Xai Autonomous Regions

The Xai Autonomous Regions, also known as XARs, are the many Xai nation that exist within the Xai Ascendancy that governs the Xyon Sector today. Serving as client states of the Ascendancy, each XAR covers a number of worlds and moons were its government and military reign in the name of the Patriarch of the Xai. While they are classed as provinces within the greater empire, each is effectively independent, with only the core worlds of the Xai'athus Sub-Sector under the direct control of the Patriarch. Each autonomous region is lead by a leader who is elected, inherits the power, or takes it by force, each depending on the culture of the people the region represents.

The region can vary in size in strength, being as large as the Xanian Dominion or as small as the Nishati Directorate. Additionally, inter-XAR politics is allowed, permitting such alliances as the Hyperion Coalition to exist. Militaries maintained by the regions are classed as "military police forces", but are easily capable of waging interstellar conflicts with ease. The Ascendancy itself maintains a much larger and better equipped force, but given the selfish and imperialistic views of the Imperial Xai, the central military is kept confined to the homeworlds.
