Sonaian space


The Sonaj system, or S1 as it is known to scientists, is the centre of power of the Sonaian Empire. It contains the Sonaian capitol, Sonaj City, base of operations for the Sonaian government, military and home of the Emperor.
The Empiria Centauri system is located approx. 5 lightyears from the Sonaj system, and contains the greater part of Sonaian resource gathering and constructive facilities.
The Nojash system is located 12 lightyears from the Sonaj system, and is heavily guarded against intruders. In Nojash, most weapons and military equipment of Sonaj is produced, and most clone warriors are bred here.

The Leaders of Sonaj

Millenia ago, Sonaj was a thriving republic, but a civil war shattered the power of the government. The new leaders did not believe in Sonajara, and burned and pillaged the holy shrines. From that moment on, Sonaj fell. It fell for several hundred of years, until one day a fire started in Sonaj City. The fire spread, and it could not be put out. The flames were black, and burned only those who denied Sonajara. The fire spread over thousands of worlds, it is written in many planets history that "millions died, burning into darkness". Ten years later, the Emperor claimed the throne of Sonaj. From that day, Sonaj has been flourishing. This is a list of the leaders as they are today:

Present day

Alliances

Sonaj has always seen the positive outcomes possible by allies, and has not been slow in aiding those who can later on become useful friends. Sonaj has also joined several alliances, and has an embassy-program well under way, with eleven nations represented so far.
The following are the alliances in which Sonaj participate:

The Galactic Empire (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=423197)
The Imperial Confedracy (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=379994)

The UNA (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=439801)

General

Culture
In Sonaj, all people are equal, with the exeption of the Emperor and his Clones. Sonaj is a totalitarian state, all but the ones at the top are oppressed.

Holidays
There are no holidays in Sonaj. Everyone work every day. This of course shortens average life length to far below possible.

Religion
Religion is central in the Sonaian life, as it has been since the creation of the Emperor. All non-believers are stalked and killed by Sonaian forces, a certain few are sacrificed to Sonajara by battling the Emperor in an arena built specifically for that purpose. These are estimates of belief in Sonaj (new residents not included):
Sonajarans: 98%
Atheist/Non-Religious 2%
