The Tevarin Purge was a movement sparked in the immediate aftermath of the Second Tevarin War, in which the Tevarin voluntarily severed connection with their culture. They destroyed records, denounced the Rijoran code, tore down temples, and obliterated other aspects of the civilization that had previously defined and ultimately failed them. Most Tevarin abandoned their homeworld and assimilated into the United Empire of Earth (UEE), and a tiny minority disappeared into unknown parts of space. The majority of preserved records about the former Tevarin way of life only exist thanks to Human and Xi'an interference.
Beginning in the early 30th century SEY, there has been a growing movement among Tevarin to reconnect with their former culture and language.
