World Demographics

Luriani, 100%

A significant minority of the cultural Luriani population are biological Solomani or Vilani. The Solomani, known as Veresti Dtareen (Terran Defenders) descend from Terran soldiers and administrators of the Rule of Man stranded during the Long Night, while the Vilani are known as Mmarislusant (Victims of History), and descend from stranded Vilani colonists. Both groups have absorbed much of Luriani culture and are seen both by themselves and the natives as being genuine Luriani.

World Languages

• Aaca
• Anglic
• Vilani

Aaca is short-form for Aaeebuany't' limmisdasca.

Verasti Dtareen speak a variant of Anglic known as Luriani Anglic or "Lurglic", while the Mmarislusant retain their language of Old High Vilani. The Luriani Cultural Association expends considerable effort to ensure that all three languages remain in use.

World Government

Akkaad is governed by Self-Perpetuating Oligarchy. A single family or small group provides the leadership and important positions in the government. These positions are inherited by member of the group or their family members. The organization may be a monarchy, with titles passed to family members, or a plutocracy where inheritance of the family fortune includes government position. Alternatively, the organization may be a more typical government apparatus, only with positions of power inherited.

World Law (L)

Akkaad has a moderate level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Personal concealable firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.

• Luriani like their police close to the communities they serve, and there is normally at least one community verasrasti (constable) per 800 individuals. They are expected to be familiar with the people they police.
• In addition to the normal law enforcement services, the Iadtlu militia is available to deal with emergencies in the case of either serious unrest or disaster.
• Justice and punishment are handled by trained arbiters, using an inquisitorial legal system. Both prosecution and defence are normally handled by state-employed advocates.
• The Luriani do not use capital punishment, nor can the Imperium apply the death penalty on a Luriani world for crimes against Imperial justice.
