Gorf People's Republic

The Gorf People's Republic, officially the United People's Republic of Great Gorf and the Colonies, but colloquially known as the People's Republic or simply the Gorf Republic, is the political entity that governs the Gorf species and a galactic Great Power.

The People's Republic is a democratic and egalitarian state with a xenophilic philosophy. It is also home to the largest population of Sibulan outside of the Qu'Vab United Battle Clans.

The People's Republic is the smallest of the galactic Great Powers in terms of population, territory volume, controlled habitable planets, and deployed navy. The reasons for its status are its relatively advanced technology, and its historically good relations with the Volkar Stellar Imperium. This relationship left the People's Republic as the only external power with trading rights within the Imperium, and left its territory mostly unscathed through numerous major galactic conflicts.

In 2316, an Emorian vessel arrived in the People's Republic, purporting to be from another galaxy. Since that time, the People's Republic has cultivated close relations with the Emori and have repeatedly attempted to convince the Emori to share technology and stellar-cartographic data with them, so far unsuccessfully. In 2327, the Emori were permitted to build a permanent outpost in People's Republic territory.

Following the Volkar Revolution in 2328, the Gorf removed themselves from Volkar affairs until 2331, when the People's Republic began providing direct support for the Commonwealth of Kavalk and the Commonwealth of Lishval. This support increased through the Volkar Revolutionary Wars before culminating the People's Republic jointly invaded the remnant Volkar Stellar Imperium alongside the Commonwealths in 2340.

Since its foundation in 2341, the People's Republic has been a close ally to the Volkar Stellar Commonwealth. During the Second Volkar Civil War, the People's Republic fought jointly against the Stellar Imperium of Julau and the Alliance of Pol Utesk.
