Goldo Clan

## Lore

One of the later early banished to arrive. And with the condition their ship came in that was almost also the place where GC's story ended. With no early resources to gather and trade. And no close neighbors to raid GC almost withered like so many other early starters into nothing. The early settlers however banded together and in one final push for survival had a deep belt resource gathering mission where they knew only the strongest would survive. Only the strong survived. But they came back with everything they needed to survive. They found an asteroid large asteroid filled with all matter of rare minerals like gold. They used these resources to quickly barter their way to survival. The worked hard to get more of this lifeblood of an asteroid and not long after they had a full mining guild around it and several high-quality ships in the making.

As GC's power grew so did its greed. GC begun raiding other groups and capturing their members. The made them work on their asteroids of fortune. But GC still remembering the time they were weak themselves would however give the strong the opportunity to join them in their wealth gathering. As GC soon adopted the believe that everyone should start out weak and that only the strong may rule. Thus, everyone would need to work for their power. This mentality soon showed to work as GC grew in power rapidly. So much so that GC was the first group that dubbed themselves and clan in the belt. And wrote the guidelines on how to run a society all other clans followed after.

When the khan showed up and started uniting all factions GC was soon to become the most powerful clan there was. There is strong lead the battle against khan, and they almost made him pay for his hubris. The khan had to reevaluate his plans on how to beat GC several times. But in the end GC underestimated the khans' abilities and he beat GC in 1 fell swoop. GC leaders and folk should have been furious to this loss they suffered, but all they could think of is how proud they were of the khan who came from nothing and became the everything. GC would end up following the khan religiously, and when he died there was no clan that felt a greater grief that that they did. Grief that turned into anger.

With the khan dead GCs sought to keep his legacy alive and to keep the rapidly dividing clans to unify once more. They heard the rumors that the khan's death was due to an inner work. And they convinced all other clans that it was but justice to finally get back at the inner scum. thus, starting the belt war which GC charged into head long. There war power being felt by all other factions in the outer reaches. There combat power convincing the other factions even that they were allowed to build their own battleship. But this finally led to disaster with the end of the belt war killing many of GC's ships. Plus, the idea that khan killed by an inner was starting to be seen as a lie by some officers. This left GC into a full-blown internal war. And thus, after the war GC became a husk of what is once was. however still powerful it still is. Its leadership got intimately replaced by the new KU government. And thus, the way of greed and power above everything became against the will of the elders and veterans outdated ideas.
