Monan Republic

The Monan republic is a minor nation/rump state bordering the Zed'drath Imperium and The Animus.

Government Structure
Despite having "republic" in its name, the Monan are ruled by a dictatorship. All laws are passed only by the authority of the Supreme Leader. Since the Republic's founding there has only been one Supreme Leader, Lacoa.

Society
The Monan people have been seen as creating a cult of personality for their Supreme Leader Lacoa, always highlighting his good traits and deeds and never speaking ill of him. The shear number of propaganda most Monan are subjected to since birth is to distract them from Lacoa's widespread basic sentient rights abuses and to keep the hate of the Zed'drath Imperium and UST alive.

History
The Republic used to be a much larger nation encompassing the systems around Qvorite Autocracy and Othosaz Pact. They had lost these areas since Monan-Falmitan war. When the final hive war was over they had sought to reclaim their systems only to see them divided between the victors, the Zed'drath and Sullustans. Ever since then, they have held a serious grudge against the two powers, building their military and defenses up to retake what they believe is rightfully theirs.
