Culture & Society (Ethnology)

The clans of the Aokhalte power bloc are currently faced with overpopulation problems. Quickly running out of land on habitable worlds, the ihatei of this bloc have had to settle for space in places such as the interiors of asteroids. The dissatisfaction among these clans gave impetus for the new rush to colonize Imperial worlds by the Aorlakht. As a result, they face wars with the Tralyeaeawi and the Ikhtealyo blocs.

Perhaps because of the overcrowding, these clans face much internal strife. Members tend to be touchy. Duels are frequent. Interfamily feuds are also common and are bloodier than among other clans.

Due to the high costs of interstellar transportation it is not possible to solve overpopulation problems by emigration, especially not emigration to worlds far away. The Aokhalte bloc's clan kos are either stupid or (more likely) trying desperately to calm their members with ineffectual cosmetic measures, making their overcrowding problems worse by pouring money into ihatei fleets. Not a stable situation.
