| + | This mission splintered the Hadeer, because a large portion of the population felt that Dominanta is not representing them and their interests and that, in fact, Dominanta is co-opting Hadeer culture as a means to gain power and money. Some also argued that Gor was not as representative of the Hadeer as Brum was, the city that was captured by the Dolysohs prior. |

| + | There was also significant anonymity against Odom, the first official gole of Dominanta, whose bloodlines were not clear. A significant portion of the Hadeer considered the Jumpelee clan to be the true leaders and thus did not recognize Odom as the gole. |

They have had significant financial influence in Jhet and Deeroh, with their bank operated out of Tirna. A number of nobles also purchased nobility titles in Dominanta in exchange for various services, usually of a military nature. Being a Dominanta noble also became somewhat of a status statement in Chusoh in the middle of the 20th century. |
