Major Historical Events Timeline
The Duchy of Zeng plays only a minor role in sector politics. The Duchy has a respectable economy but its strength is concentrated away from its competitors, with its most powerful worlds, Lilad, Agdarmi (Deneb 1340), and Pikha (Deneb 1633) all on the Rimward border. The Duchy's distance from strong competing worlds gives it a buffer zone and allows it to project power into the rimward edge of Gulf and completely dominate the affairs of the tiny slice of worlds that is Macon Subsector in Reft.
The Duke is mainly concerned with harassing the Duchy of Vincennes, a powerful neighbor whose vassal world Dekha (Deneb 1128) projects power into Zeng Subsector. The Duke of Zeng belongs to the Garhik family.
Zeng is defended by the 260th Fleet, headquartered at Zeng.

These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr1,018 through 34 starports (6 Class A, 9 Class B, 14 Class C, 5 Class D) employing 213,235 people. Driving this interstellar trade are three Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, no Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, one Pre-Industrial (Pi) world, five Rich (Ri) worlds, and two Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Zeng maintain 11 Scout bases and seven Naval bases. The average technology level is 9 (with most between 7 and 12). The highest technology level is 16 at Pashus (Deneb 1432).
Zeng, subsector N of Deneb, contains 48 stars and 387 identified planets; 23 monostellar systems, 11 binary systems, one trinary system, and no systems with four or more stars. 33 of the 35 systems (94%) have native gas giants. There are no Asteroid (As) belts, two Desert (De) worlds, no Garden (Ga) worlds, no Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, eight Poor (Po) worlds, no Vacuum (Va) worlds, and four Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.
