−	The poorest nations of [[twenty-second century]] [[Terra]] got the worst picks during the settlement of the [[Inner Sphere]]. The Axumite Providence was established on 11 October [[2245]] by colonists fleeing from the [[Outer Reaches Rebellion]]. The Uhuru Settlement Group was composed of settlers from [[twenty-first century]] the Northeast Africa countries of Sudan, Eritrea, Somalia, Libya, and Ethiopia. When the [[Terran Alliance]] forces massacred 10,000 protestors on [[Summit]], Uhuru Settlement Group Gamma, consisting of some 150,000 colonists, chose to flee anti-spinward. They spent over a year traveling beyond the borders of the nascent [[Circinus Federation]]. They began colonization efforts on [[Thala]] in [[2239]]. Expansion progressed slowly until a disaster during the colonization of [[Illizi]] in [[2701]], which destroyed one of the Providence's three remaining [[JumpShip]]s. In [[2890]], Councilman [[Ahmad Al-Hasar]] led a political movement to end isolation and reestablish contact with the Inner Sphere.

The nearest system is located 1,000 light years [[anti-spinward]] of [[Terra]], located at the trailing edge of Orion's Bow. Their closest 'neighbors' are the [[Union of Samoyedic Colonies]] and the [[Hanseatic League]], although the Axumite Providence is remote from both and has no contact with other civilizations.<ref name=ISP3p51-52>''Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3'', pp. 51–52: "Axumite Providence"</ref> ==History== The poorest nations of [[twenty-second century]] [[Terra]] got the worst picks during the settlement of the [[Inner Sphere]].

Dominantly Sunni Islamic, and speaking a North African dialect of Arabic, the Axumite Providence is largely at [[twentieth century]] levels of industrial technology, although manufacturing does allow for industrial fusion power plants. A traditional Islamic focus on learning has resulted in extensive programs of free education. The result is one of the highest literacy rates of any Periphery state, and a highly developed academic and cultural output. Although one world, Ksabi, is an outright theocracy, the Axumite Providence is ruled by a twelve-person council of elders with one representative from each world, and a second from the capital.<ref name=ISP3p51-52/> ==Military== At the time of Interstellar Expeditions' contact with the Axumite Providence, the Providence has no military, only an interplanetary police force.<ref name=ISP3p51-52/> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3 ]]'' [[Category:Nation States]]
