Hutt Cartel

The Hutt Cartel or the United Hutt Cartels was the ruling organization of the Hutt species as well as many other slave species under their thrall.

Government Structure
The Hutt Cartel was a large criminal syndicate originally born out of the union of rival gang families within the home world. The Hutt control all aspect of ”government functions” while all other species are either soldiers, citizens or slaves. The syndicate is run by a council of Hutt representatives, each from the gang families. These Hutt then elect a individual amongst themselves to represent them on the galactic stage, the so called Head Hutt.

Society
A stark contrast to popular belief, the Hutt Cartel are not an anarchic state where criminals do what they want, there is order and structure within the state. Crime was heavily controlled through guilds and were loosely funded by the government. Guilds followed strict guidelines and never strayed from their criminal fields such as an assassin guild only dealing with murder and etc. Slavery was common throughout Hutt society with the Xamite being the most numerous. Slavery guilds were much larger than other guilds and most members had active roles in governmental affairs.

History
The Hutt originally were from a distant star system well away from their current home world of Nal Hutta. Infact the planet wasn’t theirs nor was the planet originally named that way. Nal Hutta or Xam was the actual home world of the Xamites, one of the Hutts most numerous slaves. The Hutts arrived over Xam approximately 350 years before the Hutt-Hegemony war and invaded with relative ease. They consolidated their power on the planet and began aggressively expanding southwards. They absorb several civilizations in their conquest for slaves with the Xamites in tow. The humanoid Brunali, insecticide Bizani and the lithoid Brullthrull fell quickly to the vastly superior slave armies of the Hutts and were forced to become new slave warriors, pleasure slaves or miners. Other species were tricked or forced into slavery through business dealings or debt. By 2209 the Hutts had amassed a large slaving empire with business ties in other surrounding fledgling nations. 2210, the Hutts arrived at the Saranis Asari home world and conquered their planet along with their moon

colony. Their expansion southwards suddenly ended when they had made 1st contact with the Hegemony of Hazon.

Hazonite-Hutt War
Relations between the two powers were already tense due to both races slave dealings. Yet they were often seen on worlds bordering their respective nations. Crime on these worlds were very high, contributing to a vast underground criminal network that spanned to several worlds. These worlds were under control under various criminal gangs and organizations that often fought over drugs,slaves and other illegal resources. The largest of these gangs were frequently employed by their governments to attack one another for influence on a planet. These government sanctioned gang wars greatly destabilize the worlds in which they were held. These skirmishes paled in comparison to the Great Gang War of 2214, where two of the largest rival gangs attack each other in the streets of Nal Shatta. These gangs were government-backed gangs who fought over control of the planet’s large slaving businesses. The gang war spread to several nearby worlds on both species worlds. It only got worst when an alliance of slavery guilds convince the head Hutt to officially declare war on the HOH in order to help defend their business interests. Therefore the United Cartels declared war on the Hegemony on 2215 to break up the Hegemony into smaller faction for easier conquest later. Battles erupted across the border. Even though the Hutts had more ships and soldiers their Barges and already demoralized slave soldiers were no match for the well trained and disciplined army and navy of the Hegemony and broke through the Hutts’ defensive line in a large offensive operation. By 2218 they Hutts were beaten back to their Capital. A Xamite slave rebellion on the moon Nal Shaduun separated their forces in two. The. Xamites were easily defeated but gave enough time as a distraction for the Hegemony to break through Nal Hutta’s space defenses and land a large amount of troops on the planet. Most guild leaders were captured or killed with the Head Hutt seemingly missing during the initial chaos of the invasion. By 2219 the writing was on the wall for the United Cartels and they capitulated in August. Mostly all Hutts were enslaved and their slaves added to the now growing Hegemony. However Nal-Hutta remains a hotbed of criminal activity with the Hegemony having loose control over it due to corruption and criminal gangs. In the deepest dark corners of the planet there is talk of sedition and unite the gangs and cartels once again under the Head Hutt.

Hutt-Hasadi war

Meanwhile during the conflict, the Hutts were exploring their nothern territories for slaves to fight in the war. They discovered the Hasadi system which was inhabited by pre-warp Czyrni and Pyorun who fought each in some long ancient war and were just recovering from nuclear war. Their primitive satellites immediately detected the hutts star base and several stations in the system. They quickly re-establish contact with each other formed a unitrd council to discuss their options on handling the invaders. They sent a request to the Hutts after translating their language asking them to leave their system. The Hutts immediately decline and sent a task force up to capture their planets. Before they could reach the system they were called back to help defend the home system. The Hutts in the Hasadi system soon abandoned their stations for fear of being captured and dissected, leaving the Czyrni and Pyorun valuable technology.
