The Romulan Star Empire

Description: 
The Romulan Star Empire is a race of aggressive warriors. Naturally cunning, Romulans excel at intelligence, and maintain plentiful resources but lack well developed diplomatic abilities.
Biological Description:
The Romulans are offshoots of the Vulcan race and share the same characteristic pointed ears and pale skin, although Romulans have slightly pronounced cranial ridges on their forehead. The average Romulan is 1.8 meters in height and has an approximate mass of 80 kilograms. Romulans have limited telepathic abilities and possess above average strength. They prefer warm, temperate climates on a rocky oxygen-based worlds. The average Romulan lifespan is between 250-300 years.
Society Description:
The Romulan Star Empire is controlled by the Praetor and the Imperial Senate. The Tal'Shiar maintain the loyalty of the people to the Romulan government, often through violent methods. Romulans are proud and regard loyalty and honor as civil responsibilities, but are extremely paranoid of other races. Romulans are relatively free to pursue their desires within the Empire. Much of the production for the Romulans is provided by the conquered Remans and a few other races, who are treated as slaves by the general populace.
General History Description:
The Romulans left Vulcan over two thousand years ago when they rejected the philosopher Surak's teachings. After the Romulans left Vulcan, they settled on far away planet and conquered the nearby Reman civilization, forming the Romulan Star Empire. They expanded their civilization until they encountered Klingons and Humans on each of their frontiers leading to years of hostility and sometimes war. The Romulans often entered long periods of isolation before re-establishing contact with increased aggressiveness and new technologies. After a brief alliance with the Federation and Klingons during the Dominion War, the Romulans have quickly re-adopted their previous mentality and have remained behind their borders
