| However about 480 years ago they were invaded by the Egans. They did not resist at this time. They suffered under a military dictatorship for close to 50 years before they rose up and fought back. It took them 5 years but in that time they not only drove the invaders off their homeworld but pushed them back to their own homeworld. The war ended when they had destroyed every ship, production facility and major city on the Egans homeworld.

| Since then they have worked hard to remove every physical reminder of that period in their history.

| ==Description== | | ==Description== |
| The Antosian people are tall slim humanoids who stand on average 5'10" to 6'6". The one feature that everyone notices first about them is their hair. It is past shoulder length on men and women and ranges in color from blue and green to purple. While the color range covers all possible shades or combinations of these colors they tend to be mostly bright in nature vergeing on neon. Strangely enough the individuals eye color will always match their hair color exactly.

| |
| The birth of a new life results in a large celebration that usually lasts for 3 days. This will include the entire family, extended family, friends and anyone else who can find time to join them. The baby and his mother are the guests of honour and everything is done for them.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Weddings===
| |
| A wedding celebration will continue until the bride and groom finally collapse from exhaustion. This can normally take from 3 to 7 days. When they do collapse they are carried to the bridal suit by what ever guests are still capable of performing the feat. At this point they will be left alone for 10 days to make the wedding legal in the eye's of their families.

The flames will be lit and the guests will dance and rejoice that the spirit has been freed to return when it is ready. The ash's will be eventually scattered over the closest large body of water.

| They have warp drive technology that is close to that employed by the Federation. Any of their vessels that have been seen are always well designed. They seem to be designed both for visual enjoyment but also for comfort. They do not have transporter or replicator technology. Some interest has been shown in transporter tech but none for replicator tech. In fact they prefer real food to anything materealized out of a replicator as they claim it ruins the taste.
