Threa'ya is ruled by a loose matriarchal styled society and government. This is really only represented in their family cast system and by the ruling force which is built of a council of eight female leaders with an empress serving as leader of the military. The Empress in this system has little more power than a general would in other systems, but she is also viewed as a sort of divine presence as she is blessed by their god of war and peace. It is believed that no matter how hard the battle is, so long as the empress is alive their army will eventually prevail. The eight council leaders are in turn the rulers of their respective territories and the heads of the most powerful and longest ruling family bloodlines on the planet. | Threa'ya is ruled by a loose matriarchal styled society and government.

In the past males were treated as less capable and less intelligent than females. Religious practices such as worship of the divine and daily temple offerings were much more important to society. While the traditions and stigmas of the past do still form the foundation of Threan life, such beliefs and practices are losing their strength and appeal within modern Threan society. | |||
Although a relatively peaceful people the Threans are a very proud warrior race, having developed several forms of martial arts. And while not as warlike as the Human's in their past the Threans have plenty of bloody history having only cast aside war and unified as a species one hundred years ago. | Although a relatively peaceful people the Threans are a very proud warrior race, having developed several forms of martial arts.
