Laurin Oghr Kingdom

Laurin Oghr Kingdom‏‎

The smallest of the Oghr Kingdoms. It was part of the Oghr Empire and suffered the most during the rebellion period that shattered the Empire, as it was the weakest part.

The Laurin house of Kings always tried to stay out of the power struggles but was used as a pawn many times. It only survives as the stronger kingdoms are to busy fighting and squabbling among each other. That and the fact that the Kathk Oghr became Union in 4323 and became a buffer zone making it harder for the others to harass the Laurin.

Like the rest of the Oghr Kingdoms the Laurin dislike the Union mostly due to envy.

The Kathk Oghr borders are not as tightly guarded as Main Union Space and there is some trade and cultural interaction with the other Oghr kingdoms.

The Laurin Oghr Kingdom stretches over five planetary systems and 5 planets.: Main world and four colonies. Unlike Union expansion they only utilize the suitable worlds and leave the in hospitable planets alone.

 
 * Main World : Laurr – Garden World – Throne world seat of the Laurin King
 * Colony :Lirrar – Marginal Garden World
 * Colony: Lurr Damo – Garden World – Oldest Laurin Colony
 * Colony: Lurr Perro – Garden World – Industrial World
 * Colony: Hurr Laurr– Marginal Garden world. Youngest Colony

There are approximately 23-25 Billion Laurin Oghr. Due to the lack of Instant communication and a very marginal space fleet of their own, contact to their own worlds is limited to Tachyon Radio. The Kingdom is considered unstable and analysts believe that Hurr Laurr will be the first world claiming independence from the Throne World.

The Kingdom is poor on resources and has a weak space fleet (Tech Level 6+) of perhaps 50 -60 Capital ships ( of Kartanian manufacture) The Laurin have no ship yards or designs of their own.

Their main source of income is to hire out parts of their population as Domestics.

These Domestics are to send part of their earnings to the Crown.

Other exports include mined minerals and raw metals.

Many industrial items are imported.

Only the Laurins at Hurr Laurr seem do do better. They maintain steady trade with Kaliti System (Kathk Oghr System) but they are opposed to send 2/3rds of their profit to Lirrar and the tax revenue has ebbed to a trickle.

The Main currency is Iridium pressed into rectangular sheets and sealed in plastic. These sheets are called Lauries all over the sector.

The current King Lurri, the XI is considered weak and unwilling to make important decisions. Corruption is wide spread at court and hampers governing further.
