The Lyran Star Empire was a matriarchal society controlled by the Lyrans, with a distinctly feudal government consisting of 21 counties, each ruled by a count. Four of the 21 counties were "duchies" each ruled by a duke, who in turn governed four of the remaining counties in addition to the duchy. The 21st county was ruled by the King–Emperor.
Each county controlled and paid the cost of maintaining a portion of the fleet. Each station along the border was controlled by the local county, and the duchies controlled the starbases. There was a good deal of conflict within the Lyran Empire, which kept the race as a whole from dominating a much larger area of the galaxy.
Lyran ships were fast and bristling with weapons, but were generally underpowered. Lyrans relied heavily on the use of disruptors for their medium range weapons, as well as a powerful but short range weapon called an Expanding Sphere Generator, which was used as both a defensive weapon, sweeping away enemy missiles and fighters, and as an offensive weapon, allowing the Lyran ship to ram its target.[1]
