The Commonwealth of Nephtali

Government

Nephtali is a Capitalist Paradise. Domestic matters are handled by an elected Senate, while foreign policies are handled by an elected Chancellor. Corporations often exercise extreme political power. This is countered by laws which only allow citizens unaffiliated with the corporations to run for office. Possibly the only thing saving Nephtali from itself is the extreme nationalism of its people.

Military

The Nephtali Military Contract is a collection of government contracted private companies which defend the nation. There are 2 main fleet. One protects Nephtali assets in Sol. The other explores and acts as a trade fleet. Nephtali specializes in non-lethal weaponry. This ranges from large-scale energy dampeners to small arms to stun or otherwise incapacitate opponents. All Commonwealth soldiers are Axa. All ship and fleet commanders are Nephtali.

General Labor Inc. is a Private Military Contractor (PMC) responsible for the Commonwealth's Axa soldiers. Oleander Drive Yards is another PMC which provides ships for the Commonwealth's Fleets.

Population

The Nephtali
Plant-based beings. They appear human with elongated fingers, however their internal biology is vastly differant. They drink water like a human, absorb nutrients through their skin, and turn green to photosynthesize.
The Axa
Reptilian humanoids bred as a servant race. Axa stand about 5'6" but are stronger than the average human. They fill any role thier Nephtali masters assign them and have been genetically encoded to be loyal to the Commonwealth.

Population Breakdown:
29% Nephtali
70% Axa
1% Other

Industry & the Slave-Trade

Nephtali is renowned for its slave-trade. Most companies sell genetically engineered slaves of various kinds, however there is a darker side to the slave trade which includes preying on transport ships for new DNA and/or unengineered slaves. The Nephtali are accomplished geneticists, and have created their own servant species, the fanatically loyal Axa.

Some of Nephtali's largest corporations are:
General Labor Inc. (PMC)
Oleander Drive Yards (PMC)
Commonwealth Transit

Tech Level

Nephtali can be described as a mix between Future and Post-Modern Tech. Space-travel and Genetic Engineering are future-tech. However, most everything else is post-modern.
