Xi'an & Human History Compared - Star Citizen Lore History Timelines

The Xi'an developed technology long before Humanity, and it can be hard to contextualise the vast spans of time involved in their history. In this video, I try to reconstruct the Xi'an timeline alongside contemporaneous events in Human history, up until First Contact.

It would be interesting understanding the lifespan of the Xi'an. If they live longer, 1000s of years for them might be hundreds for us. Their time perception might be different, as well of their rhythm of life. They might burn slower, while we are quicker and more combustible and faster to develop.

This was excellent. Seeing the timeline side by side you can see really why the Xi'an are so advanced.

The Xi'an are space turtles? 😳
...I might look at them more closely now.

Really good video, it's a pity the Xi'an stagnated.. They were thousands of years ahead of humanity, but then humanity caught up
