Description

Humanoid bisexual bipeds. Long bony ridge extended from crown to the middle of the nose bridge. Average lifespan is 94 Earth years. Strength is that of humans. Anatomy is similar to that of humans except for a blue color blood.

Government

A military coup in late 2384 by Lieutenant General Porkil overthrew the 80-year-long reign of the Science-based government. The coup was brought about after the Federation threatened to destroy the Nipron Fleet (consisting of only four 4 ships) for aiding the Mulluran Freedom Fighters in the capture of three Starfleet officers. The Military was tired of the Science-led government which brought nothing but suffering to the people for 82 years. The head of the government, General Porkil, leads a council of 4 Senior Military Leaders. The Military allows free speech and free press. It is rather relaxed for a Dictatorship.

Diplomatic Relations

Only two Alpha Quadrant powers recognize the Military-led Government: Cardassia and Bajor. An ambassador was sent to Earth with a letter of apology for the kidnapping of the Starfleet officers to try and restore diplomatic ties.

Military Assets

34,000 Regular Army, 54,000 Reserve Army. Fleet has yet to rebuild but stands at 3 outdated cruisers, 340 Officers and 890 Enlisted. Cardassia has sent 12 Galor class vessels, and a team of Engineers to help rebuild their fleet.

Economy

Largely farming and trading. 82 Years of living under the Mulluran sword has basically stripped most natural resources. However in early 2385 the Military colonized a large Class M planet with a large number of resources.
