> a) The OUDFN's budget barely stretches to having all those zillions
of patrol boats, there's not a lot of money for "Show the Flag" stuff.
The Background on the unofficial GZGpedia states that the majority of
the OU defence budget goes on the Navy, but it's a small nation that
claims more star systems than all other powers combined.
The OU's theory is "Well, we haven't technically been there, but then
again no one ever landed on a star anyway, and we can certainly *see*
that star from here...so we can claim it."
> So it's spread rather thin. It does, however, mean that any stellar
cartographer doesn't have to worry about who has claimed all those
useless M-class systems that don't have owners listed - it's the OU.
Whereas *useful* M-class are claimed by the Alarishi Empire. :-)
