Duchy of Sabine

An administrative subdivision of the Third Imperium, one of the duchies of politically volatile Deneb Sector.

Description (Specifications)

The duchy's two major worlds, Magash (Deneb 0316) and Thengin (Deneb 0518), act together only out of political necessity. Magash is a major world on the X-boat route and the duchy seat, while Thengin has a strong power base; Magash wins the arguments, but Thengin wields the duchy's military power.

The Denebian Duchies

There is no Sector Duke in Deneb. Differences of opinion or agenda between the 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.

Sabine Politics (specifics)

Sabine usually cooperates with Pretoria, and is on friendly terms with Rhylanor Subsector in the Spinward Marches.

Sabine typically struggles with the duchies of Inar and Vincennes. The Duke has no counts to serve as advisors, so is forced to rely on Marquis Dhapura.
