hehe, this would be rather long and in depth for the likes of us. Where did we come from etc and how we evolved may be diffrent for each species and such... Or some of us may have started in a lab and started to breed. Actualy, this is a very interestign topic... *goes off to develop this farther*

This is actually an interesting thing to tackle really. I know Lemuriania has a creation myth of sorts. For my country most of its 'native' citizens migrated to the current area from another nation that very ooc never actually existed in nation states but makes for interesting history none the less.
But I guess we should probably start with, what exists outside of the federation? The federation is home to a small minority of humans and I and others have discussed previously outside human invaders (mainly the DEN invasion and K IX having been colonized during the second world war by humans). These suggest that a world similar to the modern human world exists beyond our coasts. But it also suggests that the modern human would yet to have the capabilities to create furs and the like. However if a previous human or non-human civilization controlled much of the world before recorded history, then they might of had the technology/magic needed for genetic manipulation.
So we have then 4 possibilities:
1. Natural evolution - difficult to explain why so many furs evolved at the same time but not impossible 2. Tech/magic creation by outside forces/entities/peoples 3. Tech/magic creation by forces/entities/peoples from our countient - possibly one group of furs that evolved or some such (such as giraffs evolved first and then did something to create all the other furs or something) 4. Something I haven't thought of
Of course there is a 5th possibility, a combination of the first four for different species and the like.
But I would like to say two things on the subject:
First the back history of a species and more importantly the uncovering of the origions of that species might make for a good plot.
Second I'd probably defer a particular species background to a nation who has a majority of their populace as that species. Which kind of rules my nation out due to its cosmopolitan nature, hehe.

Right now I'm leaning towards the inside story being us geneticaly modified by some group and the common story that we were created by God that way which is a lot easier on the people.

Well things like that aren't exactly established right now as far as I know.
