-- Faction Overview. --

EMPIRE:
-------

  -- The Empire consists of the hard nuclei (Emperor) and assosciated Houses.
     The Houses can only be created by the Emporer's whim and are allowed to
     participate in the Galaxy politics.

     -- GREAT HOUSES:
          -- SIRIUS
            -- Religious nuts.

          -- PROTERON:
            -- Close allies of Sirius.

          -- SOROMID:
            -- Emperor's right hand.

          -- DRAKTHARR:
            -- Brutal and more primitive, very warlike.

          -- TEK'NUS:
            -- Technophiles of the Empire, distrusted by most.

      -- MINOR HOUSES:
          -- These houses are given the privileges to participate in the Council,
             but do not have the powers the other Houses have, nor the influence.

          -- GODDARD:
            -- Design and take care of the Goddard ships.

DETOURS LIBERATION FRONT:
-------------------------

  -- The Early Tribes that where shunned in the Empire creation and have since
     then forged the Detours Liberation Front (DLF) into a guerilla resistance
     movement to resist the advances by the Empire. They employ dirty tactics
     to level the playing field against the superior Empire.

SPACE TRADERS:
--------------
  -- Independent guild of merchants, protected by the Emporer himself. They
     keep the galaxy working with their deliveries.

PIRATES:
--------
  -- Space brought an entire new dimenstion to pirating. These outlaws attack
     any ship transporting anything of value with no regard nor respect to
     authority.
