The Zeus Galaxy is the smallest and most-distant of the Milky Way Galaxy's main 4 satellite galaxies, despite this being by far the most developed and populated of the four as it is fully developed by interstellar civilisations. The Zeus Galaxy is by far dominated by the "Anemoi Network", a vast artificial intelligence spanning across the galaxy that has inhabited it far longer than any other beings within it, with it being the sole survivor of an invasion by The Quhanim several hundred thousand years in the past which left all other species extinct. Despite its origins as a war-like intelligence that wiped out its creators, Anemoi learned to care for other beings and decided to ensure that such a fate could never happen again, prompting it to guide the other civilisations in its journeys as most interstellar sapient species within the Zeus Galaxy opted into becoming its protectorates in return for assistance and benefits. Only three civilisations refused to become protectorates of Anemoi, with these being the Tienni Republic, Yannic Union, and Eytherian Republic. Beyond Quhanim, the only other extragalactic 'civilisation' to visit the Zeus Galaxy is HAWK, who studied the galaxy and conversed with Anemoi under the psuedonym 'Nomad'.
The Zeus Galaxy is inaccessible to most interstellar civilisations due to fuel shortages and travel times, leaving only the few civilisations capable of intergalactic travel such as HAWK and The Quhanim able to visit it without the usage of centuries-long generation ships (something that the Anemoi Network had in fact made use of in the past). Despite this, the Zeus Galaxy still possesses internal astrographic divisions that define it by five quadrants; the 'Alpha Quadrant' to the south, the 'Beta Quadrant' to the east, the 'Gamma Quadrant' to the north, the 'Delta Quadrant' to the west, and the 'Core Quadrant' in the middle. Another more commonly used method to divide the Zeus Galaxy is the Grid Coordinate system, dividing it into equally sized squares ranging from A-H in the X axis and 1-7 on the Z axis.
