Federal Republic

The Federal Republic is one of the great powers of the galaxy, its military, economic power and political influence make it a major player in galactic affairs, it is this entity that represents humans within the galaxy. It is now considered, by a very slight margin, to be the greatest power within the quadrant, but its place is disputed by the Zelvan Council, whose growing influence worries the Republic.

Structure

The Federal Republic or more commonly called the Republic, is organized around four levels of government which each have their specific competences but which generally take over the political structure of the federal government. The first is the federal level, which is headed by the President, the second are the sectoral levels, which are headed by governors, the third are the planetary levels, which are headed by intendants. Finally, the last levels are the municipal levels which are headed by mayors.

Culture

Since the population of the Republic represents all ethnicities on Earth, it is culturally extremely diverse. However, the greater proportion of certain ethnic groups within the population has favored the predominance of Asian, African and Middle Eastern cultures. Western culture, on the other hand, has had a great influence on the political model of the Republic, which takes inspiration from Western political regimes before the Solar Confederation while bringing many modifications to it that make it much more democratic than these predecessors.

As for the mentalities, they are on their side much more uniform than the cultures within the Republic thanks to the education which about the same on all the territory. However, certain regional divisions, which obviously do not threaten the overall stability of the Republic, are present within its territory. The first being the split between the extreme south and the rest of the Republic, the inhabitants of this area are generally more independent from the central government. The other major divide is that between the centre and the north of the territory, the inhabitants of the centre being closer to the Earth and those of the North more attached to Aderia, the economic capital of the Republic.

Demography and Population

The Republic has a population of approximately 574 Billion inhabitants who are mainly in the northwestern portion of the Republic's territories unlike the southeast which is very sparsely populated where the sector of Javin is located, which is the least populated by the Republic. The most populous planet in the Republic is the ecumenopolis Aderia, which alone has 21.4 Billion inhabitants. Humans make up 100% of the population, Republic also has zelvans, kedeshis and myrrans permanent residents who are mainly diplomatic personnel on Earth. The morphological difference between different galaxy's species and humans is too great for these to immigrate permanently in the Republic. The government has adopted the six most widely spoken languages in the Republic as its official language, namely English, Mandarin, Arabic, French, Spanish and Standard Hindi. However, it is English that is most often used in state affairs and in public signage.

Society

The society of the Republic is very egalitarian, the policies of the federal government put a particular emphasis on this aspect with, for example, a minimum and maximum salary. Taxes are also designed to redistribute wealth from the biggest corporations and the highest paid citizens to redistribute it down in society. The federal government also pays each non-working citizen an amount of money called the Universal Republican Guaranteed Income, the amount approximately equivalent to the minimum wage. The amount received is however modified if a citizen decides to practice a parallel activity that brings in money, his income is then subtracted from what the government gives him to know how much he will receive. The share of the population that receives this kind of income is 35%, which makes it a very important measure for the public

All these measures mean that, although gaps are present within society, they are not large enough to create a break between the different classes of the population. Republican society is one focused on the collective, education shows from childhood the importance of thinking about the common good and the importance of getting involved in democratic governmental bodies as well as that of the workplace. It is an essential aspect of the society, economy and politics of the Republic since the functioning of these is largely based on collectivism. Mentalities are therefore deeply imbued with this principle, but it should be noted that society still attaches great importance to basic individual freedoms, the rule of law and human rights.

Territories

The Republic has under its control one hundred and forty-two systems which it has during its expansion and has founded forty-nine colonies on different planets including four which is located on a gigantic world-ring built in the Cybrex system. The south-eastern territories of the Republic are the least populated, this has led to a much more criminality due to the less significant presence of the security forces. Part of the territory was also lost during the onatach's surprise attack during the Western War. During this war which took place from 2520 to 2526, the Republic lost a total of eight systems and three colonies.

Military

Navy

The Navy is the space branch of the military forces of the Republic and the most important in terms of men and equipment. The main goals are the defense of the Republic's border and planets, the transportation of military resources for supplies and carrying out military strikes in enemy territory during wartime.

Marine Corps

The Marine Corps are the ground invasion forces of the Republic, the soldiers of the Marine are able to face any type of environment and are reputed to be the best trained of the military forces. Their responsabilities are to invade enemy planets and reconquer Republican planets if enemy conquest occurs.

Air Force

The Air Force is the defensive air force of the Federal Republic, it is the third branch in terms of equipment and personnel within the armed forces. This branch will be particularly in the spotlight for its defense of Voga during the Western War where it will deliver heroic resistance, its pilots making sorties despite the air supremacy of the enemies.

