The Vosun have declared war on the Voth and called the Voth independence illegal. They have called on Voth citizens to over throw their "criminal masters" and restore the rule of the legitimate governor. Oddly enough the Vosun have a new ally to help them in this... the Bolitic Confederacy. Emperor Aliowaki has declared himself "the best friend" of the Vosun and says he will help support the Vosun-Voth Star Empire, which is thought to show that the Vosun are now a client state of the Bolitic.
The Bolitic are thought to be getting involved as the Voth have refused to pay any more money to the Bolitic as part of their "share" of the tribute.
