Dearoth - The homeworld of the species of Jerram.
Derae - The center of the fleet, hidden in the outer solar system and built into the moon of a gas giant.
[/hider]

[hider=Brief History]
The species of Jerram have a long history of violence, everything forged in the crucible of war, under the hammer of weapons and men. Only recently they have managed a shaky, global peace under the unifying arm of the Hegemony. Originally, each of the petty nation-states of Dearoth maintained their own fleets and their own mining operations, but one by one they fell to the Sovereignity until global unification had been established. Now, an elected Sovereign watches over a unified planet, while the fleet itself maintains its own standing in the stars, separate from politics.

They have blossomed in their own solar system, even without the use of FTL drives. Though it takes years to travel back and forth between the various mining operations, planetary outposts, and moons of the Sovereignity, they have maintained a steady balance. With extensive asteroid mining operations, they do not lack for resources.[/hider]

The Jerrak are an insectoid species, with fuzzy bodies, fuzzy attenae, and vestigial wings. They are dazzled by bright lights, and have two pincer mandibles set on their face, acting as a mouth.
[/hider]

[hider=Policy]
War - War is viewed as an evil, particularly after the Unification Wars. The fleet maintains peace in space while the Sovereign and his ministers are charged with preventing any breakouts of war on the surface of Dearoth.
[/hider]

[hider=Economy]
The Jerrak sport a healthy cultural diversity and, for a one-planet nation, a strong economy. Under the Sovereign it has flourished and just about any type of industry can be found somewhere on the planet. From the lowliest shrubbery designer to the highest of industry leaders, the Sovereignty is in the middle of an economic boom.
