Fiction:Ankoran Confederacy

"We came to Aoshtai to escape the persecution of our brothers in the Milky Way... We wanted independence - and we will fight for it if we must."

- Chancellor Kuuruan

The Ankoran Confederation is the group of governors and organisations that fled from the Milky Way Galaxy to the Aoshtai galaxy approximately seven thousand years ago via unknown means. Largely divorced from it's better known kin in the Xeoni Cluster, they are a highly scientific culture, contrasting the Ankoran Empire's faith-based society.

Noted as one of the few non-native species in the Aoshtai galaxy holding influence in galactic politics, they have rapidly expanded their territory and power-base since arriving, spreading across a politically isolated area of the galaxy to establish a significant production capability.
