"The new cultural synthesis became known as Technic civilization, successor of Western civilization as Western had been of Classical."

Anderson's Technic future history chronicles an imagined interstellar human civilization. Consisting of the adventures of Nicholas van Rijn and David Falkhayn, Traders of the Polesotechnic (from the Greek for "selling-arts") League, and the later adventures (though sometimes written earlier) of Dominic Flandry, Agent of the Terran Empire — as well as stories from the period prior to the League, during the "Time of Troubles" between the collapse of the League and the founding of the Empire, and from the "Long Night" which follows the demise of the Empire — the Technic future history spans a period of over five thousand years.
