Union of Sufren
The Union of Sufren dates back to the Long Night, and the ties between its worlds have remained strong through the years, to reappear again during the Hard Times. One of the sector's strongest polities, the Union is clearly pro-Margaret, relying on trade with her high technology worlds. The Union has a policy of supporting the Khavle Accordment, knowing that if it falls, the Union will be cut off from its trading partners in Margaret's Frontier. So far such help has not used Union troops or ships, but starmercs on retainer to the Union.
The Union maintains a fleet of TL 14-15 starships, and TL 14 ground troops. These are sent abroad only to meet deployments of Vassalry Judiciate troops. For other purposes, the Union retains starmerc groups, chief among which is Skerrit Adan's highly regarded unit, which recently assisted the Khavle Accordment.
