History & Background / Dossier[edit]
Zedesu is close to the border between the Imperium and the Julian Protectorate, part of a small cluster accessible by jump-2 ships and important to the Imperium as a market rather than a producer, although it does have a modest TL-10 industrial base.
Its massive population is ruled by a dictatorship, which for many years had been stable and largely untroubled. Dissent always existed but was kept at acceptable levels by a combination of security measures and the cultivation of a high standard of living. Unfortunately, this resulted in high spending levels, which proved unsustainable in the long term. By 1105 the emphasis was on arrests and removal of ‘privileges’ for suspect areas. This created increasing anger among a population wearied of collective punishments, and in time the emergence of an armed insurgent movement.
Imperial High / Landed Nobility[edit]
Zedesu, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the fiefdom of a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversees affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.