Army

The Army is the second most important branch in terms of equipment and personnel of the armed forces and is responsible for the planetary ground defense, this branch is particularly known to the public thanks to these actions during the battle of Voga. It was during this battle that the Army forces on Voga withstood the invading Onatach forces about four months before a Republican counterattack freed Voga from the siege.

Structure

The armed forces is directed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff who have under his command the three main branches, under him, the Special Forces Joint Staff who take care of all special forces within the armed forces. The Joint Chiefs of Staff is directed by the Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff which transmits the latest military news to the Supreme Chief of the armed forces, the President of the Republic. The Department of Defense also has an important role because the Ministry of Defense is the President's adviser in everything related to the military. It also plays an intermediary role between the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the President when he cannot be there in person.

Technological Level

Modern medicine allows, thanks to genetic engineering, to eradicate genetic diseases because doctors can modify the DNA of the fetus before birth. Cancer is cured as easily as the common cold with the use of injections of nanorobots which remove cancer cells, which are then rejected by the body naturally. Life expectancy is around 151 years old due to pills that replace cells that have been poorly copied by the body over time and bionic organs. Citizens also have access to holographic watches which give them their health status live. The communications and the diffusion of informations are done by the Republican Space Network (RSN).

It is a platform where citizens and news channels can deposit content on the events of the galaxy or on anything else. The development of artificial intelligence led to the replacement of human labor by robots in many fields which required little skill such as resource extraction, customer service and industrial production to name a few but some areas have been blocked with artificial intelligence to avoid destroying all jobs. The use of bionic prosthesis for the replacement of defective or damaged organ is widespread but the use of it is regulated. Scientific research is carried out by the private sector and by the federal government via the various research institutes which are located in all the sector capitals and on Earth.

Religion

Even if the structures attached to it have long since disappeared, a small part of the population still practices the heirs of the old great religions. A larger part of the population practices new religions which are no longer so much focused on the belief in one or more gods, but acting more as philosophies of life for the faithful. Even if the majority of the population is officially atheist, for many religion has been replaced by their local community in which citizens must be involved because of the democratic functioning of society. Whether that of their apartment buildings, their work or their city whose citizens are generally very close.

Foreign Relations

The Republic has a good relationship with the Zelvan Concil and the Myrran Trade Union. These relations were cumulated in 2223 with the creation of an economic and military alliance to which the Myrran Trade Union joined in 2268 to created the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant. However, an economic and military rivalry is present between the Zelvan Council and the Federal Republic over the status of the predominant power within the Alliance after the Zelvan Council gained prestige by carrying out a successful intervention in the Continuation War.

The Holy Kingdom of Katho is a theocratic republic that has a had good relations with the Republic without being exceptional, despite this, trade takes place between the two entities. Even if it does not share a common border, the Republic maintains good relations with the Free Uriy Commonwealth because of the good relations it has with the Myrran Trade Union. The Onatach Empire is an empire that has a terrible relationship with the Republic and escalated into a war decades ago. From the first contact in 2227, all diplomatic relations were cut with this empire and the border, completely closed, the systems serving as an entry point into the Republic's territory being transformed into strongholds by the Navy since the first contact, even more since the Western War.

The Qravadox Empire and the Kingdom of the Houses of Youndarim are two empires that are the biggest rival of the Myrran Trade Union and the formation of an alliance between these two nations in 2441 to thwart influence of the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant further strained relations. However, even if the Republic takes this threat seriously and assures its support for the Union in the event of any hostile act, the distance means that there has never been any real contact between the two entities. Finally, the Endurga Stellar State is an empire that the Republic know is existence by the Holy Kingdom of Katho but since these are extremely distant and beyond the borders of the Republic, no formal contact has been established.

Economy

Framework

The economy of the Republic is a socialist one, that is to say, it places great emphasis on the redistribution of wealth and the rights of workers to govern themselves. The economy is regulated by three major organizations which are the government by two of its departments, that of the economy as well as the department of labor and employment and the Republican Central Bank. The two federal departments are mainly responsible for setting up legal standards concerning labor law, but also concerning business management. As for the Republican Central Bank, it is she who, under the supervision of the finance department, is mainly in charge of managing the currency of the Republic.

In accordance with this objective, it must create the money to distribute it to the various levels of government, of storing the money of each citizen as well as corporations in a unique single account and put a standard value on the raw materials in credit. Finally, it must also invest in the economy by giving loans to start-ups or well-established companies to help them develop and thus develop the economy, the money given is under constraint to achieve what has been announced to have the loan. As said previously, the republican economy is socialist, the management of the companies must thus be done in a democratic way with the installation of board of directors which are composed of employees elected by their colleagues.

