More Information Regarding the Servais Sector
- Sector Government: All of the populated star systems in the
Servais Cluster/Sector which lie outside of Imperial Restricted Space are
represented (by three individuals each) on the Sector Council. This council's
duties are to regulate trade (via laws, tariffs, etc.), provide a working
representative democracy for the cluster's inhabitants, and to impose and
relegate the laws of the Empire upon the people of the cluster. The council
answers directly to, and receives orders from, the Sector Moff in all matters
concerning law enforcement (via stormtroopers), taxation, civil rights,
and the military. In all matters concerning the council, the Moff has the
final word and ultimate sovereignty, able to override any council decisions.
All council members are selected from each system by their own means/systems
of government, and each system is represented equally. Ideally, the council
is to provide the people of the cluster with a means by which they can
affect the running of the sector by the Moff: i.e., a way to reach his
ear. Unfortunately, almost every system's representative team includes
an Imperial governor or other such representation. In this way, the Empire
is also able to keep the council from getting out of control.
- Sector Communications Network: All media sources in the sector
are closely monitored, and sometimes even controlled, by Imperial Intelligence.
No broadcasts are made without being closely inspected by ImpInt. In this
fashion, no subversive broadcasts may be made, and information about the
Galactic Civil War or the Emperor's death is easily censored/eliminated.
In fact, every few months, the SCN will broadcast an interview or press
conference held by either the "Emperor", or one of several other
important Imperial figures (Darth Vader, Grand Moff Tarkin, Grand Moff
Hill -- oops, sorry).
- Stormtrooper Corps: The stormtroopers of this sector are much
different than their counterparts in the rest of the galaxy. They appear
to be better trained, both physically and mentally, and have better equipment.
Their armor is painted a "low-visibility" gray, and has several
additions to it in the form of systems and weaponry. Like their counterparts,
their origins remain a mystery. Some have speculated that they are clones,
while others believe that they are an alien race of advanced humans who
have been duped into service by the Emperor, and yet others believe that
they have been genetically bred by the Empire. Needless to say, the answer
to that question has yet to be found.
