The Kumauri Empire was a realm of several dozen star systems established by Vall Kumauri around 10,000 BBY, on what was then the rimward frontier of the Galactic Republic.

History

The Kumauri Empire was short-lived, quickly conquered by the Republic, but its legacy survived in a series of massive capital ships capable of planetary bombardment, known as the Kumauri Battleship. The last line in the series was the three kilometer long Cal-class battleship. The primary weapons of these warships were mass drivers that could launch asteroids at surface targets, and were only rendered obsolete by the development of effective planetary shields.[1]
