Suerrat Cultural Region

The Suerrat Cultural Region is an Imperial Cultural Region centered around the Suerrat culture.

The Suerrat themselves call the region the Suerrat Republic, though the Imperium does not recognise that name and carefully limits Suerrat autonomy. Several petitions have been made to the Imperial Moot to allow the Suerrat Cultural Region to form a navy and army, citing the Geonee Cultural Region and the Geonee Self Defense Forces as precedent. However, the Ilelish Revolt has not been forgotten, and the Imperium is wary about giving true firepower to the Suerrat. Instead they are permitted an internal peacekeeping force.

The cultural centre of the Suerrat Cultural Region is Dilipuu, though Ilelish, as the Suerrat homeworld, has considerable influence too.

For peacekeeping purposes, the Suerrat United Worlds Council can request troops and vessels volunteered from member worlds to be deployed under its purview, but only within the boundaries of the cultural zone. The SUWC is funded through payments of all member worlds, calculated based on each world's population and economic wealth; it also receives voluntary donations from large organisations and businesses, both within and without the cultural zone.
