Duchy of Vincennes

Imperial duchy comprising all the systems in Vincennes Subsector.

Description (Specifications)

The Duchy of Vincennes was created in 243 and the Marquisate of Vincennes was created in at the same time.

• Its proximity to Vincennes means that Northammon, although arguably a powerful world in its own right, is a useful pawn of the Duke.
• The Marquises Frisgar, Achemadon, and Alaungpaya also serve the Duke of Vincennes.
• The County of Dekha is in an interesting position. Dekha lacks a good starport but is an economic powerhouse nonetheless, and is far enough from Vincennes to have a degree of autonomy. In short, it had a relatively stable bargaining position within the Duchy of Vincennes, and is the base from which the subsector exerts influence on Gulf, Zeng and Kamlar.
• Factors from Inar, Sabine and elsewhere attempt to dabble in or sabotage the political process in Vincennes, due to its potentially overwhelming power.
