Novaya Oversector

The Novaya Oversector is the home of the Novayans, a militaristic human culture and society, and several cultures, the majority of which were human. Located in the far eastern fringes of the known galaxy, the Novayans and their human brethren were isolated from the empire and had developed their worlds. Despite the name, the Novaya Oversector also ran a number of fringe sectors and star systems.
==Worlds of the Novaya Oversector==
The Novaya Oversector was initially colonized by humans from a number of worlds that contributed to the Imperial economy. However, after a galactic war distracted the Galactic Imperium from its far eastern colonization efforts, the ability to maintain contact and trade with its Imperial overlord disappeared, forcing the colonized worlds to adapt. As a result, multiple cultures sprung up, diverging from the main creole Imperial culture. All worlds were to be made self-sufficient, though they would fall under a group of polities which answer to the Novayan military administration. Despite this, each world were given their planetary designation based on their specialties. While this would have hindered the production of materials, food and energy, in reality each world were still self-sufficient due to the fact there were a number of agricultural districts, mining districts, generator districts, and so on that were necessary to society's functions.
In this section, the Novaya Oversector consisted of three star systems: the Novaya trinary system, the Lunaria star system, and the Yamato system. The latter two fall under the de jure jurisdiction of the Novaya trinary system, but it is the Novaya system which holds de facto jurisdictional authority over the two star systems.
<tabber>Novaya Trinary System=The Novaya Trinary System consisted of three star systems: the Novaya star system, which is orbited by the Hakidonmuya and Sojourn star systems. The Novaya star system consisted of thirty worlds (four of which were gas giants, while twenty one of which were moons). Novaya I is used for mining as well as military training grounds, while Novaya II is home to a number of aerial cities. Novaya III and Novaya IV were located in the habitable zone, with the former serving as a fortress world while Novaya IV is a militarized urban world; their moons were colonized, but one remains its barren appearance while the others were terraformed. Four other worlds were gas giants, each having their own aerial habitats, with their moons being used for power production, mining or habitat-based colonization. Novaya IX was the only world to be fully inhabited, serving as a fortress world through which it acts as the "watchtower".
The Hakidonmuya system consisted of eight planets, two of which were gas giants with their own habitats. Hakidonmuya I is used for mining, power production and alloy production, while Hakidonmuya II is a refinery world producing chemical weapons. Hakidonmuya III and its moons and Hakidonmuya IV were in the habitable zone. The gas giant Hakidonmuya V has aerial habitats, but its moon has fortresses. Hakidonmuya VI and Hakidonmuya VII contain research stations.
The Sojourn system consisted of a K-class star, with Sojourn I being nearest and used for the production of minerals and alloys, and Sojourn II, a broken world, being home to a number of habitats. Sojourn III (karst world) and Sojourn IV (continental world) were all in the habitable zone alongside their moons: Sojourn III is a forge and industrial world, dedicated to the production of Novayan robotic combat machines, while Sojourn IV is an arcane-temple world that is home to Epsilon-level thaumaturgist units; Sojourn IIIa and Sojourn IIIb were used form mining and power generation, while Sojourn IVa is an urban world. One of Sojourn V's moon, Sojourn Va, produces advanced arcane technologies, while Sojourn VIa served as a generator world.
----------
Novaya III and IIIa-c, Novaya IV and IVa-b, Hakidonmuya IIIa-c, Hakidonmuya IV, Sojourn III and IIIa-b, Sojourn IV, and Sojourn IVa were all similar to habitable worlds though their planetary environment varies on their appearances. Even though they are populated, environmental and social policies were implemented to prevent the pollution and decay normally associated with the Imperial core worlds.
Novaya IV, a militarized urban world, served as the capital world of the oversector because it is the first to be colonized. The metropolitan areas and a few megalopolises were known to be militarized, with civilian vehicles being well-armored and buildings fortified and armored and built to function as strongpoints in their cities' defenses. Civilians who received military training were considered as military reservists, military bases were set up within or outside cities and in the wilderness, outposts, checkpoints, guard posts and patrol bases were set up and manned within and outside cities, the planetary police forces were augmented by military police personnel and semi-militarized, every single building (military or not) were fortified and armored against attacks, all vehicles were armored, bunkers, strongholds and fortresses were built and manned, and the noble estates were heavily-fortified and secured with rooftop landing pads equipped. Factories will switch production of civilian vehicles to production of military vehicles at a moment's notice, trains have both civilian and military purposes, large caches of old or new military equipment were stashed in underground bunkers and armories, schools have teachers who serve as part-time military personnel, and recruitment posts were in select locations.
Novaya III, on the other hand, is a fortress world consisting of heavily militarized factories, massive fortress and secure bunker complexes, and underground, and well-secured, heavily-fortified underground/surface habitation sectors. Because of the fact it is administered by a military governorate of military governorates (or rather, a military junta whose officers administer the various governorates), it is known as the most heavily defended planet and with a total population of thirteen billion. Measures to prepare for war or to rebuild were already taken: strict rationing, widespread martial law, and a mandatory one child policy, with every available resource put into reconstruction and opportunities only afforded to those whose knowledge and expertise will greatly benefit reconstruction efforts. Also, in order to become a citizen of Novaya III and gain citizen rights and franchise, any of the following must be taken:
*they must serve for 1-3 years in the military service;
*they must serve as experimental test subjects;
*they must serve in any of the civil services; and
*they must be enrolled in teaching.
Those who finished their servies will receive the following benefits:
*They are able to vote in regional or planetary elections.
*If they wish to attend college, they are given lower or no tuition fees.
*They are given special permission to have more than two children.
Because of this martial culture, Novayans who live in Novaya IV had their social status dictated by military rank, which in turn lead to the upper echelons of command within the Novayan military to be highly classist - importance being placed on being from a military family or one's bloodlines as well as military competence. After several reforms, however, the upper command echelons were filled with military officers who were appointed based on their merits and competence instead of one's bloodlines or of a military family.
|-|Lunaria System=The Lunaria System is home to the Lunarian theocratic church-state, which answers directly to the Novayan military administration. It is this star system that it is the home of eight Saintly Orders and six Church Militant holy orders.
Lunaria I is used for mining while Lunaria II is a hothouse world, left alone. Lunaria III is home to four of the eight Saintly Orders and its cities administered by the Lunarian Church.
----------
The Lunarian Church served as the [AWAITING DECLASSIFICATION].
|-|Yamato System=The Yamato system is home to the Yamato Shogunate, which answers to the Novayan military administration and, led by the Amaterasu Dynasty.</tabber>
===Novaya Sector===
Because the colonial and military administrative bodies ruled the entire oversector, they have the option to directly rule the other planets themselves. Other than emergencies, such rule is limited to the Novaya Sector.
