Subsector A of the Hinterworlds Sector.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
Here the Imperium must contend with the troublesome Ral Ranta.
Almost all of the Ral Ranta Empire consists of clans or tribes of closely related families. Other government structures exist, but the underlying political power resides with the larger and more powerful clans. Any system in the Empire might have one or more dominant clans running it. How they choose to do so varies, and this is reflected in the different government classifications given by the IISS. When in a Ral Ranta system, though, knowing what clan(s) run things is more important than knowing what sort of government is present.
The Adar Subsector is defended by 224th Fleet.

Adar, subsector A of Hinterworlds, contains 24 worlds with an estimated combined population of 482 million, a per capita income of Cr1,537, and a total economy of BCr741. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr154 through 19 starports (5 Class A, 5 Class B, 6 Class C, 3 Class D) employing 30,485 people. Driving this interstellar trade are no Agricultural (Ag) worlds, three Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, three Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Adar maintain five Military bases and four Naval bases. The average technology level is 8 (with most between 6 and 10). The highest technology level is 13 at Deymun Na (Hinterworlds 0210) and Boilingbrook (Hinterworlds 0801).
Adar, subsector A of Hinterworlds, contains 36 stars and 281 identified planets; 13 monostellar systems, ten binary systems, one trinary system, and no systems with four or more stars. 21 of the 24 systems (87%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, no Desert (De) worlds, no Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, three Poor (Po) worlds, five Vacuum (Va) worlds, and two Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.
Adar has an estimated population of 482 million distributed across no High population (Hi) worlds, one Moderate population (Ph) world, 15 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, five Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Luggi (Hinterworlds 0605). The population consists primarily of 1 sophont group.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The current Ral Ranta Empire is the remnant of what was once a much more powerful state. When the Imperium recontacted the Ral Ranta after the Long Night, the two engaged in low level hostilities for decades. The Ral Ranta, lacking both technology and manpower, turned to guerrilla warfare and intrigue to maintain their independence. In the centuries that followed, the Ral Ranta Empire became a collection of “clans” under central leadership from Berange. The Imperium and Solomani see little value in invading and occupying Ral Ranta space, knowing they would face an endless guerrilla campaign of resistance. Instead, both now use the Ral Ranta to carry out black ops and intrigues against their enemies.
