Despotism

Despotic rule under the pirates is far less common than foreigners realize. Unquestioned authority centralized in one person has never sat well with the majority of Orion people. Even the Caju have dualistic rule and the input of those with greater powers of Xo-I and Vodazee. Most rulerships of despotism are found in the most extreme Orion pirate gangs, often because they have gone through a succession crisis. 80% of these despots are female Orions with the strong backing of other females and Tah'e Bulls. They seldom last long if their rulership is based on fear or malicious behavior at their crews.
