== Eugenic wars ==
A notable piece of Star wars in-universe history was that of the [[Eugenics]] Wars, sometimes referred to as World War 3. An [[oligarchic transhumanism|elite group]] of humans with enhanced physical and mental skills seized power around the world in a series of [[transhumanist separatism|separatist]] coups. Many millions were believed to have died as a result on the conflict.
