Description (Specifications)

Hierate is an Galanglic word derived from a Terran word for sacred, the early contactees mistaking the Aslan "Code of Honor" for a religion.

  • The Aslan term for their empire is Htoifteirlakht, translated as the bountful lands ruled by the lords of honor.

A. Goals: 1116

The Aslan are motivated by land ownership and prestige within Aslan society. Due to these strong motivations, the Aslan Hierate's primary goal is expansionism.

  • Please see Ihatei for more information.

Expansionism (Motivation)

The Hierate is constantly expanding in any astrographical direction it can. Population pressure and the constant desire for more space pushes each clan to build colonization starships and escorting miltary forces to accompany them.

Territoriality (Motivation)

A deep-seated territorial instinct causes the Aslan to have an inordinate (from a human standpoint) concern with land. For male Aslan, owning land is a major goal in life. An Aslan's stature is determined by the amount of land he (or her husband) controls, or by the amount of land owned by any higher lord the Aslan may be vassal to. The lowest classes of Aslan are landless, and provide the farmers, laborers, craftsmen, and factory workers. A holder of a large territory will often grant authority over it to vassals (usually sons, brothers, or male relatives by marriage) who administer the land in his name.

Honor (Motivation)

The Aslan have highly-developed codes of conduct that govern Aslan behavior. These customs are widespread with little dissent or challenges to the established culture. One Imperial scientist and observer of Aslan society, Professor Iacomus Konradsky of the Imperial University of Regina, once characterized Aslan customs and mores as "violently monocultural" with an explanation that while the Aslan frequently feud among themselves, they will quickly align forces to crush threats to their way of life.

B. Symbols: 1116

The Capital of the Aslan Hierate is at Kuzu/Yataw (Dark Nebula 1226) and is the location of all of many of the most important symbols of the Aslan Hierate:

History & Background (Dossier)

A vast Aslan-dominated empire (the Aslan Hierate) lies to spinward and rimward of the Reavers' Deep, but Aslan themselves have ranged well beyond its borders, with many Ihatei settling on the independent worlds of the Deep and the Imperium. Aslan have fought with the Imperium in the Aslan Border Wars.

Major Historical Events Timeline: 1116

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this polity:

Government & Politics (Leadership)

The Aslan government is known as the Aslan Hierate.

Overview: 1116

The Aslan government is characterized as having a high degree of centralization, which sets uniform policies that direct the entire multi-sector state and disregards local/planetary differences unless they are significant at the clan level. The Aslan government is usually classified as a Commonwealth, a form of a Unitary State.

Internal Politics: 1116

Political Factions: 1116

No information yet available.

Interstellar Relations: 1116

The nature of decentralized governance within the Hierate make interstellar elations as a polity difficult. While unified decisions by the Tlaukhu representing the Hierate do occur, it is far more common for other polities to negotiate with Aslan Clans or Tlaukhu power blocs.

This polity conducts diplomacy and maintains active relations with the following other polities:

Member States: 1116

The following states have acquiesced part of their sovereignty, thus forming sub-polities, to this supra-polity:

  • No information yet available.

Government Structure: 1116

No information yet available.

A. Executive Branch: 1116

  • Tlaukhu
  • Aslan society centers on the clan. Within the Hierate, the family structure of the Aslan and the governmental structure are the same. A council of twenty-nine clan leaders chosen from amongst the most powerful clans performs the highest governmental functions. The Trokh name for this council is Tlaukhu, which has a literal translation of thirty-five (Aslan numbering is in base-8, this is 29 in base-10).

B. Legislative Branch: 1116

  • Tlaukhu Members "29"
  • "The 29" (as they are called) have quasi-religious status and represent the essential unity of the Aslan race. To be chosen one of the 29 is the highest honor to which any Aslan can aspire. The 29 meet continuously on the Aslan homeworld, Kusyu (Dark Nebula 1226) to adjudicate inter-clan disputes and decide matters of group policy. No member of the 29 speaks for the Hierate as a whole, nor does the whole 29.

C. Judicial Branch: 1116

D. Bureaucracy: 1116

Major Clan.

E. Military: 1116

The military of this polity is decentralized and subordinate to individual clan control.

  • There are no Hierate military forces; each clan has its own, and they rarely act in concert with those of other clans. The Hierate itself can call upon military forces only insofar as the clans themselves agree to provide such forces. Even the minor forces conveying the 29's decisions are actually under the control of individual clan leaders.

Military & Intelligence (Force Projection)

There are no Hierate military forces; each clan has its own, and they rarely act in concert with those of other clans. The Hierate itself can call upon military forces only insofar as the clans themselves agree to provide such forces. Even the minor forces conveying the Tlaukhu 29's decisions are actually under the control of individual clan leaders.

  • The extremely deadly nature of any combat between Aslan has led to a rigid, ritualized pattern of behavior designed to reduce conflict. Aslan are very polite, and while most have learned to be patient with non-Aslan, accidental fights still occur. Disputes between individuals are handled by the patriarchs; disputes between families are handled by the pride leader; disputes between prides are handled by the clan leader.
  • Aslan civil wars and conflict amongst the clans is far more common than many Aslan would like to admit.

A. Ground Forces: 1116

B. Naval Forces: 1116

Aslan clans build great space battlefleets and build surface armies to support these space navies. The tendency of Aslan society to cleave along clan, territorial, and expansionistic lines makes clan cooperation vital when facing larger space fleets from other sophonts and political groupings.

C. Special Forces: 1116

D. Paramilitary Forces: 1116

E. Intelligence Agencies: 1116

No information yet available.

Technology & Trade (Economy)

The Aslan are persistent inventors and avid traders. Aslan technology can be very variable since clans often withhold newly-discovered technologies from their rivals, but eventually Aslan technologies become distributed throughout Aslan society through processes of trade, diplomacy, and espionage.

  • Aslan trade is major motivator for the average clan and trade with foreign entities is a widespread and accepted custom.
