- Government Stability: High - The Home Sector benefits from stable governance, largely due to Dosuun’s established infrastructure and the Commonwealth’s careful consolidation of power. The sector's political environment fosters unity across its planets, and the people are generally law-abiding, especially in core cities like Avalonia, Gawain, and Prosperia. The Commonwealth employs a strong local police force and effective military presence, ensuring peace is maintained both in high-density urban areas and in more rural locales. Travelers to the sector can feel secure, as tourism is encouraged, especially on Mephout and Seoul. Although some isolated criminal factions occasionally arise, they are swiftly addressed by Commonwealth forces.
- Wealth: The sector is affluent due to a combination of high-value exports, including technology, specialized crystals, and agricultural products. Dosuun, the capital planet, is particularly wealthy, hosting corporate headquarters, financial hubs, and government institutions that drive economic growth. Seoul’s tech industries and Mephout’s industrial production ensure a steady flow of revenue, while Éire’s agricultural exports bring in significant trade from across the Commonwealth. The sector’s affluence is reinforced by its mining activities on the Osmanli asteroid belt and luxury tourism on Crytal Nest.
- Freedom & Oppression: The Home Sector has a balanced approach to freedom and regulation. The Commonwealth maintains a centralized governance model, enforcing order and security through visible yet relatively non-intrusive authority. While living in the Home Sector enjoy many personal freedoms, they are also subject to surveillance and regulations designed to maintain stability and support Commonwealth interests. Media and personal expression are permitted, but sedition and outspoken criticism of the Commonwealth’s government may be met with quiet, controlled consequences. More spiritual worlds such as Needan which serves as a cultural and religious hub, hosts a slightly more relaxed atmosphere, fostering open intellectual and spiritual discourse.

Due to the sector’s strategic and administrative importance, its military presence is unparalleled, with constant reinforcements, high-tech defenses, and multiple branches of Commonwealth forces stationed here.
- Military Force Name: Imperial Commonwealth Armed Forces
- Military Force: Known as the ICAF, the forces include specialized branches dedicated to ground defense, naval operations, air superiority, and reconnaissance. Local planetaryl units bear identifiers based on their location (e.g., Dosuun Guard, Mephout Corps), while elite groups include the Commonwealth Imperial Guard and the Home Fleet stationed across the sector’s most vital planets.
The Home Sector is a primary military hub, housing thousands of active troops, advanced starfighter squadrons, and a significant fleet presence across strategic locations. The sector hosts both Commonwealth-wide training centers and recruitment hubs, with a substantial number of forces originating from Dosuun, Mephout, and Éire. Dosuun’s capital, Avalonia, is the nerve center for command operations, while Mephout provides additional tactical and logistics support. - Military Role: The military’s role within the Home Sector is twofold: to ensure the security and stability of the Commonwealth’s capital planets and to maintain rapid-response capabilities for potential threats both internal and external. The military enforces law and order alongside local constabularies, coordinates major defensive initiatives, and undertakes intelligence and reconnaissance missions to preserve sector-wide security. Recruitment is high within the Home Sector, supported by advanced academies and training grounds.

The Home Sector of the Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun has a rich and complex history, beginning as a coalition of planets under the First Order during the late 7th century ABY. By the mid to late 8th century, these worlds became known as the Home Sector, serving as the Commonwealth's core and anchor.
Throughout its history, the sector has experienced significant political and social changes. The transition from First Order governance to the establishment of the Commonwealth brought stability and unity, fostering cooperation among its diverse worlds. However, the sector has also faced internal conflicts, including minor insurrections driven by local grievances, particularly in the more industrialized planets like Seoul and Mephout.
Each world has contributed to the collective identity of the Home Sector. Dosuun stands as the political heart, while Seoul thrives with its technological advancements. Mephout offers ancient wisdom and cultural heritage, and Alpinn’s innovative spirit pushes for progress. The agricultural richness of Dosuun and Seoul supports the sector’s economy, making it a bustling hub for trade and innovation.
For citizens from all walks of life, the Home Sector is a dynamic environment. While some areas benefit from prosperity and technological growth, others may feel the weight of bureaucratic policies or local tensions. The contrast between the opulence of metropolitan centers and the serene landscapes of rural areas creates a multifaceted society. Visitors and inhabitants alike can expect a vibrant blend of culture, technology, and community, with an underlying spirit of resilience and adaptability that has defined the Home Sector throughout its history.
