| The founders of the Borealis Republic would never have ventured into space had they realized how history would turn against them. Conceived as a return to notions of aristocracy and nobility, the nation has abandoned these ideas, leaving behind only ghostly shadows. Today, the Borealis Republic is a unique free society, comprised in equal parts of naturally conceived sentient beings and popular copies -clones. | The founders of the Borealis Republic would never have ventured into space had they realized how history would turn against them.

| During the Second Galactic War, the last outward vestiges of nobility fell away. Rather than Duke or Baron, today Borealins hold ranks based on academic standing. Most of the population still ranks as Student, with upper echelons gaining the titles of Lecturer, Associate Professor, Assistant Professor, Professor, and Dean. The Conclave of Lords ranks highest with its Philosophers and current Grand Philosopher, Justin Arimensis. | During the Second Galactic War, the last outward vestiges of nobility fell away.

| - | Compared to other [[Stellar Nations|stellar nations]], the Borealis Republic is weak. Its military is growing but remains small. On the other hand, the Borealins possess a multitude of small interstellar craft and an unusually high proportion of drivesats. Interstellar communication and the exchange of information hold a high priority. Borealin diplomats are canny, if long-winded. The Borealin economy is healthy internally, but weak in the interstellar marketplace. | + | Compared to other [[the stellar nations|stellar nations]], the Borealis Republic is weak.

Despite the great potential for academic pursuits, many Borealins are nonplussed by the idea of colonial life so far from home and opt for the Far Reach frontier instead. | In the Verge, the Borealin Silver Bell colony is no more, The nation mourned the loss briefly, then aggressively recolonized Its scientific research teams investigate sites of interest such as the Skyward Caverns of Atlas in the Tendril system.

| In this day and age, for a Borealin to establish himself as an authority figure on any given subject, it can be publish or perish. Obsessed with a new great discovery, this explorer will want to go to the farthest reaches of space and document whatever he can. Hopefully to discovery new anomalies, strange alien environments, and ideally make contact with a new sentient alien race. Anything that can spark a philosophical and ethical discussion back home would be considered a huge success for any Borealin. | In this day and age, for a Borealin to establish himself as an authority figure on any given subject, it can be publish or perish.
