The Dergrad Empire Government The Dergrad races goverment is a dictatorship led by an Emporer. A group of 'advisors' serve under the Emporer and control aspects of Dergrad life: Military Civilian Control Resource Management Science Diplomacy This is in order of importance to the Dergrad people. The Emporer of course has the last say in decisions made by the Advisors. Laws and Justice Basic laws are if you defy the system, the Emporer or the Advisors you die. The majority of crimes on the Dergrad homeworld and their ships are punishable by death. The odd minor crime results in a punishment based on public embarrasment of the criminal and their family. Technology Technology wise the Dergrad are inferior to the Federation (although not necessarily to the DS Station). Technology is around 60 years behind and mostly geared towards military use. Non-military technology is around the same levels as SF was in the time of ST:TOS. Alien Relations The Dergrad are hostile toward all alien races. They have seized control of several races planets and won several wars against resistors. They do have a tolerance to Aliens but at a very low level.
