History & Background (Dossier)
In 626 the Colonnade Province, or Driantia Steblenzhtia, was created after the First Frontier War to provide information and a buffer state to rimward of the Zhodani Consulate, and was further centralized and reinforced after the Third Frontier War in 996. It is patterned quite closely after the workings of the home government. The Zhodani word "steblenzh" is loosely translated as "vanguard," and the name "vanguard reaches" was later adopted by most races as the name for the sector. The Zhodani use of the word "vanguard" clearly is from a reference to rimward, although from an Imperial point of view "vanguard" would refer to the spinward frontier.
The capital world Chyia Nedlkel (Vanguard Reaches 0406, A-301AB9-D) was renamed after the political radical and exploratory pioneer who advocated abolishment of the nobility in favor of widespread psionic testing of all citizens. The reforms of High Councillor Nedlkel were installed in the Imperial year 666.
This Zhodani client maintains good diplomatic relations with the Altarean Confederation and the Eslyat. Negotiations with the Duchy of Trelyn and the Aslan colonies have been, at best, neutral. No significant wars have been fought by Driantia Steblenzhtia, although a sizable military force has always been maintained.
As of Imperial date 1120, the Driantia Steblenzhtia governed worlds in 80 systems with a total population of over 36 billion sophonts.
