Vanguard Reaches:
The sector called The Vanguard Reaches is located 138 parsecs directly spinward of the sector containing Capital/Core, and 80 parsecs directly rimward of the sector containing Zhodane/Gaval. The Vanguard Reaches contains 16 subsectors, 562 planetary systems, and a population of 1.128 trillion sentients. This population includes 122 billion Zhodani, 117 billion Vilani, 56 billion Vargr, 50 billion Aslan, and also Murian, Eslyat, Solomani and Droyne.

The major organization of this region on the interstellar empire level occurred shortly after the Third Frontier War ( 979 to 986 ) with the establishment of the Zhodani and Imperium Client States within the sector. Alltough the Reaches are 38 parsecs from the Imperium and 16 parsecs from Zhodani Consulate, these two empires have played a large role in the development of the coreward half of the sector.

Diplomatisches:

Altarean Confederation:
An interstellar organization spanning two subsectors in the Vanguard Reaches and populated by the Murians, a humanoid but stocky and hirsute race. The Altarean Confederation dates from 859, and has always been ruled by a council of representatives from the member worlds.
There presently exists a joint non-aggression pact between the Altarean Condederation, the Colonnade Administrative District and the Trelyn Domain which includes a non-interference clause in regard to non-aligned planets in the Andwella and Coos subsectors. The Altarean Confederation has often figured as a stabilizing force between the Zhodani and Imperium Client States adjacent to it. As a strong, interstellar neutral, the Confederation has been credited with calming or preventing many disputes in the Coreward subsectors of the Vanguard Reaches.

Colonnade Administrative District:
Formally established as a Zhodani Client State by the Consulate in 996 after the Third Frontier War, this District was originally ruled by the First Earl of Colonnade, Sen Luasin, until his death in 1026. His illegitimate son and only heir, Sen Trasinkla, succeeded Luasin in the same year. Although not officially proven, it is widely believed that one of the Second Earl’s finest achievements was the ambush of the Imperial Interstellar Scout Cruiser Vermillion at Garonne/Haldensleben in 1042. In the Vanguard Reaches, the population of the CAD is 121,6 billion sentients, virtually all being members of the Zhodani race.

Comsentient Alliancae:
From “com”, in equal combination, and “sentient”, a person or thing that feels. The Alliance was conceived in 705 as an answer to the rather arbitrary Major Race / Minor Race theory embraced by the Imperium. In both practice and principle, the Alliance recognizes equal rights and responsibilities of all thinking and feeling lifeforms regardless of technological levels or achievements. Each member world of the Alliance is represented in the Great Hall on Rabanitas/Zydar ( located in the Beyond sector, directly to trailing of the Vanguard Reaches) based upon one representative per population expressed in a power of 10. Thus, a world with an indigenous sentient population of 15,973 ( 1,5793 x10^4) would send four councilbeings to the Great Hall. In simplest terms, the UPP Population Index decides the number of councilbeings in representation.
At this date, 039-1106, there are some 800 plus worlds represented by over 6.400 councilbeings. This includes in the Vanguard Reaches all members of the Eslyat Magistracy, the Kanjanni Triumvirate, and several worlds in the Eslyar Subsector.


Corfelagaim:
Acronym for “Coreward Fellowship Against the Imperium”, this paramilitary organization was the first to challenge the Imperium Client State development in the Trelyn Subsector. Originally begun as a non-violent pressure group, it became an organizing force between several planetary navies and resulted in the Battle of Inchusela in 976 in which the Esylat claim to the three-world rosette at Inchusela CMS/Trelyn was successfully defended. All Eslyat worlds in the Trelyn Subsector are now Coregelagaim members.

Council of Worlds:
A conference held on 1089 with members of all worlds of the Telterian Cluster ( except Necto and Zelos). Altarean representatives, Colonnade delegates, and Trelyn Domain emissaries. The basic thrust of the council was a non-interference agreement with regard to inner struggles of the Tellerian Cluster. These Wars of Colonization are still continuing within the Cluster, although its neighbours have so far respected the Council decisions.

