History
Each country has adapted them differently has poker has four suits but the number of Successor Houses and minor Periphery countries is much more bigger.
Lyran Alliance version
For the Lyran Commonwealth the four suits have been transformed to Fists, Sunbursts, Dragons, and Eagles - the symbols of Houses Steiner, Davion, Kurita, and Marik. House Liao - the weakest of the Successor States - did not rate a suit, while the figures have been changed so: Jack is converted to Mech, Queen is converted to Duke and King is converted to Archon.[1]
Other Major Successor states versions
Though it is not know how the other Houses arrange their cards, it can be at least inherited that at least House Liao has eliminated another of the Successor States to put them as one of the suits.[citation needed]
Periphery Realms
It is not known how the cards in Periphery realms are organized, but it is quite possible they use only Periphery realms: the (Taurian Concordat, the Magistracy of Canopus, the Outworlds Alliance and either the Marian Hegemony or the Circinus Federation.[citation needed]
