Information about the Tholian Hegemony

Note: There is a lot of information about the Tholian Hegemony that has never been disclosed outside of the members of the Tholian Hegemony on TOS TrekMUSE. The information contained within this page does not include all of that information, either. The majority of what the rest of TOS TrekMUSE did not know about the Tholians is hidden on the planets and bases the Tholians left behind and it is up to those on TOS TrekMUSE to search and find this information.

Disposition: Tholians are a very proud, religious, and tradition oriented people. Only one religion exists in their culture, and everyone is devoted to it. Tholians fear the destruction of their culture by external forces, yet are perpetually curious about other civilizations. Tholians enjoy mathematical-oriented art forms such as fractals and crystal growing. Tholians are very protective of their traditions, and therefore appear secretive to other empires.

Government

Tholian society is highly structured. At its head is the T'ac'cha, or Hegemon. He is more than merely a leader. In many ways, he is the embodiment of the religious force, the A'cha'chi'lo, or Essence.

Advising him is a collection of Tholians, known as the High Council. Each member of the High Council represents a different sector of Tholian society. These members are more than simply representatives, but they are the leaders of those different sectors or divisions. They are hand selected by the Hegemon to serve the Hegemony. Within each division is a hierarchy to represent their chain of command.
