Rulers of Coromodir[edit]
When the Taurian Concordat withdrew from the Coromodir system, Wiremu Arano became the new Governor and, with the support of House Espinosa, declared Coromodir independent.[2]
Aurigan Trade Partnership[edit]
In 2870, House Arano and House Espinosa sent diplomatic missions to the noble families of Guldra, Smithon, Itrom, and Tyrlon, proposing mutual defense and trade in the wake of rising piracy and lawlessness in the region. All agreed, and the Aurigan Trade Partnership was born. Wiremu Arano was the largest financial contributor, and thus was made executive of the new Trade Council.[2]
High Lady/Lord[edit]
At the start of the thirtieth century, Wiremu's daughter Keona Arano saw that the larger states were not going to return and reclaim their colonies as had originally been thought. She proposed the Aurigan Trade Partnership become an independent nation-state, the Aurigan Coalition. In 2910, she became High Lady of the new nation.[2] By tradition, House Arano is not part of the Founding Council, though the High Lord or Lady has authority to call meetings of that group and serves as chairperson.[3]
