Mioran-Terran Technological Embargo

The Grand Imperium and Democratic Republic of the Straits of Miora maintain their technological supremacy through an technological embargo; antimatter technology is banned amongst other nations: weaponry, power and propulsion.

Other nations are forced to use other methods to power and propel their vessels.

The idiots then had all their tech stolen because they didn't realize the Grey Trade Standards Agreement allowed the Grey Area to literally just walk into their factories and labs and take their data.
