Leto Atreides the Second, known to the universe as The God Emperor, ruled over all of mankind from 10205 AG to 13724 AG. Throughout his 3,000 year rule, Leto had oppressed mankind. In his totalitarian regime, travel between planets was prohibited for the vast majority of the imperial inhabitants. Throughout the empire, the people lived in similar homes and lived similar lives. There was no progress and people were not free to seek out their own desires as they had once been. They had peace, or at least the sense of it, but no liberty. When Leto II died so did his empire. Humanity was plunged into the famine times. For so long men had relied upon the God Emperor for all of their needs. In this time the natural resources of many planets were plundered, technologies dismantled and repurposed. The scarcity during these times lead to a lot of human suffering but for the first time in millennia, mankind was free to choose its own destiny. Mankind was also wary of another Emperor such as Leto II the tyrant. As a result of the famine times and the fear of another Tyrant. They looked to the stars, many chose to flee the old Empire into the far reaches of space. Thanks for watching!

There are at least 13,000 worlds under the influence of the Great Houses of the Landraad at the start of the Dune Series. Holtzman drive technology allows for instantaneous travel between the world the inhabited planets of the galaxy. After the reign of the God-Emperor the Great Scattering of mankind would send humans out in all directions, into the untraceable reaches of space. 15 centuries passed before anyone would return out of the scattering into the former Atreides Empire. Over the 5000 years of the Dune Saga human beings continued to diversify. Some groups isolated themselves till the point where they were almost inhuman, but not quite. But even with human kinds exploration of deep space, there appears to be no concrete evidence of Alien Life. The Dune Encyclopedia mentions the Legend of Ampoliros. This was during the time before the guild. This legend was spoken of on many worlds including Arrakis, Ix, Geidi Prime, and Ecaz, the legend speaks of the “Starsearcher '' a class 3 starship that continued to take on grander proportions until becoming a class 9 ship. According to the legend, in the year 480 BG the crew set off on a long journey towards the Niushe system. Partway through their journey, they came across an abandoned cargo vessel floating in space. The crew supposedly went insane, they had been fully convinced that they and the rest of humanity were under attack by an unseen enemy. The Crew made the decision to fly into space in search of these unseen alien attackers until they eventually ran out of stores The people of the Dune universe seem to have considered the idea of alien life. According to the great convention, the universal truce of mankind held in place by the Alliance of the Royal House, The Guild, and The Landsraad, the use of Atomic weapons is preserved for only Non Human Threats. The use of atomics against human s was grounds for immediate planetary obliteration. So it seems that the threat of Aliens conflict was at least somewhat thought of.

The birth of Dany's dragons appears to be miraculous. She burns Drogo’s body along with her petrified dragon eggs in a pyre. The maegi, Mirri Maz Durr, is also bound to the pyre as punishment for tricking Daenerys into sacrificing the life of her child. When the fire dies down after Daenerys too has walked into the flames, the sky becomes alive with the voices of dragons for the first time in over a century. A closer look at the text reveals that this event was not miraculous, this was actually a precise ritual. To understand this all we have to go back to the beginning. All the way back to Illyrio Mopatis, he gifted Daenerys the stone dragons eggs, but where did he get them from? Thanks for watching!
