 Terran (StarCraft) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Terrans are the name given to the human colonists in the StarCraft universe used to distinguish them from the humans of Earth.
The Terrans have found themselves in the middle of a war between the Protoss and the Zerg, and have struggled to survive amidst the war while also dealing with civil wars.
Ahead of the initial campaign there is a prelude-campaign which outlines the Confederacy stamping out a Korhal-initiated rebellion and the discovery of their research specimens, the Zerg, referred to as "Xenomorphs", on the planet of Chau Sara.

 Strategy Gaming Online - Strategy Guides : Starcraft Brood War
The Terrans are an interesting race in that they do not strictly conform to either the "mass numbers / sledgehammer" principles of the Zerg, nor the "tech / micromanagement" doctrines of the Protoss.
Terran vs Terran is basically a tanks rush early on, as a single bunker at a choke point can hold off an awful lot of marines, and as such rushing isn't an option.
It is the terran's counter to the ground-based tech of all other races, and in many ways it is the best siege unit in the game (quite an achievement considering the competition from guardians and reavers).

 Terran Empire - Star Trek Expanded Universe Database
The Terran Empire was the repressive interstellar government dominated by the Terrans from Earth and the mirror universe counterpart of the United Federation of Planets.
The Terran Empire's initial growth beyond the Sol system was due in large part to Vulcan technology that the Terrans took from them after Zefram Cochrane's first contact (2063) and presumably from other defeated races; thus, the mirror universe Starfleet became somewhat more advanced than its regular counterpart.
In Star Trek Mirror Wars, a new Terran Empire, the second Terran Empire, was built by the 27th century and had destroyed the Klingons and Cardassians.

 RPGnet: Review of Terran Empire
Terran Empire gives us the history, the peoples, the enemies, the professions, the ships, the weapons, the secrets, and the dirty underwear of a galactic empire, and thus is a very stuffed book.
Terran Empire is a very solid setting, full of good crunch, nice history, and an iconic space opera feeling that will make even casual fans of the genre feel right at home.
Terran Empire continues the tradition of Champions Universe by giving us a setting that is detailed enough to be interesting, but wide open and malleable enough to let GMs and Players still take their story in the direction they want it to go.

During the Fujiwara expedition, Terran scientists encountered an extremely powerful lifeform similar in many ways to human insects, with the slight exception that the smallest of them were several feet tall.
The arachnids, as they later became known, were responsible for massive devastation on Terran colonies, as they would hurl spores towards other planets, which would burst open hatching thousands of warrior bugs to wipe out all existing life.

 Terran Confederacy Soldier OCC
From its origin on Tarsonis, the Terran Confederacy has ruled with an iron fist, but the iron in that fist relied on the legions of marines under the command of the leaders of the Terran Confederacy.
These soldiers, many drug addicts, were very loyal to the leadership of the Terran Confederacy, often because they were the ones that provided safety and security of the soldiers' families, although in many cases the loyalty stemmed from the simple fact that the Terrain Confederacy provided drugs to the soldiers.
The Terran Confederacy, and by extention the Terran Dominion, used a typical military structure for their soldiers, but they have three branches: the Marine Corps, the Navy, and the Air Force.

 History of the Terran Confederacy
In the end, the Terran Confederacy "negotiated" a peace with the Kel-Morian Combine that allowed the corporation to remain independent and in control of Moria, but almost all other established mining colonies were annexed by the Terran Confederacy.
As a witness to the blatant abuse of power from the Terran Confederacy, the Umoja colony founded the Umojan Protectorate, a nationalized militia that would be used to protect their colonies from attacks from the Terran Confederacy.
In desperation, the Terran Confederacy sent over a thousand of their apocalypse-class nuclear weapons to Korhal and within a few seconds, the once beautiful planet and its population of 4,000,000 was leveled, leaving only flened glass and the memories of the dead.

Propaganda however conveyed the message that things were going in the Empire's favor and that the war would be over soon.
