  Capellan Confederation - Socialpolitical Structure   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Capellan government is like an ancient Terran troika (a sleigh pulled by three horses) but with each horse attempting to lead the others.
The Chancellor of the Capellan Confederation is chosen from among the six members of the Prefectorate upon the death of the current Chancellor.
Beyond the troika, the day-to-day operations of the Capellan Confederation are coordinated by various administrative departments known collectively as the Capellan Ministerial.

There was no Capellan military response to either incident; instead, the eight members of the rebellious High Council of Rollis disappeared almost simultaneously in 3033, and the self-appointed Supreme Commander Piet Fontana was killed by a laser shot in the back shortly after he proclaimed Larsha's independence.
I may no longer be a citizen of the Capellan Confederation, yet a part of me hesitates to reveal how terrible life in the Confederation has become and that the blame for it must fall on my sister, Chancellor Romano Liao.
Capellan Chancellor Sun-Tzu Liao learned of this deception through an agent planted in the NAIS the following year, and proposed to Thomas Marik a joint Marik-Liao invasion of the Sarna March that would simultaneously punish Steiner-Davion for his treachery and recapture former Marik and Liao worlds.

The first of a handful of homegrown designs built by the Capellan Confederation, the Corinthian Corvette was based loosely on the Terran Hegemony's Baron Class Destroyer, a few of which the Confederation purchased after the Reunification War.
When the Confederation began design work in on the new class of ships that would eventually become the Corinthian, careful attention was given to the Baron Class Destroyer.

Over two million Confederation citizens and soldiers died beating back the fanatics’ onslaught in Tian-tin, and a popular rumor says many of their ghosts now dwell on the palace grounds, where their memory is enshrined in the very structures.
To drive back the Blakists, the Capellans and the Canopians—their only “true” allies in that nightmarish war, according to Confederation history texts— unleashed the same firestorms as their enemies, demonstrating ruthlessness as never before, with every means at their disposal.
Over the years, this nationalism continued to drive the Capellan people, as it does today, where only the Canopians are regarded as true friends of the realm—and then only because their ruler is the sister of the great Sun-Tzu’s heir, Chancellor Daoshen (Centrella-) Liao.

 Capellan Confederation
During the 4th Succession War, the commonalities of Tikonov and Sarna were swallowed whole by the Federated Suns, and the Commonality of St. Ives seceded to become the St. Ives Compact.

Virtually unscathed by the Clan invasion, the Capellans instead suffered losses from their skirmishes with the St. Ives Compact, though even these were modest.

 The Case for Alliance with the Capellan Confederation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The Capellan Confederation is not a threat to the peace and security of the Taurian Concordat.
Additionally, the Chancellor of the Capellan Confederation is now the First Lord of the new Star League; thus, if we were to gain the Capellans' trust, and their Alliance, we would gain a respite against attack by a renewed Star League.
Finally, the Capellan Confederation is allied with the Free Worlds League, who can give us all of these same benefits in abundantly larger quantities; and peace with the Free Worlds League would mean peace for our friends and allies, the people of the Magistracy of Canopus.

Also, the overview for the Yu Huang in TR 3060 states that the LB 20-X AC used by the ‘Mech is likely (but not definitely) manufactured by Shengli Arms at its Victoria plant.

Indeed, after the fall of Forbidden City on Sian in a massive bombardment, the thought that they had lost the first leader in centuries to make the Confederation believe in itself drove its warriors to incredible acts of bravery and fierceness.
Over the years, this nationalism continued to drive the Capellan people, as it does today, where only the Canopians are regarded as true friends of the realm—and then only because their ruler is the sister of the great Sun-Tzu’s heir, Chancellor Daoshen (Centrella-)Liao.
