The Unified Worlds of the Neupert Prefecture, officially referred to as the Neupert Prefecture, are the last remnants of the once mighty Rhyno Confederacy which laid claim to over half the galaxy before an internal power struggle caused a galaxy spanning collapse. The Neupert Prefecture was the only regional authority to maintain the same power structure and leaders through the Rhyno Confederacy Civil War.

History

The Neupert race originates from Tahakomolo, a small world orbiting a gas giant. When discovered by the Rhyno Confederacy, they were selected from their Industrial Age growth for elevation to a ruling class for their long lifespans. A large gene pool of Neupert’s were relocated to a nearby habitable world which was named Newport.

The long-lived Neupert’s learned the history of the Confederacy and were collectively given a larger territory to administer over the next millennium. When the Civil War erupted, the prefecture under command by the Neupert’s, known as a Katchi District stayed loyal to the Confederacy and provided a strong base of operations for loyalist vessels.

When Skywatch fell, capital of the Rhyno Confederacy, the last Councilor of the Confederation conferred a legal and full independence of the Neupert Prefecture. It was a largely ceremonial gesture as the entire Confederate base had eroded to a point of obsolescence.

Over the next hundred years, several short-lived pretenders attempted to reunify the old Confederate territory under a new banner. Each time the Neupert Prefecture declared war, maintaining an active resistance against any claims to the Rhyno’s legacy.

On the sesquicentennial of the fall of the Confederacy, a former backwater world won a surprise victory against the Rew Confederacy, laying claim to several of their colonies as terms for the armistice. This victory, scored by the Rogers Republic introduced a paradigm shift as they held free and open elections on the colonial worlds.

The massive Rhnyo shipyards at Holt remain a point of rising tension between the new Rogers Republic and the Neupert Prefecture. Both empires have controlled the yards, and have fought several wars for control.

Legacy

Members of the original culled gene seed are still alive, and hold the original Rhyno traditions as a cult-like fanatic.

Size

The Neupert Prefecture consists of nine solar systems, including one tri-solar system, which orbit each other across the distance of space.

Newport

Home of the Neupert people, seeded by the Rhyno Confederacy to uplift the pre-sapient species the Neupert come from. Their original home, Tahakomolo, neighbors a neighboring star and is a natural preserve for the remaining pre-sapient Neupertians that weren't selected for uplifting.

Ekhard

Garrison world of the Rhyno Confederacy. Ekhard is home to the internationally renowned premier Naval Academy. Also home to Neupert Marine Camp Hassiato. Ekhard has a diverse population of Rhyneese descendants and Neupertians.

Tiil

Home to the Tiilites, an uplifted specified by the Rhyno Confederacy.

K-sharn

K-sharn has three planets in the Goldilocks zone with rich temperate climates, creating a bread-basket system, but has suffered from war and occupation. It sits on the border of Neupert and Rogers Republic space. Its value as a galactic food source has seen it change hands during The First Rhyno-Rogers War and The Third Rhyno-Rogers War. Most recently, the Neupert Prefecture re-took the planet during Operation Night Flight after inciting an uprising using clandestine forces.

Nillip

A stellar catastrophe in the Nillip system turned its six major stellar bodies into fields or mineral-dense asteroids. The colonies in the Nillip system are either mining colonies on larger asteroids or large-scale space stations to manage processing and storage.

Arenasar

Arenasar contains a single habitable planet that primarily manages the massive shipping and receiving yards that float silently through the system. This system has a strong naval presence to prevent pirates from prying on Neupert commerce.

Mavis

Mavis has half its solar system darkened after the Rhyno Confederacy failed to complete the Dyson Sphere they were building. This resulted in all habitable planets within the system turning to ice for half of their rotational cycle. A colony was established along the twilight edge of the Dyson sphere, and industrial mining and scientific research took advantage of the unique system.

Trinary Star Alliance

A unique system and former sovereign alliance, the Trinary Star Alliance is formed of three solar systems that slowly rotate each other as they rotate around the galactic core. While technically not a single system, they've operated as a single entity for so long, they are often marked and considered a single system. The Trinary Star Alliance enjoys autonomy within the Neupert Prefecture, making independent trade alliances, printing currency, and independently registering vessels.

Felworld

Felworld is an ancient sister penal colony to Feral World. Originally left to corporate governance, after years of neglect and abuse, the Neupert Prefecture nationalized the colony and maintains several installations on the planet.
