Kusari or the Kusari Empire (チェーン帝国 Kusari Enpaia) is the title of one of the four original houses in Sirius. The Kusari is a small yet expansive house, with significant forces holding the four core systems (New Tokyo, Kyushu, Shikoku, Honshu) and claims and patrols to many other lesser systems surrounding them. Kusari influence stretches from the distant Tau-31 system to Sigma-19, effectively occupying the entirety of the known lower northern Sirius sector. Kusari is currently engaged in a war with Bretonia over the sovereignty of the Tau-31 system.
History
Main article: History of Kusari
Controlled and contested space
Kusari lays claim to as many as ten star systems (New Tokyo, Kyushu, Shikoku, Honshu, Hokkaido, Tohoku, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Tau-29 and Tau-31). Out of these, four hold colonised planets: New Tokyo, Kyushu, Honshu and Shikoku.
Despite the relative proximity to the Sigma systems, Kusari military do not operate in the area, giving leeway to the fiercely independent Gas Miners Guild, on which the supplies of H-Fuel to Kusari rely.
Territorial claims
The Tau-23 and Tau-31 systems are considered as under the protection of Kusari since 812 A.S. This resulted in a state of war with the Kingdom of Bretonia. Currently the Kusari Naval Forces are in near total control of both Tau systems, with planet Harris being the last Bretonian controlled base left.
Government and politics
Kusari is a constitutional monarchy led by an Emperor as the monarch and head of state, and a house of representatives from all the populated planets with control over the government. The Naval Forces have formal control over unpopulated systems, aside from the bases present in those systems.
