World Demographics

90% of the population are Luriani.

A significant minority of the cultural Luriani population are biological Solomani or Vilani. The Solomani, known as Veresti Dtareen (Terran Defenders) descend from Terran soldiers and administrators of the Rule of Man stranded during the Long Night, while the Vilani are known as Mmarislusant (Victims of History), and descend from stranded Vilani colonists. Both groups have absorbed much of Luriani culture and are seen both by themselves and the natives as being genuine Luriani.

World Languages

• Aaca
• Anglic
• Vilani: Mmarislusant dialect of Old High Vilani.

Aaca is short-form for Aaeebuany't' limmisdasca.

Verasti Dtareen speak a variant of Anglic known as Luriani Anglic or "Lurglic", while the Mmarislusant retain their language of Old High Vilani. The Luriani Cultural Association expends considerable effort to ensure that all three languages remain in use.

World Government

The justifications for the original change in government remain as well as the assertion of rights to rule.

World Military

World Law

• Luriani like their police close to the communities they serve, and there is normally at least one community verasrasti (constable) per 800 individuals. They are expected to be familiar with the people they police.
• In addition to the normal law enforcement services, the Iadtlu militia is available to deal with emergencies in the case of either serious unrest or disaster.
• Justice and punishment are handled by trained arbiters, using an inquisitorial legal system. Both prosecution and defence are normally handled by state-employed advocates.
• The Luriani do not use capital punishment, nor can the Imperium apply the death penalty on a Luriani world for crimes against Imperial justice.

World Culture

The complex and seemingly all-pervasive nature of Luriani etiquette is one of the mechanisms they employ to moderate their emotionally volatile natures. The Solomani and Vilani minority populations -- the Verasti Dtareen and Mmarislusant -- adopted the same code of conduct.
