Duchy of Usani
One of the duchies of politically volatile Deneb Sector.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
The Duchy of Usani contains the sector capital, Deneb, but is actually politically and economically weak compared to many of Deneb Sector's other duchies. Its position on the edge of the Great Rift provides security, but also limits trade from the Imperial heartland.
The Denebian Duchies[edit]
There is no Sector Duke in Deneb. Differences of opinion or agenda between the sector's seven duchies are settled by way of diplomacy or force. Major worlds build and maintain Deneb's capital fleets, but these fleets are all Imperial by default and are not used for resolving internal, regional disputes. This is an Imperial law, put into effect after the Civil War period. As a result, Dukes in the Deneb Sector only have a small percentage of a duchy's resources available for resolving local conflict. Each Duke maintains a number of small starships for various purposes but it is always more cost effective to hire companies and mercenaries for general-purpose commercial and tactical work. It is also common for a duchy to sell Letters of Marque and Reprisal to accomplish certain general objectives. The duchies live in a milieu of shifting alliances, as each acts and reacts to the changing political and business climate of the sector.
Usani Politics (specifics)[edit]
As much as possible, Usani prefers to ally with the Duchy of Inar against the Duchy of Vincennes within the power struggle of Deneb's nobility. However, its weak position means that its stance must sometimes shift, with Usani often doing what it has to rather than purely acting in its own best interests.
