But the region was not always such a place. Once there was a good and pure government on the world of [[Valcaria]] known as the Valcarian Republic. In this relative utopia, however, selfish and unscrupulous individuals managed to seize power from within and turn its government away from the betterment of its people and toward enriching and empowering themselves. | But the region was not always such a place.

[[Valcaria]] was once a great republic of nations. Dozens of member countries were governed fairly and efficiently by the Directory. Inevitably, as the [[Valcarian]]s reached out into their star system, and then further, the Republic found itself saddled with too massive a bureaucracy. | [[Valcaria]] was once a great republic of nations.

The loyalist directors were encouraged that Altharra had not fallen in with the corrupt directors, and still had the Republic's best interests at heart, made obvious by his patriotism and military victories, while the fallen directors took heart from his apparent docility and lack of political experience. Each side believed Altharra would serve their needs. | The loyalist directors were encouraged that Altharra had not fallen in with the corrupt directors, and still had the Republic's best interests at heart, made obvious by his patriotism and military victories, while the fallen directors took heart from his apparent docility and lack of political experience.

Despite Altharra's machinations, the Empire is consistently infighting - corruption can only spread so far before control is impossible to maintain. Various military fleets and armies often fight amongst each other depending on which politicians are in favor at the time, and fear is often used as a tool - ineffective in the long term though it may be - to maintain control. Because of this, the Empire often looks outward for new territory and resources that are completely or relatively unprotected, rather than attempt to work through the red tape of the Empire's bureocracy in order to get what they need. | Despite Altharra's machinations, the Empire is consistently infighting - corruption can only spread so far before control is impossible to maintain.