This measure cannot however be applied to the government in certain cases, but others are planned to ensure management as democratic as in companies with the establishment of labor councils. The law also provides for other specificities concerning these councils to ensure the most democratic management possible. A large part of the sectors considered as key have either been completely nationalized and managed by one of the levels of government like energy, partially nationalized like the scientific research, some of the research is under public control or have been obliged by law to become NPO's like journalism. There is also a great separation between the economic environment and the political environment, since all elected officials and people occupying positions of high public office cannot be on a board of directors ten years before their hiring as well as after they left their jobs.

Wealth

The economy of the Republic has eight sectors of activity that are important enough to be listed in the national account, there are others, but the creation of wealth they generate is too low to be taken into consideration. In order, the first sector is governmental activities, retails and services, commerce and industry, construction, research and innovation, culture, agriculture and tourism. Within the galaxy, the Republic has one of the largest and most competitive economies thanks to the size of its population which allows companies to have access to a large pool of consumers.

The government sector represents the economic activities that are carried out by the government, in particular through the partial or total nationalization of very important sectors such as energy, transport infrastructure and scientific research. Through the Republican Central Bank, the government is also a major player in economic investment, these loans being quite advantageous, but the private sector is still the majority investor in the economy. The retail and service sector represents the economic activity carried out by retail businesses and the service industry. The first being businesses such as grocery stores, pharmacies or any other local businesses. The second is represented by any establishment that provides a service to the population such as a restaurant, a hairdressing center or a company providing professional advice.

This sector is very important for the Republic because it is the basis of the economic activity of all the cities of the Republic. The sector of industry and trade represents economic activities related to all industrial activities as well as those related to transactions for the exchange of goods. Between the two, industry clearly occupies the largest share with fully automated production methods, it can produce all that the Republic needs. For trade, internal trade is the most important for the Republic, even if trade with its allies is not negligible. The construction sector represents economic activities related to the construction of buildings or infrastructures.

It includes construction companies as well as engineering firms and architects who develop the projects. The research and innovation sector represents scientific corporations, university laboratories and all economic activities related to technological development. For the more minor sectors, but which are no less important, these are agriculture, culture and tourism. They represent, in order, all the activities related to the production of food as well as its transformation, the economic activities related to culture. Finally, tourism which is mainly domestic tourism since it is difficult for the different species of the galaxy to coexist together, the morphological differences being too great. All of the Republic's economy is powered by nuclear fusion and, since the year 2365, the Dyson Swarm in the Qazzan system.

Trade & Transport

Trade

The Republic's main trading partners are the Zelvan Council and the Myrran Trade Union, another part of the trade is with theHoly Kingdom of Katho. Goods transported within the Republic include several types of materials, including raw materials such as minerals, food and elements for nuclear fusion. There are also all processed materials which can be used in many fields such as household goods, planetary construction and the construction of civil and military vessels.

Interplanetary Transport

To move between the different systems of the Republic and other empires, the passenger and goods vessels use the different wormholes that connect them with the help of the Star Drive. Inside systems, the vessels use the Star Drive which allows them to go to two hundred percent of the speed of light, which distort space time to accelerate the vessel. The government also set up Spatial Road, they are safe route within the Republic that pass through all important systems.

Planetary Transport

Between cities, the movement of people and goods is done by high-speed trains, these can go at around 700 km / h, this has been made possible by the development of trains operating in a hybrid way, on wheels when a train approaches a station or is traveling below 50 km / h and by magnetic levitation to reach its cruising speed. These were therefore installed on all the planets of the Republic, making it possible to link their most important cities. Transcontinental connections are provided by supersonic planes which connects cities on different continents which are generally well served by high-speed train lines.

In cities, autonomous minibus have the monopoly of roads which are underground for the highways and on the surface for the secondary road, ones which leave room for pedestrians on the surface. This very efficient mode of transport is very popular with citizens who only have to request a minibus on their phone for it to arrive. The metro lines serving as a structuring network for most cities and the trams which provide a more local service. Finally, travel on foot and by bicycle also counts for a lot in the cities of the Republic, this is explained by the fact that the cities are mostly reserved for pedestrians and are equipped with quality cycling infrastructure.

Education

Education within the Republic is provided by the different sectors, but federal law requires that education be free throughout the academic trajectory, that all citizens have access to it, that the program given there be secular and met the education levels prescribed by the federal government. The first level of education is general school which is mandatory and given to people between the ages of five and twenty : it teaches the basics such as writing, reading and arithmetic amongst others. Then, the second level is the specialized school which lasts four years : it allows citizens to orient themselves towards the domain they prefer but it only teaches the basics of the domain at study. Finally, the last level is higher education, which generally lasts six years : it is aimed at citizens who want to start a professional career in large companies or different levels of government.

