Sansha's Nation

Sansha Kuvakei

Sansha's Nation is a rogue state that occupies the Stain region. It was founded over a hundred years ago by Sansha Kuvakei, who wished to create a "utopian" society based around the exploitation of brainwashed slave labor by a small, cybernetically enhanced elite. The Nation, as it is called by its citizens, was destroyed by a {[CONCORD]]-led coalition of the empires in YC 37, leaving only remnants. However, the survivors managed to band together and re-emerged in YC105, gradually restoring its power and eventually launching a series of invasions into empire space in YC112.

Lore

Sansha's Nation is a dictatorship where the majority of citizens are "True Slaves" being controlled by brain implants. The "True Citizens" retain their free will, though they also have the same implants.

The Sansha's Nation was once one of the strongest empires in New Eden. But in YC 37 the truth of Kuvakei's intentions and his enslavement technology came out, and a CONCORD-led coalition of the five empires, including the Jove, destroyed the nation and killed Kuvakei.

The Nation was thought to be gone, but in YC 112 the Nation re-emerged. Nowadays, the Nation has sovereignty in the region of Stain and regularly stages Incursions into empire space.

Sansha's Nation is one of the most technologically-advanced groups in New Eden. They have particular mastery of wormhole generation.

Sansha's Nation in PvE

Sansha's Nation rats are found in eastern Amarr Empire regions, Ammatar Mandate controlled regions, and regions south of them. In these regions, you can encounter Sansha ships in asteroid belts and Sansha combat sites spawn. Sansha ships are also present in missions.

Sansha's Nation rats deal EM and thermal damage with an emphasis on EM damage. They are weakest against EM damage with thermal being the second best damage to use. They are armor-tanked and will actively repair their armor.

The EWAR of choice for Sansha ships is tracking disruption. For drone and missile ships this has no impact, but turret-using ships will suffer reduced ranges and reduced tracking speeds when fighting the Nation.

In Incursions, the Sansha's use completely different kinds of ships. Incursion ships deal omni damage, do not have weaknesses to any particular damage type, and do not use tracking disruptors.

Faction ships

Many of the Sansha's Nation ships are available for capsuleer use. These ships use laser turrets and have a strong bonus to afterburner speed which lets them essentially use afterburners to get the effect of microwarpdrives without the signature radius bloom caused by MWDs.
