The Sentient Milieu was an association of starfaring races that was dedicated to the mutual enrichment of its member cultures and to the assistance of emerging sentient species. It is generally agreed that the Milieu was founded around 30,000 years before circa 2155, which is when Star Control II takes place, and formed over several thousand years.

About 25,000 years before 2155, the Sentient Milieu spanned 500 light years and had more than 100 member-worlds. Seven of the member-races were well-known throughout the Milieu: the Drall, the Faz, the Mael-Num, the Taalo, the Ur-Quan, the Yuli, and the Yuptar. None of these races are still active with the exception of the Ur-Quan subspecies: the Kohr-Ah and the Kzer-Za. A light year, abbreviated ly, is the distance light travels in one year: roughly 9. ...

Precursor ruins and relics had been discovered on many worlds throughout the Milieu. It was the search for such things that led to the rapid dissipation of the Milieu. About 22,000 years before 2155, after anomalous energy readings led an Ur-Quan scout to believe that there might be a Precursor installation on an unexplored planet, he made planetfall. Before he could find the installation, though, he encountered the Dnyarri, who took control of his mind. The Dnyarri forced the scout to transport hundreds of them to the Sentient Milieu's capital planet. Within a month, the Dnyarri had spread across the entire Milieu, enslaving nearly every member race. As the Taalo, who were immune to the Dnyarri's psychic powers, rushed to complete a device that would provide similar immunity to the other Milieu races, the Dnyarri compelled those other races to destroy the Taalo. Without the Taalo device, the end of the Sentient Milieu was assured. The Ur-Quan are the main villains in the Star Control series of PC games. ...