Eslyat Magistracy:
Ruled by the Selyin ( siehe Rassenbeschreibung Eslyat )nobility since formal establishment in 657, this interstellar government includes all known Eslyat, a total of 1.7 billion. The race is on good terms with the Comsentient Federation, and all members of the Magistracy are also members of the Federation. The Eslyat acquired interstellar travel from imperium exploration craft in approximately 600. Numerous clashes between the Trelyn Domain and the Magistracy have been fought over various territorial disputes in the Trelyn Subsector. The Tarf family rules the Magistracy, and the current magistrate is Princess Cherlla Tegraci Tarf Selyin IX.

Four Corners Sovereign Array:
Established by far-flung Solomani colonists, this region’s status as a Client State is certainly in question. Situated 150 parsecs from the Solomani Sphere, Four Corners is effectively isolated from contact with its ancestors. Racial stock here is definitely Solomani, however, and the origin of this phenomenon is not too clear. The Array is a loose confederation of trading partners established officially in 706, run by a representative council of eighteen members located at Hoganas/Four Corners, and governs a total of 4.1 billion.

Jarnac Pashalic:
Rueld by the Pasha An’Dulach, this Aslani Client State of 50.1 billion was originally established in 1006 after the Solomani Rim War. The last two rulers, An’Dulach XI and XII, have pursued an enthusiastic trade policy with all nearby systems. Whether this policy will result in expansion of this client state or unification of the subsystems is presently in doubt.

Kajaani Triumvirate:
A coalition formed by the triumvirate of Kajaani, Eufalag and Tizayuca, this organization is a tenuous group of worlds with similar trading interests. Eleven Vargr worlds are members in the Kajaani subsector, and their competence in cooperative efforts is quite limited. All Triumvirate members are also members of the Comsentient Alliance, which is credited as a solidifying influence. The Kajaani Triumvirate is ruled by a three member oligarchy presently composed of Count Hustak oj Kajaani, the Marquis Bogarth of Clonmel, and the Countess Lupa d’Gzhatsk. The Triumvirate presently governs a Vargr population of 55.6 billion.

Tellurian Cluster:
A group of 6 systems of roughly the same Technological Level ( Interstellar Community Level) who are on basically good terms with the Altarean Confederation. However, there continues in the cluster a lengthy series of wars and infighting concernin unoccupied worlds in several systems. Export or Import of weapons between other interstellar communities and the Tellurian Cluster is strictly illegal. Efforts are made to disinclude travellers from the constant warfare, but the area remains dangerous.

Trelyn Domain:
A group of Imperium industrialists formed the Allarton Corporation in 941 to exploit and develop the non-aligned areas of the Trelyn Subsectors. Resistance was met from the growing Eslyat Magistracy, but the coreward and spinward areas flourished. The Domain was officially included as an Imperium Client State in 980 during the Third Frontier War. By this time, the Domain had extended to include several plantes in the Coos Subsector also. Present population of the Domain is 116.8 billion. The crowing achievement of the Trelyn Domain is the sphereworld, Varens Planet/Trelyn. It has become vitally important industrial center, and focus of a major population relocation effort (the sphereworld contains over 85% of the Domain’s population), though only a small fraction of the surface has been colonized.

Die Sektoren des Four Corners Sivereign Array:

Four Corners Subsector:
Mostly unorganized, this subsector includes the capital of the Four Corners Sovereign Array and contains 38 world with its highest tech level of 10 at Haaparnako and Horganas. Total population ist 51,3 billion including 2,6 million Solomani. The Zhodani Consul route reaches its most rimward extent at Tsuroka in this subsector.

Hyperion Subsector:
Home of the famous Hyperion Lines, this subsector contains 37 world ( 1 unpopulated ) with the highest tech level of 10 at Foehn and total population of 112 billion. Six worlds are members of the Four Corners Sovereign Array with Solomani population of 4 billion. Active soliciting by Hyperion Lines keeps the jump routes in this region alive with trade. The provisional capital is at Hyperion itself, though no widespread interstellar governments prevail.

Old Colonies Subsector:
Containing 35 worlds with the highest tech level of 13 at Daquarm, this subsector is mostly unorganized with a total population of 11,1 billion. Three worlds at the spinward-coreward corner are members of the Four Corners Sovereign Array with a Solomani population of 1,6 million. Daquarm maintains trade contact with its colonies at Daquarm 2, 3 and 4. Augusteen, Cornett de Lara, and Alsuteo are on good terms with the Solomani.

