Description:

One Nation Under Jou, also known as Kingdom of Morobe and Vorsia Companion, is a sovereign territory encompassing the Morobe system and a part of the Vorsia system, unified by a federal government under the Vorsian Crown. It is a socio-political union which shares and celebrates the values of one ruler, citizen rights, rule of law, common tongue, and education in social progress. All planets across the nation work together to provide education, healthcare, quality of life, personal safety and housing to all its citizens to promote prosperity and unity.

History

The Morobe system was colonised in mid-Year 14 by an independent group of military professionals in a coalition with Damorian Manufacturing Corporation. The group that discovered the system created Sienar Fleet Systems a few weeks later to secure their claim over the planets and to develop a ship manufacturing business to operate from Morobe. This cemented the colonisation of Morobe a success and allowed the owners to not only increase their profit margins, but to raise the standard of living for the colonists.

In early Year 16 the security of the system was consolidated under Permanent Solutions, a mercenary corporation created to oversee Morobe’s defences and to provide protection services to the galaxy. In the following year, Sienar Fleet Systems was later rebranded to S.W.A.T. Industries, shifting focus from ship production to equipment and weapon manufacture. After over four years of successful independent operations the need to grow the system on a larger scale became clear and in late-Year 18 Permanent Solutions negotiated a mutually beneficial merger with the Tion Hegemony.

The corporation was assimilated into Tion’s military and became the 3rd Fleet, or better known as Tion Defence Division to the wider galaxy. The vast resources and expertise of Tion’s government under leadership of Lady Hegemon Stephanie Barefoot enabled the system’s population to grow from millions into billions and prosper. During this period the Morobe system retained its relative independence by terms of the original negotiations. This partnership lasted for several years.

The inception of the One Nation began during Year 21 after Lady Hegemon announced to Tion’s High Council her intention to step down from her role as the Head of State. Many of the original leaders of the late Permanent Solutions were also aiming to retire from their roles in Tion and questions arose about what shall become of the Morobe system, which was separated from the rest of Tion space by almost half the galaxy. Those responsible for the initial colonisation of the system felt that Morobe was ready to be its own sovereign territory. It was decided the burden of governmental leadership would fall to Countess Lilith Delcroix, the sovereign of an independent long-standing state of Vorsia Companion since Year 11.

One Nation Under Jou declated its sovereignty in Year 21 on Day 308. The nation’s federal monarchy was created on the basis that the sovereign, acting according to the laws of the nation, is the highest power under Jou in the nation, and has supreme authority over all persons in all causes, as well ecclesiastical as civil. From the federal government to the smallest local authority, all work in the sovereign’s name towards better worlds.

Church of Jou

During Year 18, Vorsia Companion saw the rise of Vorsian Orthodoxy; also known as the Church of Jou, which became an integral part of society. The primary purpose of the Church is to offer support to the people of One Nation. The teachings are meant to inspire shared values, to provide guidance to those that need it, to inspire charity and to offer common ground. As such the Church has more cultural than spiritual influence on the populace. Vorsian Orthodoxy is a deistic religion founded on historic events and rational thought. Vigo Amaranalah Jou, the central figure of the faith, is revered as an extraordinary woman but is not attributed any divine powers to interfere in people’s lives or perform miracles. Prayers to Vigo Jou are symbolic affirmation of faith and to seek comfort.
