They are a warrior race ruled over by a dominant family. In , the dominant family was Rhonkar. They are at war with the Boron KingdomFact|date=January 2008. Their territory includes their home sector Family Pride and 23 other sectors.

About 450 years before the events of , the Split Dynasty had destroyed most of the Boron colonies, forcing them back to Kingdom End. The Argon Federation helped the Boron repel an attack on their home world and officially entered the war themselves. The Paranid Empire sent ships to supplement Split warships in an attack on Argon Prime. This war is now known as "the Boron Conflict". The Split are the only race to have had contact with the Xenon, something which has caused distrust with many, especially the Argon. The Split Dynasty, Teladi Company and Paranid Empire form the Profit Guild.

Technology

The fiction behind the Split suggest that they are a very aggressive race, although in the game they appear just as aggressive as anyone else. Their ships are noticeably focused more on weapons than shields. Their ships supposedly use the "Markus Space Fly" for power although this is against the law in all other governments of the Community of Planets. The Split use Boron made Ion Disruptors to stun the Space Flies before capture.
