The Code of Times was first made at the dawn of the Friendly Aliens civilisation. It is a simple code of rules which all Friendly Aliens especially their leaders are expected to follow.

1) All are to respect all others especially elders.

2) Never ever murder, steal from or hurt your follow Alien.

3) Never ever fall from grace and go against the wishes of your superiors and in turn superiors should never abuse their power over others.

4) Always think twice of the consequences before your actions.

5) Feel free to tell others of your views but never impose.

6) Never underestimate the power of knowledge.

All those that go against these rules are no longer Friendly Aliens but fools that go against the name and so they will be treated like fools.



In stricter terms those which do break these rules are given differing punishments. Those which break rules 1, 4, 5 and 6 are punishing themselves. Those who break rule 3 are subject demotion or serious fines (depending on the seriousness of the crime). If anybody breaks the sacred rule 2 they will be given anything up to death.



In modern day Friendly Aliens crime used to be common especially youth related because the Friendly Alien society had effectively crumbled after Planetfall. However due to massive social and educational reforms crime has been reduced significantly to the point that Friendly Aliens used to be before Planetfall. Those that break the Code of Times second rule has fallen to about 1000 a year but that has mainly been among the immigrant population.
