History & Background (Dossier)

Except for a few corporations pre-dating the Imperium (e.g. Achenaar Antilles Line, GSbAG, Kirgaasanakka Publishing, Ling-Standard Products, Makhidkarun, Naasirka, Sharurshid, Zirunkariish), all corporations engaging in interstellar commerce are required to possess such a charter. This is indicated by the letters LIC following the company name.

Outside of Imperial Space

The idea of business charters is not common to all sophontic species, and many of the major and minor races do not possess a similar cultural institution.
