(Dheronian was a race that had a war with Krypton in Earth One Universe not to be confused with the main Universe known as Earth Prime/ Earth Zero)
Earth One
Superman's Origins
There was once a world that was known as Krypton which was the home world for a technology advance race called Kryptonian's that were governed by the ruling council however Krypton had always had a bad relationship with the Dheronian who were from the world known as Dheron which was a nearby world to Krypton and they hated each other simply because of their various differences, such as Democracy vs Monarchy and how life should be lived which eventually led to a war between the two worlds.
The war between Krypton and Dheron lasted for many years with casualties in the thousands so the ruling council of Krypton and the monarchy of Dheron finally call a end to the war however not everyone wanted the war to end because they wish to avenge their fallen friends and family like General Dru-Zod who was a distinguished soldier in the Kryptonian military like almost all members from House of Zod and he wanted to avenge the lives of all of Kryptonian's that had been killed by the Dheronian's.
Dru-Zod believed that the ruling council was weak and Krypton needed a stronger leadership meaning himself and Dru-Zod became even more certain of this when he discovered that the ruling council had a secret weapon that they could use to completely destroy the Dheronian and won the war for Krypton and it was a creature known as Doomsday who possessed unimaginable power and bloodlust.
Many years ago on Krypton there was a civil war that was started by a rebel group calling itself Black Zero so houses that were members of Krypton's science council like the House of El work together to create Doomsday to put a end to the civil war and protect Krypton however their creation proved too violent to be controlled and too powerful to be destroyed so the ruling council of Krypton at the time used a device which was created by Seg-El call the Phantom Zone Projector which can send anyone or anything to the Phantom Zone an interdimensional realm outside the normal space/time continuum which would later become a prison where the council would send the worse criminals making Doomsday it's first ever inmate.
The current ruling council was too afraid to unleash Doomsday from the Phantom Zone on to Dheron fearing that what if they did free Doomsday but couldn't be able to send him back to the Phantom Zone and the creature may also end up destroying them as well. Dru-Zod gathered everyone who also share in his vision for a grand military government Krypton and they call themselves the 'Sword of Rao' after their god Rao however the ruling council was able to out a stop to them thanks to the help from Jor-El who was the son of Seg-El, one of Krypton's greatest scientists and former best friend of Dru-Zod.
Afterwards the ruling council sentenced Dru-Zod and most of his followers to the Phantom Zone but not before Dru-Zod vowed vengeance and claimed that they have doomed Krypton however unknown to everyone Dru-Zod and his wife Ursa secretly had a child but not though natural means as they were unable to have children so during Dru-Zod's rebellion he had Jax-Ur built a Birthing Matrix which was a chamber where Kryptonian children were artificially created and raised in separate from their parents until they reach a certain age and in return Dru-Zod promised Jax-Ur a place on Dru-Zod's new ruling Council of Krypton.
The Birthing Matrix used the genetic material from Dru-Zod and Ursa to create a son Lor-Zod and before Dru-Zod was finally caught by the the ruling council Dru-Zod had sent Lor-Zod away on a spaceship that was also built Jax-Ur by which he secretly plan to use escape Krypton if he had lost his rebellion but instead decided to use it to sent Lor-Zod to another world call Earth which was populated by humans who look identical to Kryptonian's meaning that Lor-Zod would be able to blend in with the inhabitants and because Eartn had a yellow sun unlike Krypton's which had a red sun and there were side effects on Kryptonian Physiology which were the yellow sun radiation granted Kryptonian's incredible powers.
The war had left both Krypton and Dheron defences were weaken and neither of them were unprepared when Brainiac which was a artificial intelligence machine from the Planet Colu that was originally meant to gather date and study all forms of life however it went rogue and left the Planet Colu knowing that if it stay it's creator and the other scientists would be able to destroy it and once it left Planet Colu it created itself a space and a physical body which it designed to look like it's creator Vril Dox and gave itself a new name Brainiac and continue it's original mission to gather knowledge which has led it to create a device that struck cities ane people so Brainiac could transportation the small orbs on its Skull Ship so Brainiac could continually study and exterminate it.
Brainiac choose Krypton first simply because it was even more weaken then Dheron because of the lost of Dru-Zod and his followers and when Brainiac arrive it chose Krypton's greatest city Kandor to be added to it's collation and sent it's drones to gather everyone who it thought was useful and those who it didn't were killed while Brainiac hack into every computer system of Krypton and downloaded all of it's knowledge and once Brainiac was finish it then fired a blast from it's Skull Ship into the Planet's core triggering it's destruction like it has done to every other world it has come to as Brainiac wanted to make the knowledge that it had gathered only available to itself and Brainiac then travel to Dheron to repeat what it had just done.
