A historical pocket empire, and unofficial extant cultural region, in Glimmerdrift Reaches Sector.
History & Background[edit]
The Krax Confederation was of respectable age, having been formed as a self protection measure during the Civil War in 612-614. This area was originally colonized during the First Imperium, the Imperial policy being to send political dissidents to those areas where their energy would be constructively diverted to survival. During 700 to 800 the Krax Confederation was a factor in limiting technological degenerence to a minimum level 5 on marginally habitable worlds. Political cohesion lessened as exterior threats slackened.
During an expansion into this region by the Imperium after 900, a greater degree of internal solidarity manifested. Several minor attempts at armed expansion by Imperial independent adventurers were beaten off and political borders stabilized. A strong central armed service was organized to better coordinate the military actions of Confederation members. Imperial policy, no longer encouraging expansion in this area, then began emphasizing the establishment of friendly buffer states on the borders. Over two decades the Imperium encouraged private concerns to establish commercial relationships. While still somewhat suspicious of the overall intentions of the Imperium's rulers, the Confederation worlds were willing to make use of whatever technical and military advancements they could.
By 1000, the centralised polical system was no longer in evidence. The Confederation had quietly disappeared.
Technology and Trade[edit]
The Confederation's passenger transfer system, based upon Brilliant Gem Class Coreships and Sapphire Moon Class Moduleships, was one of more notable success stories in the annals of Imperial/local cooperation in the Glimmerdrift Reaches Sector.
