	Lacking any sulfur and tar within the region to exploit, the Eternal Republic has instead sought to invest their holdings in mineral resource extraction and refining; as well as agriculture. This has resulted in a rather basic way of life within its society, without any consistent method of importing or even producing luxuries available in the Union or the Consortium. There exist no branches of megacorporations, nor are there any native corporations present, instead the entirety of the resources available for distribution (whether it be exporting or disseminating them to the Eternal Republic’s population) are controlled by the Ecclesiarchs and those appointed by them to maintain the nation’s economy. It is largely rural, compared to its other counterparts present on the planet. The Eternal Republic utilises the ~~Epsilonian~~ Vine as its main currency and only the ~~Epsilonian~~ Vine. Though there have been attempts to introduce the Sqiip and the Biesel Standard Credit, the Ecclesiarchs have denied and nipped proposals in the bud before they gain any traction within its borders, despite it being significantly weaker than most of the currencies present within the Orion Spur.

	~~The planet’s winter solstice generally occurs sometime around August 27th – sometimes fluctuating~~, ~~but~~ the ~~Eternal Republic has chosen a determined date~~ to ~~recognise~~ the time of vulnerability for Dionae; ~~where the day grows short,~~ and the ~~night grows long~~. Preparation for the day comes weeks in advance to ensure that Dionae do not fall prey to the ~~lesser quantity of~~ radiation ~~they will experience~~ during ~~the planet’s winter season~~.		For three days a year, the Dancing Stars and Sparring Giants align to occlude the Opulence neutron star from Hieroaetheria’ view. This is a time of vulnerability for Dionae, though also a reprieve for non-Dionae inhabitants; ambient radiation levels drop significantly and temperatures on the planet cool slightly. Preparation for the day comes weeks in advance to ensure that Dionae do not fall prey to the decreased radiation and luminosity during these few days.

	The Eternal Republic of the Ekane does not recognise any other language besides Rootsong within its borders. It serves as a conduit for divine connection to the Eternal, as claimed by the Ecclesiarchs, which only further perpetuates the theocratic ideology held within the Eternal Republic. The written form of Rootsong often adorns religious texts, architectural elements, and sacred artefacts. Inscriptions of these glyphs carry divine significance, connecting the written word with the spiritual essence of the Eternal. Non-Dionae who pass through the Eternal Republic often must utilize translators, either Dionae capable of speaking their language or a machine able to translate the language. This further divides Dionae from non-Dionae within the Eternal Republic – a mechanism in which it serves as a “divine barrier” that emphasizes the notion that Dionae are a spiritually elevated race. This has resulted in the stagnation of diplomatic agreements with other factions in the Orion Spur, besides the [[Nralakk Federation]], the [[Xrim\|Covenant of Xrim]] and obviously the other nations present on [[~~Epsilon Ursae Minoris~~]].

	Leaving the Eternal Republic of the Ekane is a challenging endeavour due to the stringent control exercised by the Ecclesiarchs, the ruling religious authorities. The theocratic regime places significant restrictions on emigration to maintain ideological purity and prevent the spread of dissent beyond its borders. However, determined Dionae may employ various methods to escape the confines of the autocratic theocracy. Dionae may opt for remote and less patrolled routes, navigating through the wilderness areas of ~~Epsilon Ursae Minoris~~ to avoid established checkpoints and surveillance. This method demands resilience and survival skills to traverse challenging terrains. Leveraging the pretext of religious pilgrimages, Dionae may gain permission to leave temporarily. Once outside the borders, they can seek refuge in neighbouring factions, utilizing the guise of spiritual journeys to avoid suspicion. The only official way to leave is to request such from the Ecclesiarchs; which grant such requests infrequently, but not rarely. One must prove they will uphold the principles of the Eternal Republic, and maintain loyalty to the Ecclesiarchs or face the Knights of the Eternal. Despite these methods, leaving the Eternal Republic remains perilous, as the Ecclesiarchs are vigilant in monitoring and suppressing any attempts at defection. The consequences of being caught attempting to leave can range from severe punishments to public executions, reinforcing the Ecclesiarchs' determination to maintain control over the populace and uphold the theocratic order.

Though Dionae from the Eternal Republic of the Ekane would not dare insult Ecclesiarch Sanctified Seeker of Holy Communion, they are known to be deceptive and manipulative to get their way, exploiting the concept of their relationship with the Eternal for personal gain, and to sow discord across the Eternal Republic to maintain their religious authority. They do not keep their disdain for non-Dionae a secret either, having interacted with both Skrell and Humans present on ~~Epsilon Ursae Minoris~~, who often report back the palpable hatred the Ecclesiarch displays. It is suspected the Ecclesiarch has a Tyrannical Tune Mind.		*'''Ecclesiarch Sanctified Seeker of Holy Communion''' is a rather old Dionae, having been grown two centuries before the founding of the Eternal Republic of the Ekane, in 2143 CE.

