Yeah, that's the case with all non-Megacorp Commercial pact offers.
These Democratic Crusaders apparently forgot they're not a MegaCorp.
I don't remember if Megacorp commercial pacts do or don't use something more suitable for standard empires.
This is probably one of the best naturally spawning planets I've ever found. And since then, I've colonized it. Good amount of districts, large size, and all 3 main strategic resource deposits.

If it was 1 size bigger it'd be a life-seeded start. Also, please tell me you named it Praise RNGesus.
That's what I thought, and no.If it was 1 size bigger it'd be a life-seeded start. Also, please tell me you named it Praise RNGesus.
But keeping in line with my other planets, I should re-name it Divine RNG 
So the CoM had invaded a primitive planet, enslaved the population, and brought some of them back to the Deneb system's three planets to use as slave labor. I got this message a few years later:
Naturally, I accepted. Which gave me control of the system's starbase...
...And, ultimately, the system itself and its other planets.
And that's how I conquered the CoM's capital system without firing a shot. Thanks, Orassians!

And an active volcano for your supervillain lair. You know, when you decide you need a supervillain lair.
In my current playthrough I spawned near a pair of very angry empires, and a vanilla machine intelligence. Well, a rivalry with very angry empire #1 matched the rivalry of the machine intelligence, and the machines became very friendly, Federationing me just a couple decades into the game. Fast forward through a couple shared wars, some friendly border gore, rescuing their metallic butts from the Great Khan (who spawned between us), conquering the remnants of the Great Khan's short lived-empire and granting back all the machine intelligence's former holdings...
...I get a message from some rebels of the machine intelligence's empire. They'd like their freedom please, and my egalitarian empire looks quite friendly. So I get a planet. Then the starbase. Then the other two planets. Well, okay then. That was weird. Let's see what I ended up with.
Wait...
What.
No, seriously.
WHAT?!

There are so many things wrong with this picture. Why is this supposed Gaia world covered in metal? Why are hundreds of xenos in line for assimilation but somehow unemployed???
Why are there like 15 different species concentrated on this one planet?!?!
I can answer some of that.
The 37 undesirable pops that are being purged are the machine intelligence's native drones. The 722 assimilating pops are all the organics crammed on the planet that are now turning cyborg because of my empire's species rights (convert all non-cyborgs).
Why are there so many of them?! How did they all get there? How the heck did the machine empire ever support so many organics? How did they ever support so mamy one on planet? Why are the pops all so happy about being assimilated? (The other two planets immediately dropped to 0 stability because of the masses of assimilating pops)
Were the Robot Friends rogue servitors and the gaia world their bio trophy stash?
So I got the Dathnak anomaly, and they pleaded me to transport them from their dying world of Tollok Rong to the new world... Tollok Rong. They had me 'transport' them to the planet they were already on and just renamed it to Baldarak. Guess that radiation wasn't as bad as they claimed...
