History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
It has a rich tradition and a long history. The Spinward Marches have been the site of many conflicts and serve as a crossroads between large empires. As such the Darrians have sought alliances to protect their interests. When diplomacy fails they have assembled a powerful fleet to keep ambitious (mainly Sword Worlds Confederation) commanders from getting any ideas.
There have been several wars between the Sword Worlds and the Darrians. Neither the Zhodani Consulate nor the Imperium have ever gone to war with the Darrian Confederation directly. The Darrians have maintained a long-term blockade at Garoo (Spinward Marches 0130) and Client States in the Reidain Subsector.
