Diflaecan Empire
In the past, the Diflaecan Empire was once a pillar of military might with the cutting edge in technology, but now is better known for commerce and tourism. They are allied directly with the Atlantians, but are somewhat tense with the Stelanians, and are hostile toward the Dogenphlo. No war is currently broken out between the Diflaecans and the Dogenphlo, however, due to past interference by the Stelanians, and a ceasefire is in place. Despite this, Diflaeca trades freely with many nations, and enjoys a stable economy.
The Diflaecan Empire spans a few worlds, notably Diflaeca I (also known as Diflaeca Prime) and Diflaeca II, though each planet is self-governing. Diflaeca Prime is a watery world that is a center of trade and entertainment, featuring many resorts, and vacation locations. Diflaeca I is governed by a constitutional monarchy, with the ruling family being lead by the oldest member alive at that time. Diflaeca employs a parliamentary system in which the monarch has strictly ceremonial duties with reserve powers. There is a prime minister who is the head of government and exercises effective political power, and is elected every six years, or two diflaecan cycles. Diflaeca II on the other hand, has no central government, instead being ruled by a series of crime families and organizations which battle constantly for power.
Culture-wise, diflaecans are matriarchal, and tend to focus on appearances. Diflaecan culture is largely social, heavily influenced by mass media, with what's popular permeating the everyday lives of the society. Diflaecan popular culture is often viewed as being trivial and dumbed-down in order to find acceptance throughout the mainstream. As a result, it comes under heavy criticism from various other factions which deem it superficial, consumerist, sensationalist, and corrupted. This, however, doesn't keep Diflaecan Prime from being a favorite vacation spot, and as such, the planet flourishes under the attention. Diflaeca II is much less sensational, however, with violence and survival being the only form of culture widely present.
The diflaecan species is somewhat fragile, with a light bone structure and a high metabolism, both needed for flight. While superficially they are humanoid, their internal anatomy differs greatly, with five hearts, and a high content of chlorophyll, making their blood a vibrant green. They differ greatly from most other races with both plant and animal qualities, though few think them to be anything like plants in behavior. Coloration tends toward pale greens and blues, though shades of gold in hair and eyes are not uncommon.
