Weknow that in the borderlands series that corporations seem to a governmental entity with the ability to launch to put planets under marshal law.(info from Gage echo origin it mentions the Hyperion occupation Of Pandora.) The corporation in the borderlands universe seem to be so huge that they have literal armies at their disposal . Also in the pre-sequel on Hyperion where you see the founders of the company displayed all around with their bios , some caught my eye. One of them mention the fall of the central government , so was this how corporations got so powerful. So what I wanted to talk about s theories on what happen in the universe of borderlands , where is earth , how the corporations got so powerful and what was the central government and most of all considering there are vaults all over the galaxy have vaults been found on different planets?
At the end of Borderlands 2, the Vault of the Warrior revealed the locations of Vaults spread throughout either the Borderlands or the rest of the galaxy...so there ARE other Vaults besides the ones on Pandora. Pandora was simply one that was stumbled upon by Dahl, Atlas and Hyperion. And, I suspect, with the Vault of the Traveler, the Vault Hunters will be able to track and find these Vaults, which is what Tales/Borderlands 3 will focus on.
As to the fall of the central government and the power of the corporations, it is likely that they stumbled upon several Vaults already, giving them power and influence, which then tore the former government apart. Now, when another Vault is found, I imagine that every corporation wishes to claim it for themselves for absolute power, no matter who gets in the way.
Borderlands takes place in a different galaxy. As you pointed out, there are these Mega-Corps. that are competing for dominance in this said galaxy. Pandora is one of several planets found along the edge of the universe, hence the nickname "Borderlands". There is no mention of life or civilization before the Mega-Corps. took control. The only glimpse we have into the issue is an early mission from the first game where you collect Tannis' echoes where she states that Atlas became a superpower after discovering Eridian technology on Prometheus (this is never mentioned again). We don't know if this was a Vault or just a ruin, I'd lean towards the latter because Pandora's Vault is such a big deal in this galaxy. And we don't know how powerful this corps. were before this discovery. I'd think they still be classified as Mega-corps. cause without discovering Eridian tech, Dahl, Hyperion, and Torgue are massively influential and powerful. These Mega-corps seem to have early in their history grabbed hold of power, allowing for government to be kind of a Confederacy of Corps. (they compete against each other but they don't want to jeopardize controlling the population of the galaxy as a whole). Whichever corp. owns a planet, they get to enforce the law. Pandora, being a Borderland, is kind of open season. Like first Dahl shows up, massively unprepared to take over the planet, then Atlas throws it's hat in when Eridian artifacts are discovered, but after the first four Vault Hunters pretty much bankrupt it, Hyperion gets it's shot and are smart enough to not mess with the vault Hunters. And this is all before Jack even came to power. So he helped Hyperion fill the power vacuum after Atlas fell, but when he failed to conquer Pandora, it again became open to anyone but most corps. are wary enough to mess with Pandora anymore.
As for the popping up of Vaults across the galaxy, unless the events of Borderlands 2 cause another triggering, there is no reason to believe anyone outside the Raiders would be aware of the mass numbers of Vaults. So they have the edge in that regard. I've made a massive thesis in the "Borderlands 3 thread" about what I'd like/hope/expect from the next game. But I didn't focus too much on the Mega corps. so in short I believe; Vault Hunters and CR are going to probably wage war against the Mega-corps. probably Hyperion first, then move on to Dahl and Torgue. That probably will be enough to intimidate the others into backing away and might lead to a more diplomatic society throughout the galaxy.
A thought that occurred to me , was with ryse in the present setting was that he seemed rich , so what I think is that Hyperion rewards ryse and he gains power in the company. The reason I mention that is that Fiona is a vault hunter so when the war the alien mention happen Hyperion might provide support to the bla3 vault hunters through ryse. Just a thought would help give a reason for him being in borderlands 3
Each corporation Has a piece of his soul. His soul fragment is the power that each company uses to develop their technology. Atlas was the company that represented Ted's Military might, and Hyperion his knowledge (you get the point) The corporations went mad by the power granted upon their souls. They took over planets, and established what they thought was order using this power.

Thousands of years ago, it was a massive city square where daily political intrigues, commercial and business meetings, religious ceremonies, and all kinds of spectacular events took place in Rome. Get ready for a trip where you will discover the true historical treasure of the ancient Eternal City.
For centuries, the Roman Forum witnessed the great triumphs of the Roman Empire as well as its cruelties, rises, and falls. It was on the Roman Forum that the victorious generals announced their returns, which were spectacular multi-day parades through the city streets. I would give a lot to see that splendour and magnificence.
Beyond politics and intrigues, the Roman Forum was also a site for religious ceremonies and offerings to the gods. Ancient Romans had a whole collection of deities to whom they paid homage in numerous temples located in the immediate vicinity of the then-largest city square in the world.
Recent research indicates that in the area of the future Roman Forum in the 7th century BCE, there was a settlement with a large square in the middle, which served as a meeting place for the surrounding residents. The settlement was surrounded by marshes and swamps, leading to the construction of a sewage and drainage channel called the Cloaca Maxima, which, six centuries later, was modernized and buried underground. Interestingly, a portion of that channel, measuring 600 meters, still functions today, diverting excess water from Rome to the Tiber River.
The need for the construction of the Roman Forum as a central place in Rome was recognized by Tarquinius Priscus, the last Etruscan king of Rome. One of his greatest achievements was outlining the layout of the large square and building a temple on the Capitoline Hill, north of the Roman Forum. It was a temple dedicated to Jupiter, Minerva, and Juno, constructed in the Etruscan style. Over time, it became a model for almost all future temples in Rome.
The Roman Forum is believed to have acted as a link between several settlements situated among the seven hills of the present-day Eternal City. One of these settlements was called Rome, founded by Romulus, while another was the Sabine settlement ruled by Titus Tatius. After many years of conflict and negotiations, a single political entity emerged, with the Roman Forum at its centre.
The subsequent history of the grand Roman market was full of glory and splendour. The story of this place can be divided into three epochs, influenced by the changing political and religious situation in Rome. This evolution is evident in the structures that appeared on the Roman Forum over time.
During the period of the Roman Empire, the Roman Forum underwent expansion and enrichment with temples and several triumphal arches. Simultaneously, Rome and its surroundings were being developed. Around the same time, the Pantheon was constructed, and other forums emerged around the Roman Forum, including the Forum of Caesar, the Forum of Trajan, and the Forum of Nerva.
