Gushemege is an Imperial stronghold, but it still has considerable internal dissent and a very complex and turbulent political interplay of its many, quarreling factions. The region contains several [[Imperial Cultural Region]]s with several other aspiring sophont species also aspiring for greater recognition. The local [[Imperial Nobility]] are far less humanocentric than many other sectors due to the considerable demographics of nonhumans. Graytch, S'mrii, and Droyne tend to dominate sector politics although humans from the Lancian faction as well as mainstream Imperials still hold considerable sway.

Politics & Diplomacy (Interstellar Relations)[edit]

Gushemege is an Imperial stronghold, but it still has considerable internal dissent and a very complex and turbulent political interplay of its many quarreling factions. The region contains several Imperial Cultural Regions with several sophont species also aspiring for greater recognition. The local Imperial Nobility are far less humanocentric than in many other sectors due to the considerable demographics of nonhumans. Graytch, S'mrii, and Droyne tend to dominate sector politics although humans from the Lancian faction as well as mainstream Imperials still hold considerable sway. In addition, the Aslan Hierate maintains a number of embassies and trade missions within the sector. The Imperial Aslan clans, well-established societies dating back to the Long Night, remain of considerable interest to greater Aslan society.