Diadem Subsector:
Named for an extensive Jump-1 trade route colled the Diadem ( because of its circular design ), this subsector contains 46 world ( 3 unpopulated ) with its highest tech level of 10 at Nashua and Promenade. Total population is 75,8 billion including 5,6 million Solomani. Khami Jaladat has two colony worlds, and Whitestar and Shuford each have colonies. Whitestar is the provisional capital, although no subsectorwide government reigns. Members of the Diadem are part of an interstellar trade league, but have no other ties.

Wissenswertes:

Diadem:
This loosely knit trading conglomerate incorporates 21 worlds in the Diadem Subsector. Trade has flourished via Jump-1 route since its establishment in 984. An excellent money maker, the route features 4 industrial worlds, 4 agriculture worlds, and tech level as high as 10.

Eli:
The generic name for a large group of interstellar marauders found sporadically throughout the Tellerian Cluster. It is nit known where theses raiders make their base, but their Technological Level is quite high ( well above average Imeprium ) and they pray on many unsuspecting trading ships in the cluster. The Eli are fierce warriors and do not give quarter in combat. Non interference agreements with the Council of Worlds on Telleria prohibit police regarding theses legendary pirates.

Eslyat:
Intelligent minor race evolved from liquid-dwelling imnivore / hunters on the world Elliador / Trelyn in the Venguard Reaches. Eslyat are similar to humanity in ther needs and preferences, although they retain very efficient hearing ( to a range of up to 150.000 Hertz, some 8 to 10 times as high as humanity) and folds of skin between their fingers and toes enabling them to swim very well. There are three known species of Eslyat, with differently hued skin tones: the Selyin ( bluish-skinned nobility, 17% of known Eslyat ), Magsin ( greenish-skinned farmer / workers, 44% ) and Chutin ( red-skinned soldiers, 39% ). Internal social structure of the Eslyat is not known, but the family remains an important unit throughout the life span. Also observed have been large communal organizations of 50 to 60 Eslyat.

Helix Nebula:
A gas cloud thrown off approximately 99.500 Pi by the primary star in location 0407 in the Helix Subsector, this area has been posted a Red Zone due to the high amount of ionized hydrogen present in the nebula making the operation of fusion drives and navigational equipment extremely difficult. Several point of coalescence within the cloud are thought to have produced protostars, making the area of some astronomical interest to scientists studying the nature of the origin of stars and planetary systems.

Hyperion Lines:
Established in 1037 by the Lupeski family of Hyperion / Hyperion, this interstellar cartage firm now operates five major shipyards throughout the subsector. As the only major inter system communication present in the area, the company is responsible for the establishment of many important trade agreements.

Jarnac Carriers:
Established in 1059 by Pasha An’Dulach XI, this shipping line has been actively pursing interstellar trade contracts throughout the Jarnac Subsector. The line has been credited with widespread, unified communication and a general raising of the standard of living in the subsector.

Murian:
Inhabitants of the Altarean Condederation, the Murians are evolved from omnivore / eaters and number approximately 23,7 billion. The are similar to humanity but retain a stocky build and a full coat of thick fur. The Murians are quite technologically advanced, and well-experienced in the use and construction of electronic devices.

Pan.Melesien Company:
Founded by the Allarton Corporation in 956, this company developed the Trelyn Domain possessions in the Coos Subsector, especially the tricky relations with the old Dysith Empire, a formerly important interstellar government.

Portmanteau Shipping Services:
Headquartered at Portmaneteau / Haldensleben, this cartage line was established in 1077 to serve the trailing-coreward area of the subsector. The opening of trade between the Tellerian Cluster of Andwella and the Langemarck Coalition of Pandemonium is one of the line’s achievements. In addition, many of the PSS Courier Ships are in service of VANREX, the Vanguard Reaches Securities Exchange.

VANREAX:
The Vanguard Reaches Securities Exchange was established at Portmanteau / Haldensleben in 1054. It has developed into an important trading center for all major corporations with the Reaches. Results are transmitted via special courier starships ( reputedly Jump-6 ) to insure accurate and timely reporting throughout the sector.
