House Nazarov

House Nazarov is one of the seven Great Houses of the Unified Vespian Directorate, and the eldest and most powerful of the seven. Established in 43 NE by Viktor Nazarov, one of the Seven Forefathers of the Vespian species, the Nazarovs make up the single largest group of Vespians in the species, and have the greatest amount of power in the Supreme Federal Congress as a result. The great house boasts the largest number of Supreme Directors in the history of the Vespian nation, and have been responsible for most of the race's greatest military feats and breakthroughs.

Though widely despised for its heavy-handed tactics in the political arena, the Nazarovs have a history of assisting smaller households who have sought out their aid. However, their assistance has often been driven by the Nazarovs' desire to displace House O'Neill, their historical enemy, as major power outside of the Cardinal Worlds. House Nazarov has traditionally been allied to House Madora and House Kane, dating as far back as the pre-spaceflight era of the Vespian species. Driven by their mutual desire to prevent the ascendancy of the O'Neills, the Nazarov-Madora-Kane alliance has been the source of many of the Vespians darkest conflicts.
