Local Rivalries[edit]
Fierce rivalry exists with the nearby Boa Trace. Centuries ago, during the Imperial Civil Wars, local nobles from both Traces found themselves on opposite sides. The situation went from heated arguments in the Ducal Court on Libuka to open conflict between member worlds of the two regions. Although the situation ended in a stalemate, atrocities were committed on both sides and it has left lasting enmity. In more modern times this feuding exhibits itself as an intense sporting rivalry, especially within the local Null-G Kabbadi leagues.
