Abstract: We construct uncountably many discrete groups of type $FP$; in particular we construct groups of type $FP$ that do not embed in any finitely presented group. We compute the ordinary, $el{l}^2$- and compactly-supported cohomology of these groups. For each $ngeq4$ we construct a closed aspherical $n$-manifold that admits an uncountable family of acyclic regular coverings with non-isomorphic covering groups.
