History
The History of the Pride regarding outside forces is a long period of isolationism punctuated by either trade or violence. The first 1200 years of Cizerack interplanetary travel was done without interference from the Old Republic. About 350 years before the Battle of Yavin, the Old Republic initiated contact with the Pride. In the initial phases of first contact, something went wrong, and a brief, extremely violent war broke out. Officially known as the Battle of Syragor, it claimed roughly a billion casualties, mostly Cizerack, but a large portion of which were outer rim settlers from the Republic, as well as various defense forces, and even Jedi.
After this violent conflagration, both sides remained largely aloof of each other, preferring to stay out of each other's way. When the Old Republic became the Empire, the Emperor sought out a mercantile existence with the Pride, whose trade network on the Outer Rim was far more developed than his own. The Pride provided a link between Palpatine's Empire, and the far flung riches of the outer expanse. However, it wasn't really a benevolent arrangement, as the Empire fixed prices at gunpoint. For decades, the Pride could do nothing to affect this deal.
When the Rebellion started, the reigning Pride Mother at the time shrewdly chose to arm Rebel forces clandestinely. The Cizerack trade network operated in zones of influence consistently held by the Rebellion, which made supplying their cause quite easy. The Pride Mother generously extended a line of credit, hoping to exact a certain amount of influence on the emerging faction, who would have large debts by the time war was over.
The shrewd business politics of the Cizerack Pride have served to enrich the felinoid nation in the years since the Battle of Yavin. Carshoulis Prime, its coffers glutted with Republic and Imperial trade credits, has grown quickly, as have its satellite planets within the Carshoulis Cluster. Carshoulis Prime is one of the major trade centers of the Galaxy, behind only Coruscant and Corellia in its influence.
Conflicts still exist, however. Notably, a treaty squabble between the Cizerack and the Empire continues to flare up into tension. One of the concessions of the Treaty of Syragor was that the Old Republic would recognize all planets within the Carshoulis Cluster as the Pride's territory. One problem was the fifth planet of the Yendi system, called Calan. The planet was aligned in such a way that its orbit bisected the boundary of the Carshoulis Cluster, thus making it difficult to say whether it lay inside or outside of Cizerack dominion. The Cizerack have hotly contested Republic claims to the planet, and there is a great sense of unease related to Calan's]] fate.
