Subsector M of Amdukan Sector.

Description[edit]

This subsector is notable for a natural jump-3 border between two of the most powerful Julian Protectorate member states -- the Asimikigir Confederation and the Rukadukaz Republic.

Subsector Summary: 1116[edit]

Vector, subsector M of Amdukan, contains 30 worlds with an estimated combined population of 82 billion, a per capita income of Cr3,181, and a total economy of BCr261,982. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr82 through 26 starports (2 Class A, 4 Class B, 19 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 13,680 people. Driving this interstellar trade are nine Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, two Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Vector maintain eight Military bases and two Naval bases. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 5 and 9). The highest technology level is 12 at Caduceus (Amdukan 0134).

Vector, subsector M of Amdukan, contains 41 stars and 323 identified planets; 19 monostellar systems, 11 binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 27 of the 30 systems (90%) have native gas giants. There are one Asteroid (As) belt, two Desert (De) worlds, three Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, three Poor (Po) worlds, three Vacuum (Va) worlds, and three Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Vector has an estimated population of 82 billion distributed across one High population (Hi) world, three Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 17 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, seven Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Kadrius (Amdukan 0538). The population consists primarily of 3 sophont groups. One native sophont is extinct.

Julian Protectorate[edit]

The Julian Protectorate has jurisdiction over all of the worlds, with an estimated combined population of 82 billion, a per capita income of Cr3,181, and a total economy of BCr261,982. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr82 through 26 starports (2 Class A, 4 Class B, 19 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 13,680 people. Driving this interstellar trade are nine Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, two Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in the Julian Protectorate maintain eight Military bases and two Naval bases in the subsector. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 5 and 9). The highest technology level is 12 at Caduceus (Amdukan 0134).

The Julian Protectorate, including major member states the Rukadukaz Republic and the Asimikigir Confederation, has an estimated population of 82 billion within this subsector, distributed across one High population (Hi) world, three Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 17 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, seven Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Kadrius (Amdukan 0538). The population consists primarily of 3 sophont groups.

Linguistic Topography: 1116[edit]

The following languages are among the most commonly encountered in this astrographic region:

  • Anglic: Common to many Human worlds.
    • Julian Anglic: The most common variant in the sector, and an official language of the Julian Protectorate.
  • Hhraki: Also known as Hhkarn; the primary language of the Hhkar. Hhkar travel frequently and may be found wandering much of Julian and adjacent space.
  • Irilitok: The language family of the most populous Vargr phenotype and ethnic culture within the Julian Protectorate.
  • Ovaghoun: The language family of a populous Vargr phenotype and ethnic culture.
  • Vilani: Common to many Human worlds. Many human dialects in the region have Vilani roots.
  • Wawa-pakekeke-wawa: The common, precise and bureaucratic language of the Bwaps. Spoken on Bwap-dominated planets and by government functionaries on any world lucky enough to retain a dedicated Bwap workforce.

Major Historical Events Timeline: 1116[edit]

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this subsector:

  • -2235 to -2219: A family of Solomani traders, the Menderes, establish lucrative trade routes along the Mendan Main.
  • -321: Karik Menderes of Menderes Corporation raises all Menderes Vargr to the status of employees.
    • This starts a movement that makes slavery illegal on Asimikigir by -302.
  • -275: Tran Menderes breaks precedent by accepting a Vargr offer to carry Menderes goods off planet. Until now, Kudukara Lines, the principle transport line of the Second Empire of Gashikan, has carried all goods for the region.
  • (175 to 191): Julian War; the region unites to fight off the Third Imperium as it attempts to incorporate Amdukan, Mendan and Meshan sectors by force.
  • Early 600s: After centuries of increasingly common peaceful (if wary) interaction, the Hhkar Sphere joins the Julian Protectorate.
  • 864: The Hegemony of Lorean is founded, starting out as a 'trade and aid' group of interstellar traders centred on a cluster of high-population systems dominating Mycocona Subsector, in Arzul Sector to trailing.
    • The great success of this trade coalition leads to a sharp rise of economic and then military power.
  • 933-936: The defection of the Damlaer Union from the Julian Protectorate to the Hegemony leads to the Lorean Strikes. Failed military action leads to a major political crisis within the Protectorate.
  • 940: As part of this political upheaval, the government of the Ikonaz Sphere collapses, replaced by the Rukadukaz Republic.
  • 942: The Protectorate and the Hegemony formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Julian Protectorate.
