Talk:The Remusian Republic

While I'm working on bringing this page together, any critique or suggestions from you guys that are here would be appreciated. I'm not in TS an awful lot between school and such, so I can just look here for any feedback and such. Thanks

Betel meet the Remusians
The central hub of the area of Betel space that foreign nations would care about is Ikzod, a arid world dotted with oases. Ikzod shares the system with Old Step, a Junk World that had been the main dumping grounds of the Kusheen Empire. Because of their closest worlds being so muddled with the Kusheen, the Remusians did not know of the presence of the Betel so close to them until the Kusheens had been vanquished. Some Betel may have been encountered scavenging the wreckage of the battles.

Ikzod is an ideal world for foreign diplomacy thanks to its suitability for both Betel and non-Betel races. The colony is not terribly extensive but the open spaces, dry climate, and proximity to Old Step made it useful as a spaceport shipping destination. It is ruled by a theoretically meritocratic assembly with no official planetary leader like most Betel worlds. The planetary representative in the Recycler government is Ketol Lorknovin. He holds no real power, per se, but Helm's Hold would likely leave him to represent them locally before the area became more important.

Former High Chancellor Nol Byervid (still alive) would have spent time learning of how the Remusians reformed their navy. Any interaction he had with the Remusians would have been seen as a far-off visitor, and not a neighbour, by the Remusians. He may have gotten info from Kusheen. His yes-man, Golik Maelotumn, remains in Helm's Hold and would be familiar with the Remusians.

Sometime after the two races meet and the Betel have been at war for a some time, Sekno Vorniket, charismatic Ace Pilot of the Xeverra front turned Helm's Hold politician, would have toured the area. His focus would be rallying support, contributions, and greater ties with the Recycler government to get help fighting off the Repzork and Xeverra. Very passionate and idealistic, but also a jingoist. The Remusians may have met with him at some point.

Outside of Ikzod, most Betel you would have found would be pretty "redneck" as far as Betel go. There are other more developed hubs, but this area has never been affluent until the war increased demand.
