Culture & Society
Dwarves have always gathered around larger family units but with the move to space, this become even stronger. With clans setting up spaceships .. the richer and more powerful the bigger the ship .. as living spaces and centres of smaller mining, scout and production ships.
Muirak-Thol (high dwarfish meaning Tongue of Muiria), dialects are very common and the more wide spread are referd to as Thrakul (Forge Speech) or Hedrik-Tharn (Words of the Smiths). More specialised versions also exist and are usually called Grumnarik (Trade Tongue) or Gildram (Oath-speech) often employed in legal proceedings between clans. Most dwarves also speak the Galactic Common
Government
All the clans send out representatives to the Clan Assembly that resides on a station in orbit around their now mostly empty home world. They debate about all the issues that are of importance to all the dwarf clans and present a largely unified face in relations between the Dwarves and other nations, empires or other political bodies they would have contact with. The Clan Assembly itself has its own core and governing body, the Council of Clans, that act more like the Dwarven government .. and also as the main arbitrary body in disagreements between clans that can not be solved with the normal legal ways. The Council of Clans is also keeping track of all the contributions the clans make to the Dwarven military and would act as the unified controlling body in times of all out war. Positions on the Council are given by election in the Assembly.
History
Dwarves left their home, Muiria, because it become increasingly inhospitable. It was already a rocks place with overall less area to produce food then other habitable planets. Overpopulation, growing industry and conflicts lead to a global climate change that in turn created more and more problems.
However with advanced technology being developed, the dwarves started to take to space. Moving their industries to the planets orbit and then further out to the asteroids belts. This was also the time where the clan system was established as the Dwarves decided, that in space, there is room for everyone and that the conflicts that wrecked their planets habitability should not be repeated now.