	The ~~first signs~~ of ~~civilization within~~ the Ekane ~~region have been dated back to 1200 BCE – thanks to~~ a ~~combination~~ of ~~efforts from both~~ Dionae and ~~[[Skrell]] archaeologists~~, ~~having stumbled on several petrified corpses of~~ Dionae~~; which upon further analysis~~ had ~~travelled from~~ the ~~Retheus River Basin. Though there exist signs~~ of ~~sickness amongst~~ the ~~petrified corpses~~, ~~it has not been proven as~~ to ~~what caused such – many attribute it~~ to ~~an extended period within~~ the ~~darkness without rations~~, ~~whilst others believe it to be~~ a ~~now extinct disease. Sometime between 1200 BCE and 1400 CE~~ the ~~Ekane had become dominated by~~ Dionae, ~~in which ossified biomass that acted as shelters~~ were ~~uncovered that depicted conglomerates that were gigantic in size, but had seemingly collapsed~~. ~~However, with~~ the ~~founding~~ of the Eternal ~~Republic of the Ekane, only Dionae archaeologists sponsored by the Ecclesiarchs have been given authorisation to continue their studies, shutting out non-Dionae~~.		The history of the Eternal Republic of the Ekane began with the Abandonment of 221 CE, when a significant portion of the Dionae within Mede, and more notably Epigenia, migrated due to doctrinal differences. Immediately following this was The Long March: Every Dionae that had left joined together, and moved as a unified body to a new place for colonization.

For a period, they were largely never truly reunited again – despite attempts by the Dominion. It wasn’t until the touchdown of the Eternal that unity was once again a possibility.

	~~The origin of~~ the ~~Eternal Republic~~ of ~~the~~ Ekane ~~is believed to have begun during the 1500s CE – in which there was~~ a ~~brief time~~ of ~~domination by~~ a ~~particular conglomerate~~ of ~~Dionae~~, ~~referred to as the Dominion in uncovered songs stones uncovered by archaeologists following the discovery of~~ the ~~petrified Dionae corpses~~. ~~The Dominion subjugated the weaker conglomerates through~~ a ~~combination~~ of ~~methods – in particular raiding~~ their ~~supplies,~~ and ~~attacking isolated Gestalts from the conglomerates, as per stories carried down by Penumbras that are still capable of producing something resembling speech~~. ~~Regardless, the Dominion was able to reign supreme within the region until 2315 CE – when first contact with the [[Skrell]] had been initiated by the Affiliation, now known as the [[~~The Consortium\|Consortium]]. With the influx of both Dionae and non-Dionae alike from the interstellar stage, it was bound that their ideals would eventually weed their way into the Dominion’s carefully orchestrated subjugation of the lesser conglomerates. Rapidly, the Eternal took root within the Dominion. With more and more persuaded to its teachings, the Dominion sought ~~a change, a transformation, but still desired~~ to ~~maintain their control of the~~ region, ~~thereby founding~~ the ~~Eternal Republic~~ of ~~the Ekane~~, ~~forty years after first contact. Shifting from a despotic hegemony to an autocratic theocracy~~, ~~conglomerates that had been subjugated found themselves now under~~ the ~~banner~~ of ~~a unifying religious authority – with the aim~~ to ~~uplift Dionae,~~ and ~~preserve their civilization against the interference of non-Dionae brought forth from the stars~~.		Since then, the region of Ekane had remained a backwater of competing clusters, each warring over a different conception of unity, while occasionally trading with the outside.

In 2400 CE the Ekane had been, by this point dominated, by the Dominion. Despite a handful of smaller nation-states, they entirety of the region was still several decades behind in development. It was here that [[the Eternal]] had been introduced, touching the minds of those present within the Ekane, promising them unity and salvation. To become whole with a body far greater and far beyond the planet. The Eternal exploded across the Ekane in fervent rapture, and a mere five years later, they were a unified and rapidly modernizing force on the continent. Missionaries sprawled out from its borders, preaching news and the mandate of something greater. The Eternal Republic of the Ekane entered into the Commonwealth in 2445 CE as an equal, though some interpreted this as [[the Consortium]]'s means of securing negotiations with the Eternal Republic before something drastic were to happen.
