Vincennes, originally designated District 192, was surveyed in 120 and saw most of its settlements between 140 and 280. The world of Vincennes developed rapidly and was made the subsector capital when the subsector was admitted into the Imperium in 243. At this time the provisional government was replaced by the Humbolts, an Imperial family of Solomani descent. The assignment of the Humbolt clan to the Marquisate of Vincennes was less of a reward and more of an exile, with a charge to keep Starlane open and crush the nearby Vargr states.
Description
The Vincennes Subsector is defended by 258th Fleet.
History & Background (Dossier)
- In 628, the Humbolts were charged with violation of Imperial law and exiled beyond the Imperium. A new family took over running the duchy.
Non-canon: Two Vincenzian dukes in a row resorted to unacceptable measures in their attempts to regain the status as sector duke. Following the second incident, the new Duke of Vincennes was 'invited' to move to Capital and settle there. The duchy was turned over to the Marquis of Vincennes, who was given a newly created title "Count of Perez and Erisis" to give him a high enough status to deputize for a duke. As a count who spoke for a duke, he could deal adequately with neighboring subsector dukes but had no hope of ever becoming sector duke himself.
- In 1107, the old count died without an heir and in 1108 Audine Aledon Garhik, the nephew of the Duke of Zeng, was selected to be the new Marquis of Vincennes and Count of Perez and Erisis.
