Tarc domain
The Tarc domain, also known as the Tarc territories, was an area of space located in the Colonies.
Description
The Tarc domain consisted of about twenty systems.[2] It contained the arid planet Hjaff, the homeworld of the Tarc species. The Tarc were the only sentient species within it.[4]
The Tarc domain served as a large buffer zone between the isolationist Tarc and the other species. The boundary of their domain was formed by twelve systems, four of which contained military outposts.[4]
The Tarc domain was guarded by the Ivlacav Gourn, a navy with a policy of zero tolerance for intruders. The Tarc attacked anyone who dared to enter what they viewed as their "domain of sovereignty." During the Imperial Period, this policy led to a number of skirmishes against the Galactic Empire, when Imperial scouts tried to cross their borders.[4]
The Tarc were also forbidden from leaving their domain. Those who were caught trying were publicly executed as soon as possible, and no trial was required. Only top military officials and politicians had access to hyperdrive-equipped spacecrafts, which were used only in special circumstances.[4]
