Confederacy of Duncinae

            The Confederacy of Duncinae was founded by refugees from the First Civil War (309 to 328) in the Principality of Caledon.  It has since reestablished close relations with the mother nation and enjoys cultural and economic ties that benefit both.  The Confederacy is ruled as a loose hegemony of states where individual freedoms are highly valued (where conditions permit) and local governments enjoy considerable independence.   The capital at Duncinae (Reavers' Deep 1624) rules over seven other worlds in the Ea and Drexilthar subsectors.

            Currently tensions are running high between the Grand Duchy of Marlheim due to the MacBeth Affair.  Roger Vane, the former ambassador to Marlheim (Reavers' Deep 1230) is expected to win the election as President of the Confederacy Council.  He is expected to take a much stronger stance with regard to relations with the Grand Duchy than the current administration.
