Dominion of Alntzar
Zhodani client state in the Jungleblut subsector of the Far Frontiers sector. Once the dominant force in the region, it was split by internal warfare about 300 years ago. It is strongly suspected that Imperial interests were behind this upheaval, as the Imperium benefited greatly from the removal of the strong pro-Zhodani government and the consequent weakness of this flank of the Consulate during the Third Frontier War.
Regardless of the cause of the Dominion's disintegration, the result of the crisis was a considerable diminuation of the size and power of Altnzar. A number of star systems which rebelled at this time later emerged as the nucleus of the League of Suns. With the League, and the Trelyn Domain nearby, the pro-Imperial strength in Jungleblut subsector far outweighs the Dominion's power. The Consulate still provides their allies with token support, but has done little to assist in the re-establishment of the state's old prestige.
A weakened and rather decadent state, the Dominion was superceded as the League's most important competitor by the emergence of the Descarothe Hegemony at the turn of the last century. Since that time, League military attention along its Dominion border has been considerably reduced and transferred to the Hegemony border.
The present state is also known as the Domain of Alntzar, especially in contrast to the old Dominion.