However before Krypton's destruction Jor-El had found out about Brainiac but when Jor-El try to warn the ruling council they simply ignored his pleas for evacuation and later expelled him from Krypton's science guild so with the little of restores that Jor-El had he was able build a small spaceship and on the day that Brainiac had arrive, Jor-El and his wife Lara Lor-Van sent their baby son Kal-El to Planet Earth as well as he was the one who discovered it because years ago Jor-El had sent out a satellite into space and thanks to it Jor-El found it but during that time he and Dra-Zod were still close friends so Jor-El told him about it.
Jor-El also made sure that Kal-El would know about his family's legacy by giving him a special Crystal which could transform into a large fortress that contained many of Kryptonian technologies and a special orb which Jor-El originally created for the Council back during the war against Daxam with it purpose being able to contain a large amount of knowledge as the Council intended to use it to copy all of Daxam's knowledge so Jor-El use it to copy all of Krypton's knowledge before Brainiac downloaded it into itself.
However Kal-El wasn't the only Kryptonian that was sent off Krypton before it's destruction as his cousin Kara-Zor-El was also sent to Earth as well thanks to her father Zor-El who was Jor-El younger brother as he believed his older brother's warring so he also built a spaceship as well which he and his wife Alura In-Ze place their daughter inside and put her into a cryo sleep and as they sent her to Earth they told her to have a good life as well as protect Kal-El however when Krypton exploded it caused Kara's spaceship to be knock off course meaning that her ship wouldn't arrive on Earth at the same time as Kal-El.
Dru-Zod had a half brother who's name was Van-Zod as they shared the same mother Lyta-Zod but they had different fathers where Van-Zod's was Dev-Em who was Lyta-Zod's husband while Dru-Zod didn't know who his father was, Van-Zod was also a close friend of Jor-El and he didn't side with his half brother during his rebellion against the ruling council. Van-Zod also believed Jor-El's warring so he use the spaceship that Jax-Ur had built for himself to escape in case Dru-Zod had lost but Jax-Ur was caught by Van-Zod before he could escape Krypton's destruction and was sent to the Phantom Zone and during Brainiac's attack Van-Zod and his wife place their son Val-Zod inside and put him into a cryo sleep and as they sent him to Earth but just like with Kara Val-Zod's ship it was be knock off course meaning that his ship wouldn't arrive on Earth at the same time as Kal-El.
When Kal-El's spaceship reach Earth it landed in the United States of America in Kansas near the small town known as Smallville where he was found by Jonathan and Martha Kent who were farmers and they were on their way home from the doctor's after finding out they sadly unable to have children of their own so when they found the baby Kal-El in his spaceship they decided to adopt him and gave him the name Nolan Joseph Kent with them choosing Nolan because it was name they would used if they were able to have children and they raised Nolan as their own and teaching him their values.
However unknown to the Kent's someone else knew the truth and his name was Abin Sur a member of the Green Lantern Corps and he was one of it's greatest members and the protector Sector 2814 which was the part of space where Earth exist and his Power Ring had informed him that something was heading towards the Earth he went to investigate it but when he saw Jonathan and Martha take the baby Kryptonian back home with them Abin Sur knew that they would take care of the baby so he didn't report it back to the rest of the Corp and Guardians thinking they might order him to take the child.
Nolan Kent grew up happily thanks to his good parents and he had great friends like Lana Lang, Chloe Sullivan and Pete Ross and Jonathan and Martha eventually told Nolan the truth of his origins when he was old enough however Nolan had always know that he was different from everyone else because of his incredible powers which he secretly used to help his family on the farm but only there as Jonathan told Nolan that other people may be afraid of him because of his powers or the fact that he was a alien.
On the night of Smallville High prom both Jonathan and Martha were driving home where they were also crash into another car and Nolan heard Martha's scream because of his super-hearing and with his super-speed Nolan rush over to save them however he was to last and Nolan blame himself as he thought that if he wasn't scare to use his powers then maybe he wouldn't be late so he vowed to truly master his powers so that when he tries to save someone then he won't fail.
Nolan then travelled the world for a bit until he used the special Crystal that Jor-El had given him to create the fortress at the Bermuda Triangle and had it combine with the orb of knowledge as all forms of Kryptonian technology was capable of merging with any other forms of Kryptonian technology as well as most technologies that isn't Kryptonian.
Nolan eventually moved to the big city known as Metropolis where he became a reporter for the Daily Planet and it was in Metropolis where Nolan became the superhero known as Superman because of the symbol on Nolan's Superman costume which was Kryptonian armour and it had the symbol for the House of El on the chest which looked like a 'S' inside a diamond shape shield.
