Description (Specifications)[edit]
The polity of the Evantha. The 17 worlds of the cluster around the Evantha homeworld made up the Protectorate. Technically all are now independent Imperial members, but they retain cultural, racial and political similarities, and the Spiral Path political-religious party is in power on most of them.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
During the collapse of the Rule of Man, the local Terran governor forged an alliance with native Evantha forces and carved out a pocket empire of his own. Their legacy, the Evantha Protectorate, lasted until it was contacted by the expanding Third Imperium, which incorporated it.
The ranking Imperial noble in the Evantha Protectorate is the Marquis of Treydotha (named for the main downport on Temeraire). This is an appointed rather than a hereditary post. The Marquis is responsible for liaison between the planetary government or governments and the Imperium, and for command of the naval and ground forces, seconded to the subsector navy and Unified Army.
Recently, with support from Ling-Standard Products, Shirani Kay, the charismatic Maia (dictator) of the Temeraire nation of Detrans, proceeded to unify the states of Temeraire under the banner of her Spiral Path party, and was appointed Marquis of Treydotha.
One group of note in the Protectorate is the vigilante group Io-Seth, "Scales of Justce". Io-Seth normally confines itself to operations in the Protectorate, but individual cells sometimes take their crusade into the Imperium at large, occasionally in association with non-Vanthian groups. The Imperial government views Io-Seth as a potentially dangerous terrorist group, and reacts accordingly when confronting it. There is some pressure from the Imperium to rein in the organization, but the Maia has chosen to tread carefully. Io-Seth has a “Robin Hood” reputation among many Evantha.
Military Forces[edit]
The elite military force of the Protectorate is the Shadow Wing, zealously devoted to the Maia. Numbering over a million soldiers, the Shadow Wing has the latest in military technology, including ground, air, and space vehicles, mostly TL-11, and primarily from Ling-Standard Products.
