The Balaho Protectorate is the overall government of the Balaho, all of its colonies and the Unggoy species. The Balaho Protectorate is not considered an independent government but client state of the Loyal Jiralhanae of Doisac despite having its own trading accords and small military forces. However, its economy and colonies depend upon the several agreements with the Loyal Jiralhanae, forcing the Unggoy to limit their outgrowth.
