Auterium

Auterium is an Independent Faction within the Core-Worlds of Imperial Space. They are based on planet Auteria-7, in the Auteria system. They are known for their war-centered life, ruined planets, and xenophobic laws. Although while not at war with any major powers, their laws for traveling anywhere near their sectors almost always come off as hostile.

They defected immediately after the Empire-Federation War ended, taking most of the surplus weaponry and colonization tools of the Old Empire. They have adopted communism as a government, and emulate the Soviet Union in their designs and architecture.
