Description (Specifications)
The Dominion of Alntzar was a polity that existed within Jungleblut Subsector of Far Frontier Sector. It was a Zhodani client state.
- The present Alntzar state still officially uses the title Dominion.
The exact date of the Dominion's formation is uncertain but it appears to have been extant by the late 300s. It gradually expanded, absorbing surrounding systems and reaching its greatest size during the 7th and 8th centuries. It was split by internal warfare about 300 years ago, with the majority of its systems becoming independent. A rump state, the Domain of Alntzar, is its last remnant.

History & Background (Dossier)
During the 7th and 8th centuries the Dominion was the dominant force in the region, controlling 28 systems at its height, but it was split by dissent and internal warfare in the early 800s. It is suspected that Imperial interests were behind this upheaval, as the Imperium and its regional allies benefited greatly from the diminishment of the Dominion’s strongly pro-Zhodani government. The collapse of the Dominion and the subsequent weakness of this flank of the Zhodani Consulate was a significant factor during both the Third and Fourth Frontier Wars.
Regardless of the cause of the Dominion's disintegration, more than half of its member worlds either rebelled or formally seceded - many eventually unifying into the League Of Suns and the Descarothe Hegemony. Former member worlds including Lelaek, Thenstor, Mirayn, Affleck and Nirvana remain independent to the present day.
After unsuccessfully attempting to regain lost territories by force or diplomacy, the remnants of the Dominion have spent the last century or so declining into an isolationist and comparatively decadent state. It had stopped being referred to as the Dominion by the 11th century, instead being given the somewhat less threatening title Domain.
The Domain remains as the rump state of the Dominion, occupying the rimward part of Jungleblut Subsector.
