History and Background[edit]

World Starport[edit]

Akgakhong has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Timeline[edit]

Major events that have affected this world and the wider region that it lies within include the following:

  • -1711: Near the end of the Vargr Pillaging, the proto-Ovaghoun conquer the world of Ikon.
    • Over time, the local Vilani culturally overrun their Vargr overlords, reshaping the Ovaghoun Vargr into a distinct, almost hybridised culture.
  • -55: The Mmoannikh Accords between representatives of Logaksu Vargr and Ovaghoun Vargr societies ends a series of conflicts between the two cultures.
    • The Accords are rejected by the central Ikonaz government, leading to a shattering of the unity of the Ovaghoun.
  • 175-191: The Julian War, which sees numerous attacks on Ikon, all of which fail in breaking the homeworld of the Ovaghoun.
  • Circa 723: The Association of Good Wolves, the current government of Ikon, encourages the emigration of the working (i.e. Irilitok Vargr) classes to other, nearby worlds -- going so far as to subsidise 70% of the cost involved.
  • Circa 937-940: The Fellowship of Nobles, the current Ikonaz government, collapses.
  • 942: The Julian Protectorate and the Hegemony of Lorean formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Protectorate.
    • The Rukadukaz insist upon a 'buffer zone' of neutral systems between their territory and the Loreans.
