Introduction

Jarre system is one of the more important wormhole links between the Inner Sphere and the Perseus Arm. Careful political maneuvering has enabled it to retain independence and own culture even in the face of the threat of the Amalgamation.

Spaeth Posthuman Republic

Founded by the crew of original expedition linelayer from Relay005, SPR was created when Relay005-Orchid expedition ran into trouble in the middle of the Perseus Rift. After a major engineering catastrophe they managed to limp into nearby system where they built up local infrastructure to enable the opening of the wormhole mouth they carried.

Relay005 and its corporate sponsors weren't too happy about the event, but accepted the mishap, helped to capture another wormhole mouth pair and sent the same linelayer to Orchid where it arrived without further trouble later.

Instead of aligning itself with Relay005 and it's sponsors, SPR managed to retain it's independence via deft political maneuvering, skillful countermemetics and a certain lack of Inner Sphere interest.

Daskren Baseline Protectorate

Daskren was created as a model of (reasonably) enlightened baseline society by SPR from historical baseline societal models. The goal was a baseline-operable humane democratic republic with minimal hyperturing intervention and contamination. By and large this experiment was successful and even today remains an example that baselines can manage their own societies without hyperturings. To a degree, at least. Since any baseline government would be easy prey for any hyperturing memetic warfare or perversion, SPR limits beings above first toposophy inside the DBP.

Even today SPR considers DBP with fond appreciation and any calls to remove the 'inefficient and immoral' local baseline government have very low popularity. There is constant emigration to Spaeth from DBP by those willing to embrace posthumanity and (very) minor immigration from Spaeth to Daskren by Abdicators.
