[[Gushemege Sector]] is a core sector full of old wealth and settlement. 
* When the [[Vilani]] arrived, the area already had several established [[sophont]] [[civilization]]s, and was a focal point of the [[Consolidation Wars]]. Some local resentment of Imperial authority still exists several thousand years later.
* This area is bordered by the [[Great Rift]].
 
=== Meta-History & Background (Credits): 2019-0515 ===
''Gushemege Sector'' was originally designed by [[Marc W. Miller]] and appears in {{CT}} [[Atlas of the Imperium]] ([[GDW]], 1984). 
* [[David Burden]] of the {{HIWG}} contributed much additional data to the sector, some of which is considered not [[canon]].
* It was further refined by [[Martin Dougherty|Martin J. Dougherty]] and appears in [[New Era 1248 Sourcebook 2: Bearers of the Flame]] (ComStar Media/Avenger Enterprises, 2006).

== Description ([[Specifications]]) ==
Despite the sector's great [[sophont]] diversity, the area has long been culturally dominated by great powers. Between the [[Ziru Sirka]] and the [[Rule of Man]], the only independence the area ever experienced was in the pre-[[Vilani]] period. Despite this cultural hegemony, the area is incredibly diverse with rich [[civilization]]s, many [[language]]s, and vibrant trade networks.

== Politics & Diplomacy (Interstellar Relations) ==
Gushemege is an Imperial stronghold, but it still has considerable internal dissent and a very complex and turbulent political interplay of its many quarreling factions. The region contains several [[Imperial Cultural Region]]s with several sophont species also aspiring for greater recognition. The local [[Imperial Nobility]] are far less humanocentric than in many other sectors due to the considerable demographics of nonhumans. [[Graytch]], [[S'mrii]], and [[Droyne]] tend to dominate sector politics although humans from the [[Lancian]] faction as well as mainstream Imperials still hold considerable sway. In addition, the [[Aslan Hierate]] maintains a number of embassies and trade missions within the sector. The [[Imperial Aslan]] clans, well-established societies dating back to the Long Night, remain of considerable interest to greater Aslan society.
