THE
REPUBLIC OF CORONA
INTRODUCTION
The newly discovered Draconian Periphery quickly became a haven for freedom lovers, smugglers, adventurers, rebels and misfits from throughout the Stellar Empire. In 191/38 these pioneers formed the Republic of Corona (ROC) for mutual protection, governance and benefit. The ROC quickly became the most successful affiliation in the Draconian Periphery as it explored and developed the newly discovered systems.
In 194/43 the PTE merged with the ROC and the capital of the Republic was established at ROC Corona. The ROC is a constitutional democracy, its citizens are fiercely loyal, proud and patriotic, they fear the power and greed of the Stellar Empire.
TERRITORY, CITIZENS, GOALS
The ROC is a governmental affiliation; its Territory is all the Systems of the Draconian Cluster, in addition to any systems or portions of systems that the Republic may subsequently claim. Any colonist, ship crew member or soldier normally resident within the Territory of the ROC , or a member of a ROC position is a citizen of the Republic.
The goal of the ROC is to protect the civil and property rights of its citizens. It is the duty of every ROC citizen to seek the destruction of ROC posted positions by any available means.
