Someone asked me to say more about my subsector-cum-anarchy.
Well, its name is "the Talmegiian Confederation". 36 world
systems are in the confederation (they used to have 37, but
the Imperium took one {another story}). One system, Talmegiia,
is formally and vehemently NOT a member of the confederation.
Consequently, all important matters for the confederation get
settled here.
following is the brief write-up I gave this world when I generated
the subsector.
Talmegiia Location D3 (local co-ordinates)
C 446400 (13) Trav's *
{brief explanation: when I did this subsector, I did not use hex
notation for anything. Thus, the tech level of (13). I also
created a Traveller's Aid Society rating for the world's overall
hospitality and facilities (like the AAA does). Talmegiia got
one star.}
Talmegiia has a long history of isolationist neutrality. Consequently,
Tal volunteered to be the negotiating site for the creation of the
confederation (it still refuses to become a member). At one point
in the proceedings, a Churichian ambassador threatened mayhem on
the delegate from Omigosh for proposing the words "no central authority"
and "no taxes" be included in the preamble of the charter. Rather
than let the right to the opinion of the delegate be violated, Tal
immediately closed the convention for the day. A spectator loaned the
two ambassadors swords.
After the fight, Churich left the conference and vowed revenge on
Talmegiia and Omigosh. (Tal's doctors fixed up both parties.
Churich's ambassador thus lost face, etc.)

A couple of notes, if you're still reading.
Omigosh and Churich are neighboring worlds that have been at war
off and on for hundreds of years. The development of the confederation
gave Churich the reasoning it wanted to petition BOTH the Zhodani
and the Imperium for membership. This caused many wonderful hours
at the gaming table.
Eventually, the Imperium got Churich (and then declared it an
Amber Zone for "unfriendly activites").
