Author: Wenlan (15th Mayor of Oxia)
"Great Eruption", this is the most fundamental paradigm shift in human history since recorded time. In those fleeting years of the passing stars, the world transformed from a vast planet into a universe within a fruit core. Our homeland thus became the sole city in the world, the sole factory, the sole technological research institute, and the sole custodian of culture (disregarding those physical hypotheses, at least in our own cognition). So, if one were to summarize the history of Oxia since the Era of Relocation with a short essay, then perhaps contrasting it with the "pre-eruption" era would be a more intriguing choice.
From my perspective, if we were to compare the history before and after the Great Eruption, we can clearly see two characteristics of Oxia: firstly, compared to our ancestors, we prefer to maintain the institutional forms that originated before the Great Eruption, even though the substantial content has already undergone tremendous changes due to the environmental endowment of the bubble universe; secondly, corresponding to this, the social changes that thoroughly altered people's way of life in the early Era of Relocation are also embedded within these "forms", forming indisputable new traditions. For example, the current Oxia Data Research Institute integrates a series of functions such as urban management, industrial production, education publishing, and financial services, and people consider all this as a matter of course — but before the Era of Relocation, it was indeed just an insignificant "temporary research institute" (also known as a "research mobile station") within the Antares University, with fewer than 20 members.
Compared to the history before the Great Eruption, the history of Oxia is unique. Only when we realize this point can the history after the Era of Relocation appear in the correct light before us. Now, let us review the significant events that Oxia has experienced from the birth of human civilization to the ninety-ninth year of the Era of Relocation.
