Khitan Confederation
Kitan Confederation is a union of Khitan planet states, ruled by the Prime Minister. After the Khitans discovered space travel and the technologies required for space colonisation, the Khitan begun to rapidly expand across the galaxy. Unlike the other species, the Khitan government prefer to encourage private expeditions by corporations and adventurers, than to launch official ones. This allowed the Khitans to spread quickly without the need for the government to expend any money. However, this caused the government to have little influence on the Khitan colonises. This led to a large number of colonises to claim independence and sovereignty over its own planets. The government declared war, called The Reclamation War, on the independent planets.
The government won the war, but it came at the cost of many lives. The planets are conquered, but the government found it difficult to keep. The separatists are forging weapons and hiring mercenaries for a counter attack. In order to maintain the peace, the government called for a meeting with the most influential figures from every planets. The meeting concluded with the establishment of the Khitan Confederation. The colonises would join the home world as one nation, and the home world would allow the colonises to have a certain degree of autonomy in exchange. The power of the confederation are shared between all Khitan planets; important decisions regarding the confederation are made by the Prime Minister, elected by the people of the home world, and the Princeps, the rulers of the individual colonises which is elected by the people of those colonises.
