Perhaps the greatest tragedy of the 21st century is due to the fact that Sufu did not have more than one habitable planet.  Two years after a first colony was established on Lacaille 9352 II, two fervently religious groups settled on the main continent of this watery world.  Both led by very charismatic figures, they soon polarized nearly the entire population of the world to one or the other of their faiths.  Four years later, in 2091, war broke out between the two religions, sparking a crusade that has lasted ever since.
