Structure

The Warrior Eminence, or Mand`alor (which means "Sole Ruler" in Mando'a) rules over Mandalore, holding the respect and power over all Mandalorians. Each citizen takes an oath to serve and obey their glorious leader resulting in every adult being a member of the military. Even those in what others might normally consider civilian occupations hold an equivalent military rank. The Mand'alor, with left and right hands representing the Chiefs of the Army and Navy, make up the Triad which is responsible for the passing of all laws and the making of all large decisions which effect Mandalore. The Triad has been challenged only twice in one thousand years, a fact reflecting the great esteem held for them by the Mando'ade.

Complementing the authority of the Triad is a traditional Clan System. The power of the Clans is small and chiefly cultural. In modern times, their governance is centralized in a Clan Council under the direction of the Triad who are respectful of their heritage. As many as 10,000 Clans have rose and fell over the long tragic and noble history of Mandalore, all tracing their beginnings to five original Clans established immediately after the Crash. Due to the political turmoil of the Second Era and the ever-growing unity of Mandalore's people, what were once numerous beyond reason have ultimately coalesced into today's twelve Clans.


Mandalore itself is the government body of the the four Mandalcorps divisions. MandalMining is responsible for the prospecting of Mandalore territory and also is the main supplier of all the raw materials. MandalMotors is responsible for Mandalore's fleet and finally MandalTech which produces all of its weaponry and ammunition. All of the subcorps are directed by a CEO and XO and are able to both operate on their own and in coordination with all of its brother divisions.

History

Ancient History

The Mandalore, one of the first human colony ships, was on its way to a recently charted system on the Rim when an on-board ship malfunction caused the ship to make the jump to hyperspace in the completely opposite direction of the path intended. The resulting crash landing left thousands of passengers stranded alone in an uncharted system that contained only one inhabitable planet. With no way to communicate their location back to those who might come to their aid, the colonists had to fight to survive. Over the many thousands of years of struggling to survive these strong people evolved into the culture now known as "Mandalorians", or Mando'ade in their native tongue of Mando'a.

Initially humans, the Mandalorians continued to develop in their isolation, eventually coming into contact with an alien race that had never before been encountered. This race, which re-taught them the wonders of technology that had long been forgotten is now, sadly, extinct - victims to one of the many great conflicts that have challenged the Mando'ade in their blood-soak history. Over several thousand years the Mandalorians developed their own research facilities, the most productive outcome being their famous armor. Only the learned suspected their human past. Other races in the universe guessed the Mando natives were yet just another example of parallel evolution.

Historically, Mandalore was isolated from the rest of the galaxy, at first physically and then later by an isolationistic tradition. At the end of a long age of conflict the Mandalorian population now includes numerous races from throughout known space and openly embraces immigrants from other cultures and species willing to adapt to Mandalore civilization. Today, the Abrion Sector of the Mandalorians is proudly as cosmopolitan as any other major Galactic Society.


Rebirth

Mandalore was reborn in the Tau Sakar system in the latter part of year 5 (then known as the Abrion system). Unknown to the public, the lost Mandalore system had been relocated and colonised in secret. As the company was founded, its headquarters were erected on both Abrion Major and Mandalore, keeping the secret of Mandalore safe.

The initial years were tough for the reborn group with veteran warriors Tyr DeMeer, Plo Qaan, Andrew Panzer and Vong Gin`aal leading the way. Others such as Vandar Nijed, Leos Adrynn, Chin Chon, Diomedes Nacca, Fitz Dantilles and Hermes Gemini began their personal rise to prominence as well. 2 years after the initial founding the first major colonisation in Abrion space took place to fund the restoration activity. Other hidden systems were located and secretly colonised by relocated refugees from the galactic wars.

Progression

It was at this time that a new generation of veterans began to appear who would lead the Mandalore group through the beginning years and into ascendancy. Mandalorians such as Morcha Drayson, Tuki Anvareth, Cesodevo Avina, Verdre To, Grevendar Togl, Ven Ann, Lucas Draven and many more joined the effort to re-establish Mandalore. In Year 7 Abrion Minor was fully colonised as the Mandalorian refugees hear the call to return.

It was at this time that the clans of Mandalore were re-convened by direct order of the Warrior Eminence, Mand'alor Tyr DeMeer. 12 clans, the only ones remaining, were brought together in unity to work towards the betterment of Mandalore (for more information about the Clans and their development please see below).

The first major offensive

Over the years, Mandalore built up its forces and exchanged its technologies, preparing for full rearmament. This culminated in the great revenge plot that brought the NAO (now the Anzatan Commonwealth) to its' knees in vengeance against the tyrannical dictator Wilhelm Von Ismay. After prolonged scout missions a small cluster of planets as found close to the capital of Anzat. Here Mandalorian forces shepherded refugees and settled them in new colonies until their numbers outweighed those of the Anzatan worlds. Positioning their forces to strike, Mandalore revealed their new strike location and were instantly elected Sector Government. With official authority the Mand'alor ordered his forces to strike. As supercommando detachments descended upon the asteroids of the Anzat system, hundreds of drop ships invaded the capital of Anzat, arresting any senior Anzatan leaders for trial and conviction at a later date.

Several months of deadlock passed with the NAO on the brink of collapse, only to have the NAO assassinate their own leader. With the despot Von Ismay removed, Chancellor Vong Gin'aal signed a peace treaty within one standard month restoring peace to the once enemy held territory.

Politics

Mandalore is a member of the Imperial Union.


Clans

The clan system was lost for decades until Year 8 when 2 ambitious and committed Mandalorians launched a project to officially re-establish the clans under Manda'lor Tyr DeMeer. Verdre To and Morcha Drayson were these Mandalorians, who, working together for months with the Triad finally succeeded. Today, 12 Clans stand to support the Manda'lor while others claiming Mandalorian heritage have returned to support Kai Oryk.

  • Ar'Klim
  • A'skimus
  • D'ael'mor
  • Du'Trachek
  • Jaik'ran
  • Krei'ger
  • K'yltek
  • Par'Tay'On
  • S'badai
  • Tm'Halk
  • Tr'zch
  • Vr'caah

A Clan Council, composed of Aliit'Buir (Clan Fathers) and run by a (Clan Council Chairman) is in existence, holding responsbility for the growth of the clans.

Culture

There is no such custom as marriage among the Mando'ade. When a man and woman mutually decide to have a child, no ceremony officially links the two as mutual partners. Nor does anything guarantee that the mother and father will live together to raise the child, or even that the two will continue to bear children with one another exclusively in the future. The child of Mando parents usually spends six months with their mother and six months with their father each year until the child is old enough to live on its own though the customs of recognizing offspring and parenting responsibilities can vary from Clan to Clan.

Surprising many outsiders, Mando warrior culture does not recognize saluting during everyday military interaction. A simple nod of respect is all that is required when encountering a superior officer; the only exception being during designated formal events, when an official salute is preferred. Due to the fact that citizens of Mandalore who commit any kind of criminal action were traditionally put to death, the crime rate of the Mandalorian people is almost non-existent. Today punishments are less severe and the low crime rate is more a mark of respect towards their leaders and the trust they place in them.
