial Confederacy. Both the Alliance and the Imperials are now fighting for control. In the meantime, a rebellion is trying to stop the war between both sides completely, made up of former members of both the Imperials and Alliance.
(Sorry that my wording sucks...)

Factions
The Imperial Confederacy
The Imperials came when the Scyron system collided with the Solar System in 3254, known as the ‘Gas Rupture’, because of the four gas giants were destroyed, leaving new planets in their place. One of the new planets, Nylis, was the home of the Imperials, another complete civilization, similar to the human race. Unlike Earth, the planet is completely barren, and inhabitable without the modern technology used today, giving the common theory that they are just a colonization of a long lost civilization. Today, they are at war with the Alliance, fighting for control and power of the Solar System. The Imperial Army has about 10,000 starships and 2 ½ billion people in its ranks.
The United Alliance
The Alliance is the remaining inhabitants of the Earth after WWIII ended 2123. The two greatest remaining powers, the United States and China, combined together and after a minor struggle, the entire Earth was under the domain of The Alliance. The headquarters of the Alliance is the entire former country of Japan. The large military base has over 500 million soldiers going in and out each day, with over 50,000 starships under control. The Alliance and The Imperials are at war and colonizing other planets to expand the empire is a focus, because it shows more power against the Imperials.
The Rebellion
The Rebellion is a hodgepodge group of former Alliance and former Imperial peoples. They aren’t one functioning community, and they have their own colonies. They live off of their ships, and the Earth or Nylis. They are the outlaws of the star system and are enemies of both the Alliance and the Imperials. They hope that they can break away from their old government leaders’ harsh ruling and that they can change it. There are only about 50,000 people that support the Rebels and about 5,000 Rebel controlled starships.
Alien Species
Jarix
Even the smallest Jarix is easily the size of a large human. They are generally humanoid but possess a head reminiscent of a carnivorous dinosaur on the end of a serpentine neck, with spikes running down it. They possess great strength and can take a lot of hits before going down. Jarix technology is rudimentary at best; space travel is possible through scavenged tech other species and weaponry consists of large, unsubtle gunpowder weapons and melee attacks. Many Jarix has left the planet to seek fortune and glory in battle as mercenaries or bounty hunters, something their aptitude for combat and physical power makes them well suited for.
Kaori
Kaorex are shorter than humans usually, around four to five feet tall. Kaorex are feathered and have different patterns, they also have more wing-like arms, but are only able to fly a few feet off of the ground. Kaorex are also usually weak, as their bones are hollow to allow for flight. Kaorex also have beaks similar to that of birds. The Kaorex are neutral by nature, choosing to never take sides in a conflict. They prefer to work as traders, and sometimes as doctors, using natural and exotic remedies. They have no central government, living in trade caravans more commonly called “flocks” that mostly consists of family members and close friends. It’s rare to see a single Kaori alone for a long period of time. They will abide by the rules that are set by other species at trade stations, but on their home planet, you can buy just about anything if you have the money. The Kaorex native language is very complex, however, and very few outsiders have actually learned it, despite the Kaorex having mostly learned English already. They don’t seem rather keen on sharing their native tongue with non-Kaori.
At the end of the day, I'm looking for a group of roleplayers who want to have a good time roleplaying and expanding upon this little world idea I had. Comment here if interested, please!

At the end of the day, I'm looking for a group of roleplayers who want to have a good time roleplaying and expanding upon this little world idea I had. Comment here if interested, please!
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
This sounds really interesting! Are we allowed to bring in our own alien species to add to the Imperial Confederacy or the Rebellion?

Glad you're interested! Bringing in other species, planets, even factions is a huge part of this roleplay, I want to do a lot to expand upon the world with everyone who decides to get involved!
I am willing to join! 
So many ideas to go for with this!

Yay! I was hoping to get some brains churning with this!
If I may ask, how would one best set up group Roleplays with lots of lore on this website?
I think the best way is to just make a Group. They have their own forums and there are pages where you can dump in lots of info. It's perfect for this.
Thanks, I'll look into doing that then!
Bump! We're still looking for more people who'd potentially be interested in this! Remember that all the info on here is being modified and edited by everyone as a group!
I would like to join this.
Looks very cool! I'm interested in joining
You two have been invited to the group!
id be willing to give this a try
Yo this sounds really cool, wondering though, would Mecha/giant robots be allowed to be used as military weapons in this world. I love the idea for this though, definitely interested in joining^^
I'm totally interested, especially cause I noticed you said bringing in other species is a big part of this. Would I be able to involve my Tao species, a creation hailing from a planet I call Tenebris?
I will invite you two to the group shortly, and yes, both would be possibilities if we all discuss it!
Totally interested in getting in on this. Would I be able to bring my cybernetic character?
Not much exp with group rp but would like to jump in.
