The story is set in a new era called Ad Stella (AS), where humanity has expanded into space.
Over time, a divide formed between the Spacians, who live in space colonies, and the
Earthians, who remain on Earth. This rift grew deeper due to economic inequality and rising
tension between the two sides.

At the heart of the conflict is Permet, a powerful material known for its information-linking
properties. Its discovery led to the development of advanced technologies, including Mobile
Suits. As megacorporations emerged to harness Permet for Spacian interests, the gap
between space and Earth only widened-both socially and politically.
