Like all the Par'thinian worlds, the [[Valcarian Imperial Republic|Valcarian Empire]] has assigned an Imperial governor to supervise each Freeworld. Officially, the governor has supreme authority over his world, but in day-to-day affairs he tends to defer to local government officials. The [[Par'tha Expanse]] is supervised by a Grand Governor appointed by the Emperor, and this territory includes the Freeworlds as well as the [[Expanse Sector|Expanse]]. Again, the Grand Governor is less powerful in fact than in theory, though some believe this could change if Imperial interests in the sector grew. | Like all the Par'thinian worlds, the [[Valcarian Imperial Republic|Valcarian Empire]] has assigned an Imperial governor to supervise each Freeworld.

Mining is big business in the Freeworlds Region, and the prominent mining companies are all members of the Mining Guild. This gives them a lot of pull in the governments of each Freeworld, and in the Freeworlds Council. | Mining is big business in the [[Freeworlds Region]], and the prominent mining companies are all members of the [[Mining Guild]].

More recently, Alpha Quadrant entities such as the Ferengi Commerce Association and the United Federation of Planets have arrived on scene. If the Freeworlds could reopen trade through the [[Jenatris Corridor]] they would retake their place as a major power in the sector. | More recently, Alpha Quadrant entities such as the Ferengi Commerce Association and the United Federation of Planets have arrived on scene.
