The Universal Supersystem



The Official Universal Superempire House Councils are four privileged inner-universal elite superempires that each politically maintain control and jurisdiction over the majority of the universe. The 4 Great Houses are House Farwyn, House Nerenil, House Varen, and House Melendrach. The universe is mostly based on a complex social system that runs off an elite socioeconomic hierarchy, the Great House empires, incorporating trade and status through major empires and governments, which control most of the universe and all of its respective quadrants.

Three of the four Great Houses are ran off a dynastic clan system, while House Varen is more democratic. Each superempire is very ancient and goes back hundreds of thousands of years. Even though they are a major universal force and influence, the superempires are not very prominent or well-known to most of the universal commonwealth (in fact some have never heard of them at all). This is meant, and for good reasons, though they do maintain elite control. Most large empires have connections with the Houses.

Background and History
TBA

Though there are hundreds of billions of planets in the universe, there are only a few million powerful empires that jurisdict most of it, as most of the planets are actually relatively low in economic status or population. While there are a few million empires, there are even fewer (in the thousands) elite superempires that control those indirectly, known as the Universal Great Houses.

Membership
One can become a personal member of any single House Council. However, generally, it is only highly respected Empire leaders or important universal political figures that can accept these honors. Members number in the thousands, mostly nobleman and elites. Emperor Kuzon Jr. of the Great Empire is an honorary member of House Farwyn.
