I'm ok with being petty, and even if I expanded it by a factor of 10 or even a 100 I'm still barely worth noticing for most of these empires. Mostly I just want to be more than a dot on the map.

How many Minbari does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Nick, your empire is way out on the -y axis, I.E. when you look at it in the picture that's up ther, the axis that is parallel to your line of vision, is the y axis, negative would be closest to you. and then it's also -z meaning just slightly down...IIRC, the aproximate coordinates are (0, -100, -10).

just an fyi for everyone, since I know people will be downloading it, I'm adding a new feature to the map. I have the ability to "animate the map" i.e. I can zoom into an area, giving a certain view and save that image (and I can make several of these, then by clicking a tab at the top it'll take you to that image. So I've got a tab set up for a broad galactic view, and one for every empire. I'll get the new map loaded up after I get Teaos's Empires and Reliant's last one.

PS. The Rebekaans are "beneath the crust of Australia"

Yeah!!! Go small empires, mine will be expanding though. Sooner or later, and hopefully it will gain diplomacy sometime so it doesn't have to keep killing everything in thier path.

well the Goramji, are tucked into the pocket of space between the Piron, Ar'kek, and Zomerite space, though their much closer to the Ar'kek than to any of the other powers.

Ok, just downloaded the map.

Well the Remcans dont own a single planet, they are totally space born so they have zero territory, instant travel means they are everywhere.

The Traymians, I think I'll put them near the RGU, slightly above them and nearer the centre, I think this puts them around (-20,000, 100,000, 25,000) I'm not sure how big they are sphere size, I want them pretty much touching the RGU so you may need to bump the numbers a little to achive that.

The Celjurians are another one of those little dots on the map. Lets throw them (40,000, -30,000, -60,000).
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I'm okay with being neighbors. The Traymians' good diplomacy will help to keep the RGU from thinking the Traymians are hiding the Builders ;)

Well, we're now only waiting on the location of Reliant and the Zykelan Imperium, and the final map will be uploaded, full animation.
