Andorith's appearance in the Voidsea is relatively recent. Andorith has a longer history of planar travel, and a bustling sea port. The space port was only established after King Al abdicated the throne.
Timeline
Stars Are Places
During this time Andorithians realized that stars are places it was possible to go to, and that they very much wanted to go to them. This period is marked by early attempts at spaceflight. These attempts were costly, deadly, and generally poorly thought of in the modern day. The most notable attempt from this time was Jotenheim's Catapault, a magic powered launcher that sent the first Andorithian, a ghoul named Haketh, into space.
First Contacts
During this period Andorith took to space and encountered new sentient beings, ideas, and physics concepts. Andorithians generally look back fondly on this period of time despite the hardships, including both Alien Flu, and the controversial destruction of a ship that seemed bound to break quarantine. Despite these troubles, Andorith approached and made contact with the Blissovians and Thampur within a year of each other, and during this period also met with the Guri and Anterik.
Golden Age of (Space) Piracy
Generally considered a dark period in Andorith's history in Space, warring factions gave money and guns to privateers to fight proxy battles on their behalf. These proxy conflicts accelerated in the aftermath of the The Scattershot War, a multipolar war called that officially ended after the involved parties had endured enough attrition to not want to continue the war, but not enough that they didn't still want someone to go win it for them. These ongoing conflicts led to the rise of the Coral Rings, a short lived pirate government founded devotees of Queen Perfection with Eyes of Fire. Coral Rings was overthrown by a rare joint operation by enemy factions, paving the way for the next era.
The Second House of Custom's Interplanetary Reconciliation
Following the, mostly, successful suppression of piracy in the resource rich Folenger's Belt, the House of Customs Authority made a second attempt to codify space mining and trade.
