The Great Dominate of The Gods of Thunder is a interstellar empire in Charted Space controlling over 1000 worlds. The capital is Kirur/ Thirty (Ruupiin 1315). The total extent of territory is not known. It is known that it dominates Gateway Sector, most of Ley and Star's End sectors, and portions of Glimmerdrift Reaches and Crucis sectors. In addition it is known to hold dominion over the pre-Collapse empire of the Two Thousand Worlds. Simply the known sectors make it the largest empire in Charted Space. The inhabitants are composed primarily of K'kree and Viral entities in an alliance with each other. Many of the worlds are merely subject planets with little production or industry.

Government and Goals

Until 1247 The Dominate was led by meta identity Anv!ull’lxux, who ruled in much the same way as traditional K'Kree in alliance with Virus. Since its death at the Second Battle of Gateway, the government is in a state of disorder as various factions, Viral and organic, are scrambling to become the successor. A civil war may be forming.

The Dominate is considered the greatest threat to all other empires in Charted Space as it stated goal is the extermination of all G’naak (which includes all humans, Aslan, and Vargr). Hivers are also slated for extermination due to their interference in past K'Kree affairs.

Current Affairs

To Rimward, the Dominate continues to make intermittent but vigorous war on the re-emerging Hive Federation while in what used to be Gateway Domain several successor groups are drawing in their forces around important worlds. Large segments of the Dominate’s forces are uncommitted and either continue their crusade against meat-eaters as best they can or else await the next great leader to arise. The future of the Dominate is at present not clear. It does remain a significant threat, but one that can be held at bay for now without extreme measures of recent years. If a new overall leader arises, all of Charted Space will once again be under threat of extermination.
