The boxed set of the game had about eight or so pages of history which can be summarized as...France avoids total destruction, rebuilds its empire, not much happens, FTL travel is discovered, humans colonize some worlds, not much happens, big war fought in Central Asia, France becomes an empire, Kafers discovered, war!

Basically, the detail is so limited and contradicted in a few supplements that there have been some really nasty disagreements over canon within the 2300AD fan community. The new 2320 AD tried to fix a few of the most glaring problems but still has some major problems (including an untimely death because the company producing it basically abandoned it.)

There are a few fan pages, the best being http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~dh...min/Index1.htm , that have filled in some of the back story.

Hope this helped.
