World Government (G)

Aulryakh is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.

Military

The importance of the port at Aulryakh means that many Aslan Clans want to be seen as having contributed; to not have a ship at Aulryakh is a sign of political impotence. The fleet at Aulryakh thus tends to be large but even less unified than most multi-clan Aslan forces. Elements of the fleet make forays coreward into Aslan territories on this side of the rift, and semi-regular patrols are maintained to worlds on the jump-5 route and those close to the riftshore.
