The Human Wars are a series of three historical conflicts between humanity and other sapient species of the galaxy, all motivated by humanity's desire to conquer all others. Throughout them, humanity both conquered and allied with various other species, including UrDail, kitsen and figments, before their eventual defeat.[1][2] The precise timeline of the Wars is unknown, although the Third War ended about a century prior to Spensa's birth.[3]
The Human Wars have had a tremendous impact on the universe at large. Human languages, including English, Manadrin Chinese, Hindi and Spanish, are still commonly spoken throughout the galaxy, and are commonly carried by translator pins.[1] Moreover, delvers were first summoned by humans during the Second War, and continue to be a threat, leading to a change in how cytonics are perceived and used.[4]
The Wars have also led to vast political upheavals. In their aftermath, the surviving humans were confined to a number of preserves, such as Detritus.[4] The Superiority, too, arose as a result of the Wars, becoming the dominant political power of the known universe thanks to its stranglehold on faster-than-light travel and communication.[5][1]
