People were leaving the planet to colonize space, because the general basis of EVE has been drained of serviceable resources. Folk spread throughout the Milky Way and throughout the universe in the
EVE game, till resources were once again contested and wars broke out. Luckily, it found the solution to this problem that was a natural wormhole, thru which another universe may be found. The EVE Gate, a synthetic wormhole was built to link the galaxies when it was found that the natural wormhole was infirm.
The
EVE Gate played an effective role, severing the universes and dooming millions of colonies that were unprepared to do without the resources that had come through the wormhole to death, when the original wormhole crumpled nevertheless. This created a long Dark Age from which only 5 colonies managed to appear as empires, of which 4 are available to player characters. In the game, you choose one of these 4 empires to come from, and it'll inform your selection of ships and resources at the beginning.
The Amarr are the 1st and most complicated race that can be played, who were the first of the colonies to rediscover space travel. They executed the task to spread their thoughts and ideals to the remainder of the galaxy and in this; they need the help of the Minmatar, who were more primitive and not so complicated when it came to interstellar travel. The whole Imperial Navy of Amarr was devastated, after a confrontation with the Gallente and the Jove (the latter being the non-playable race). The Gallante were at war for almost a century with the Caldari Empire, and tensions between them continue to this day.
