Starways Congress - date of establishment
Posted: Fri Nov 29, 2013 9:21 am
I just started reading Shadows in Flight... The 1st chapter tells the reader 400 something years have passed since Bean left Earth and Starways Congress has been already established. If I remember my Speaker for the Dead correctly, the Congress wasn't established for over a millennium after Ender's "xenocide". What's up with that???
I also found some sources on the nets that describe how Starways Congress was established by United States winning a war with Free People of Earth. I don't recall any mention of such a thing in any of Ender's Quintet books so I assume it's somewhere later in Shadows in Flight... Is that correct? If not, can somebody please refresh my memory?
