History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Tsu was part of the Syzlin Empire, but following the revolt of Osaka in 778 the collapsing Empire subsequently withdrew, and Osakan forces moved in. Tsu welcomed the arrival of Osaka, and signed a mutual protection treaty. Between Tsu and the outpost at Bura, Osaka liked to consider itself a multistellar state, and spoke of "Greater Osaka" as a pocket empire. That supposed status, and the possession of a high technology base, gave Osaka a certain prestige in dealing with local non-aligned worlds in the 990s, but nothing ever came of the "empire".
