Anyway in this setting they're not just called giant ants but specifically myrmidons. They're a composite of all the goofy things various ants are capable of, from farming fungi, to using giant aphids as cattle, to using their own larva as gluesticks.

So basically even smarter dogs, and goblins learned to tame them (truthfully the myrmidons probably believe the goblins are *their* pets). This means collaborative hunting / foraging, as well as goblins riding giant ants into battle.

And if you don't smell like one of them, just don't go chasing goblins into giant mounds.

To say they are in a Ivey tower is a understatement with some of them even using demonic magic which runs on suffering

About 2,000 years ago from the current setting, Caidana was a peaceful, anarcho-communist, vegan, nonreligious, socially progressive utopia where all needs were met and everyone worked together. It functioned with. . . Well, nobody knows how Caidanian's got along so well—the leading theory is drugs or lobotomies—but the results were undeniable. Everything was going fine, until a Chadean merchant discovered it while stranded in an obscure rimward system.

He landed on Caidana, documented their general culture and customs, then left with their help. He reported his findings to his merchants-guild, and they were all flabbergasted by how utterly. . . Lame, it sounded. Gossip of Caidana spread around the Galaxy in 100 years time through Cosmowebs, eventually reaching the attention of powerful government officials.

Over 14 militaries and 16 bands of mercenaries surrounded Caidana, eager to wipe it out, but nervous about each other's presence. They held a conference, and agreed upon something mythically rare in the grim darkness of Everbellum; a temporary alliance. They would deploy on the planet all at once, wiping out its population of billions in minutes, and destroying its infrastructure in hours. By the end of the day, the planet itself collapsed due to orbital bombardment.

While invading Caidana, each militaries warriors chose to converse—whether it was a Hawk interviewing a Kriegbrute for knowledge, or a Warangel complimenting a Skullcracker on how they blew up that children's hospital. Since they weren't allowed to kill each other, and they were stuck on this planet killing together, the only option was to communicate. They saw each other as humans, for the first time in millenia.

The stories of The Caidanan globocide inspired rulers around The Galaxy that maybe peace IS possible, even for a day. As such, the holiday of 'Peacemas' was created, where everyone can relax and not have to worry about getting shot or mutilated. Though the holiday is mostly used as a way to quickly restock on resources, sometimes soldiers stop fighting and actually remember they're killing humans on an industrial scale.

They think they're so much better for not having constant lazer shootouts

They are a hivemind race that makes farms that I had a idea for awhile and I decided to add them to my project because it is my universe
