Vaiaelon War Pact
The national government for the Vaiaelon core worlds.
Culture
They see themselves as a species fiercely united despite cultural differences against a hostile galaxy intent on their destruction.
The public possesses a deep seeded hatred of humans, and general cautiousness of anything else. They will be distrusting and hostile, unless said outsiders prove themselves at the very least to not be a threat. (As is the case with the Fennecs and Kitsunes)
Public Agenda
Their overall focus of the VWP is to ensure the survival of the Vaiaelon people, with everything else being derived from that in some way or another. The most pressing matter falling into this category is eliminating potential threats, be it through strengthening defences or weakening enemies, if not eliminating them.
History
1779PC - first large scale conflict between numerous nations emerges, retroactively referred to as AW-I (Aruz War-I)
2004PC - AW-IV concluded, sees advent of nuclear armament
2027PC-2031PC - AW-V, small scale conflicts eventually devolving into nuclear annihilation, significant portion of northern hemisphere rendered uninhabitable for centuries
2187PC - Advent of “AQP” Devices (Applied Quantum Physics), notably includes a device that completely disables nuclear fission within its area of effect
2188PC - AW-VI, combat on a previously unheard of scale and complexity, advent of space combat
2217PC - AW-VI concluded, ended in truce, both sides decided it would be better to work together for the betterment of the Vaiaelon people, Vaiaelon War Pact founded
2220PC-53SC - large scale expansion into Chiark
79SC - discovery of Sublane Network, interstellar expansion begins, widespread concern at lack of suitable planets for colonisation
122SC-130SC - first contact with several other interstellar nations
136SC - requests for colonisation rights of suitable planets in neighbouring nations denied, diplomacy begins to break down
152SC - war decided as only feasible option for long term survival, Chiark will go red giant in ~900 standard stellar cycles
208SC - First Interstellar War concluded, population reduced to 22% of pre-war numbers. enemy nations wiped from the map, refugees are denied rights and forced to other nations
210SC-248SC(present) - heavy industrialisation and subsequent militarisation to prevent a repeat of past events

Demography and Population
There is no official or unspoken class divide.
Territories
The VWP only gives proper names to inhabited systems, the rest retrieving numerical designations.
Owned Systems:
Chiark - The home system of the VWP, containing their origin world. Zhada - A core system of the VWP consisting of several ringworld installations. Misrip - A core system of the VWP consisting of several ringworld installations. Aktsi - A core system of the VWP consisting of several ringworld installations. 19 further uninhabited systems:
Primarily home to colossal mining complexes, some spanning entire planets. The constant shipping of workforce and resources to and from the complexes has put tremendous strain on the transport industry, resulting in an output below what’s expected, however the situation has been showing signs of improvement as of late.

Religion
The grand majority, 50+%, are atheists, placing their faith firmly in science. The most prominent religion besides that is Hadrii, which tells that everyone's 'path' is laid out for them from birth, in other words; everything you will ever do is already decided. These 'paths' are laid out by the great guide, Hadalen. Some would view this as depressing; the thought that free will is an illusion. However the primary teaching of the religion is to use that illusion to follow a more unique path, in other words; live a good life.
Education
It varies from system to system, as they are given a notable degree of self governance. In most cases basic education is free, with further education being paid. Military studies and training are subject options.
Founding Date
1657SC
Type
Governmental, Senate/Parliament
Demonym
Vaiaelon or 'Lon
Government System
Democracy, Parliamentary
Legislative Body
The VWP is ran by a democratically elected council, each are equal in power so there is no true head of state
Judicial Body
There is a branch of the military for which only a name exists. Translated into Standard as Darkfleet, the group is more mysterious than sinister. Full size warships clad in its marking scheme have been sighted from time to time, meaning it certainly doesn’t lack funding. Other than that, nothing is known about the fleet; no objectives, no purposes, no numbers.
