The [[Spinward Marches Sector]] is the {{Imperium}}’s farthest frontier sector, containing 439 star systems divided along a [[coreward]]/[[rimward]] line by the Imperial border.
  
 +
The Spinward Marches has been settled since the [[400s]] and is still a frontier sector. High-tech worlds are scattered among empty, fallow worlds; there is potential for exploration, exploitation, and development for centuries to come.

== Description ([[Specifications]]) ==
+
The Spinward Marches sector is not only a frontier, it is a war torn frontier. The {{Imperium}} expanded unclaimed territory until it reached the Marches, but there it found other races already in place. Most of the races were inconsequential, but the [[Zhodani]] had an empire nearly as large and as powerful as the Imperium. They were a force to be reckoned with; they resisted the Imperial advance and created the atmosphere of contention and conflict.

The Spinward edge of the Imperium is 130 parsecs from the Emperor's throne on {{WorldS|Capital|Core|2118}}. Beyond that border lie many worlds; some are client-states of the Imperium, while others are independent non-aligned governments.

=== Major Historical Events Timeline: 1116 ===
+
The relationship between the Zhodani Consulate and the Imperium has never been an easy one. The continuing history of frontier wars between two empires makes another war both possible and probable. The Zhodani supported guerrilla insurgency on Efate, Zhodani military preparations which have resulted in Imperial registered ships being fired on, boarded or destroyed, both sides have established trade restrictions on the other side's commodities.
−
These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this sector:
 
−
* ([[-1137]] to [[-927]]): [[Darrian Confederation]] founded.
 
−
* ([[-924]]): [[Maghiz]] destroys the Darrian civilization
 
−
* ([[-186]]): [[Sacnoth Dominate]], the first [[Sword Worlds]]' government forms.
 
−
* ([[300]]): {{World|Pretoria|Deneb|Pretoria|0406}} was settled by the Third Imperium and eventually becomes the administrative center for the [[Aramis Trace]] in the [[Spinward Marches]].
 
−
* ([[589]] to [[604]]): First Frontier War
 
−
* ([[615]] to [[620]]): [[Second Frontier War]]
 
−
* ([[979]] to [[986]]): [[Third Frontier War]]

[[Astrography]] and travel in the Marches are dominated by the [[Spinward Main]], a chain of 223 systems meandering through fifteen of the Marches' sixteen subsectors.  
  
 
Each system on the [[Spinward Main]] is only jump-1 from its nearest neighbors, making interstellar travel along the Main accessible even to [[starship]]s with the least expensive jump drives.

True development of the Spinward Marches began with the arrival of the Imperials in [[60]] when {{WorldS|Mora|Spinward Marches|3124}} was settled; {{WorldS|Regina|Spinward Marches|1910}} was settled in [[75]]. Between 200 and 400, the major Imperial exploration and settlement of the Marches took place. By 500, there were Imperial explorations beyond the Marches and into Zhodani territory in the adjacent [[Foreven Sector|Foreven]] (Iakr) sector.

Spinward Marches style="width: 250px; height: 350px; border: solid 1px black; float: right; clear: left"

The Spinward Marches Sector is the Imperium’s farthest frontier sector, containing 439 star systems divided along a coreward/rimward line by the Imperial border.

The Spinward Marches has been settled since the 400s and is still a frontier sector. High-tech worlds are scattered among empty, fallow worlds; there is potential for exploration, exploitation, and development for centuries to come.

The Spinward Marches sector is not only a frontier, it is a war torn frontier. The Imperium expanded unclaimed territory until it reached the Marches, but there it found other races already in place. Most of the races were inconsequential, but the Zhodani had an empire nearly as large and as powerful as the Imperium. They were a force to be reckoned with; they resisted the Imperial advance and created the atmosphere of contention and conflict.

The Spinward edge of the Imperium is 130 parsecs from the Emperor's throne on Capital (Core 2118). Beyond that border lie many worlds; some are client-states of the Imperium, while others are independent non-aligned governments.

The relationship between the Zhodani Consulate and the Imperium has never been an easy one. The continuing history of frontier wars between two empires makes another war both possible and probable. The Zhodani supported guerrilla insurgency on Efate, Zhodani military preparations which have resulted in Imperial registered ships being fired on, boarded or destroyed, both sides have established trade restrictions on the other side's commodities.

Physical Astrography[edit]

Astrography and travel in the Marches are dominated by the Spinward Main, a chain of 223 systems meandering through fifteen of the Marches' sixteen subsectors.

Each system on the Spinward Main is only jump-1 from its nearest neighbors, making interstellar travel along the Main accessible even to starships with the least expensive jump drives.

Politics and Diplomacy : Historical[edit]

True development of the Spinward Marches began with the arrival of the Imperials in 60 when Mora (Spinward Marches 3124) was settled; Regina (Spinward Marches 1910) was settled in 75. Between 200 and 400, the major Imperial exploration and settlement of the Marches took place. By 500, there were Imperial explorations beyond the Marches and into Zhodani territory in the adjacent Foreven (Iakr) sector.
