Syzlin Republic
A polity of the Crucis Margin Sector. It is the successor to the defunct Syzlin Empire, itself established from the Kaiter Hegemony.
Description[edit]
The Syzlin Republic consists of 17 worlds located in the rimward Crucis Margin Sector. It is a centralized government with representatives sent from each of the member worlds, though some of these worlds were brought into the republic by force, and are represented by colonial governors.
Goals[edit]
Economic development and mutual protection are the primary goals of this government. Note that the former sometimes involves expansionist aims.
History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Several planets were added to the republic through military conquest. Troop garrisons ensure continued loyalty along with naval patrols.
Government & Politics (Leadership)[edit]
Each planet sends representatives to the central government at Syzlin.
The Syzlin Republic is noted for its arrogance. Its vessels tend to claim the right to free navigation and will back these claims with force, but economic blockades are imposed on other worlds if the Syzlin leadership feels it can get away with it.
Technology & Trade (Economy)[edit]
Republic worlds range from TL–4 to TL–12.
Military & Intelligence (Force Projection)[edit]
The Syzlin Republic Fleet has a single Naval Base located at the capital. There is no separate scout service in use. The Syzlin Republican Guard provides troops to protect member worlds.
There are three fleets, each centered on a command cruiser.
- Home Fleet: Defends the home cluster and acts as a strategic reserve. It is based at the Syzlin Naval Base.
- Rim Fleet: Operates out of Stefen and defends the four worlds of that cluster.
- Ranger Fleet: Operates from Ise, and along the scattered coreward-trailing worlds of the Republic.
A fourth command cruiser serves as a presidential yacht and centerpiece of the Bodyguard Squadron.
Ise (Crucis Margin 0729 (B641538-9)), Embu (Crucis Margin 1130 (B844776-A)), and Zankai (Crucis Margin 0833 (B200644-B)) have their own small system defense boat squadrons for local security.
Worlds & Sectors (Astrography)[edit]
The capital is Syzlin (Crucis Margin 0831 (A6457A8-C)).
There are seventeen worlds under republican control. Stefen (Crucis Margin 1135 (A5478A9-B)) is an important ship building center. Like the capital, this world is under heavy military security and is listed as an Amber Zone as a result.
Garissa (Crucis Margin 0829 (A6A9844-B)) is used to produce 51,000 tons of civilian ships and as a result is a green zone for travel.
The Syzlin Republic controls 10% of the Bright Heavens Subsector and 33% of the Taitin Subsector. This is 4% of the Crucis Margin Sector.
