URN: The United Research Nation
The United Research Nations, a collective of countries working together to improve their technologies. It is also one of the governing bodies of Sasan, the Research and Development sector of Agrovia. They have adopted much of [ARTRFACT]'s research and are currently researching Thermonuclear power.
It is divided into eight sectors, named after the moon phases, which are governed by what is known as [URN]'S Eight Moons.
Initially, the main Research and Development Faction of Agrovia was known as [CREST]. It was formed almost three thousand years ago by a man known as Argus Samford, who had succeeded his uncle, Dr Asimov Samford, the [Head Archivist] of the Agrovian Imperial Library. Taking over the old archives, Argus had inherently started what would become the first push to a Magickal and Scientific renaissance in Agrovia and the entire world of Illyah.
[CREST] had quickly become the heart of the scientific movement in the world and was responsible for theorizing the atom and, later, the [Derech Eretz]' energy field and [Derech] particle, as well as many other things. This, at the time, was strictly outlawed by the former church, [EON] – Who had absolute control over the nation and had only decided to 'loosen' their views after decades of dedication and debating from Argus' half. However, Argus had only managed to pursue them shortly before his death at sixty-three. Supposedly of a heart attack.
But the legacy he left behind not only made leaps and bounds for the scientific and Magick movement in Agrovia, but it also started the gears in the proverbial machine which eventually led to the rise of the Revolutionary Army in Agrovia – Headed by none other than Elaine, who later became the [Captain Commander] of Archadia and the "Mother of the New World." Alas, even she couldn't wholly dissipate [EON]'s control over Agrovia and later settled with a co-existence with them. Unbeknownst to her, this would lead to her downfall some sixteen hundred years later when the church revealed itself as the main 'head' of a very dangerous cult known as [GOETIA].
Moving back to [CREST] and its eventual evolution into [URN], this would happen in the years leading up to Elaine's death, where a female known as Areyth Valentine, who had been knighted as a [Saint] and inherited [CREST] as her faction after having been part of it for almost a decade. Areyth was unique, given she was a Homunculus, an artificial human created by the Valentine Familia – To protect the Noble houses. She was different to the rest, having acquired her passion for science and magick and her rather peculiar personality by complete chance. She was unique and used that feat to make a name for herself and eventually become possibly the most extraordinary mind in Agrovia's history – Only second to Crowley.
Founded half a century ago, [URN] has become the central figure of all research and science within Agrovia. Having succeeded the former Research Division of [CREST] – [URN] has wholly remodelled its entire system, from its structure to ethos, to fit with modern times and the growing need to pursue broader fields of research and development. Though [CREST] was advanced for its time, [URN] has made leaps and bounds in its areas of study, from furthering the research of [Hitlabshut] and its parts to the Quantum World and other 'new age' fields of study, as some would put it. Because Agrovia had theoretically skipped the industrial revolution entirely due to the presence of Torah crystals and Magick – Focuses had been keenly set on better understanding the world as we know it and to better use what was available at their disposal.
After the war, just over a decade before the current time, Areyth acquired the research materials left behind by Iwan and [ARTEFACT], one of [GOETIA]'s main Chapters and a mind that could surpass her own. Though much was lost in this time, the knowledge gained by what the enemy left behind had changed things entirely and uncovered many secrets of the Quantum world, among other things. Areyth had later completed Argus' dream of assimilating and proving the existence of the [Derech] particle and the [Derech Eretz] energy field and the properties of the energy that was theorized by him a few millennia before. Additionally, she discovered and created a new metal known as [Yesod Hapashut]. This was possibly the most remarkable feat in Agrovia's history, second only to discover how to harness the power of the [TORAH] crystal made by Madame Crowley in her younger years.
With the arrival of Agrovia in Lestar Earth; [URN] has taken up the role of creating a place for the World Alliance to call home and is also heading the new frontier of scientific advancements in the new world, starting with Marigold – And eventually, the Moonbase [ASTRON], which is currently in development.
URN's Eight Moons will oversee the entire Moon Base and the Facilities on Earth. Such as the hierarchy below.
◆ URN Founder/Leader:
Full Moon: Areyth Valentine – For the founding of URN and the discovery of the Sen Particle and the Senken Energy Field, and the entire ASTRON Moon Base.
◆ URN Vice Captain:
New Moon: Beatrice Dea – For the development of Magick Technology and further study of the Sen particle.
◆ URN Generals:
First Quarter: Ursa Lyre – For the development of LUNA's Technology and anti-magick technology
Third Quarter: Zackary Scottfield – For the founding of Cassiopeia and the development of Quantum Mechanics and the founding of new world technology and economy
◆ URN Progenitors:
Waxing Crescent: Talos – For the additions of alien technology and wisdom
Waning Crescent: Faith Forest – For the discovery and development of the former Lioral technology, LUNA
Waxing Gibbous: Theodore Gizmo Anderson – For the development of Nanotechnology
Waning Gibbous: VACANT

The URN Operatives LUNA Factions have been made a form using the technology of former Luxia, the blueprints and some of the technology having been found by Areyth; she had made sure to repurpose the old technology and weapons to fortify the Moon Base ASTRON. This technology is also used in Agrovia. However, it is more prominent on the Moon Base. URN is also known to contract its technology to allies. These are the various factions under the LUNA banner: ◆ UES and UFE – URN Engineering Scientists and Field Engineers: Whitecoats and Domehead" Commander: Areyth Valentine ◆ LEO and ESO – LUNA Enforcement Operatives and Elite Special Operatives: "Negotiators and Peacemakers" Commander: TBA ◆ LSO – LUNA Shadow Operatives "Sleeks" Commander: Opie Lyre ◆ MSO and MSH – Moon Shinobi Operatives and Moon Shogun "Shokuzu and Ronin" Commander: TBA