Infrastructure

Civil

The main infrastructures which allow the good functioning of the economy of the Republic are the planetary spaceport and the orbital stations. These make the link between space and the planets. Indeed, goods or passenger vessels need these two major infrastructures to be able to land and exit the vessel or unload their cargo. Some are also too heavy to be able to tear themselves away from the gravity of the planet, so they need the stations to moor which leads shuttles to bring their cargo or their passengers to the surface. The wormholes need to be stabilized with a huge ring that surrounds it and many stations are also built at their entrance so that the vessels can refuel and repair.

Military

The republicain's military forces rely on numerous facilities to be able to be operational. First, the Navy uses a network of Starbase, which are located in planets' orbit, they are used as a point of defense, repair and refuel. Six of them, which are in orbit of the sectors' capital, are also shipyards for the construction of the Navy's ships. Also, the Army and Marines use planetary military bases to repair, store and maintain their vehicles.

Major Exports
The Republic exports much more than it imports, indeed, it sells to the other empires a large quantity of vessels manufactured by the various republican corporations, food proper to the Republic, precious metals that the other empires have steps and a large proportion of cultural material.
Major Imports
The Republic mainly imports metals, works of art and exotic alien food which are in great demand by the traders who sell them afterwards. One of the Zelvan metals is particularly sought after by artisans, Zelvanium is a particularly hard and light metal, prized by the wealthy. Several brands of alien vessels have also been authorized to sell their vessels within the Republic such as the zelvan, myrran and kedeshi corporations.
Legislative Body
The Senate is the main legislative body of the Republic, he sits in New York on Earth. Composed of 5,000 Senators representing approximatly 191 millions citizens. They are elected by universal suffrage for a four-year term with a maximum of four terms in their lifetime. Approves or rejects the proposals of the government, if this one is refused, they can propose amendments throught their parties. May also vote on motions of symbolic significance proposed by the parties, they are generally used to indicate the opinion of the Senate on a subject. Choose the Prime Minister, the ten advisors of the Cabinet and all the ministers of the Council of Ministers, according to their experience, from the three choices proposed by the President in the case of the Prime Minister and the latter for the ministers. Ultimately it must serve as a forum for debate on major societal issues.
Judicial Body
The head of the Republican justice system is the Supreme Court, is located in Shanghai on Earth. In order for the cases to reach the Supreme Court, they first had to be appealed by the lower courts or to be of exclusive federal jurisdiction. Arrived at the federal level, the case will be presented to the court which suits him best. There are a total of five criminal courts and seven administrative courts which are all designed to deal with cases related to particular fields. In the case that the judgment is appealed, it is then transferred to the Supreme Court. To select the judges of the Supreme Court, three candidates from the lower courts are selected by an independent commission. Then the Director of Justice chooses one of the three, his choice must be approved by a majority of judges already sitting in court.
Executive Body
The head of the executive body is the President of the Republic, there offices are in Paris on Earth. The President of the Republic is elected by universal suffrage for a non-renewable eight-year term with a limit of one term in his lifetime. It orients foreign policy, appoints the Prime Minister with the consent of the Senate, heads the republican armed forces and can modify the constitution with the consent of the Senate and the population. The Prime Minister is appointed by the president, this choice is then approved by the senate. He draws up government budgets, appoints the ministers as well as the General Secretary by selecting three candidates who will be presented to the Senate so that one of them is chosen and ensures the link between the various ministers and the President. The departments are also an important part of the executive apparatus because they manage the bureaucracy and take care of the public companies in many fields like transport, communications, and many others. All the headquarters of the federal departments as well as their agencies are also located in Paris on Earth, except those of the Department of Defense and the armed forces branches which are in the city of Addis Ababa on Earth. Ministers of all departments are elected by the Senate according to three proposals proposed by the Prime Minister, the proposal which has the most votes obtains the post.

    Climate change migrations
    Population Migration / Travel

    The effects of climate change, such as rising sea levels or the decrease in the availability of drinking water in certain regions, will lead to the greatest human migration since humans left Africa. Indeed, these effects will result in the angling under the waters of several coastal regions such as South Florida, the pacific islands, many regions in Southest Asia and many city of China's coastline. However, some cities will resist by building dykes inspired by what the Netherlands is doing, which will save part of their territory. Despite this, most will be forced to reduce their surface area to deal with flooding and to develop better environmental resilience, which will induce a change in the urban planning of cities, favoring very high density. The abandonment of regions of the world that have become uninhabitable due to the heat or lack of water, such as the regions bordering the Sahara, which will simply cause countries to disappear, or the abandonment of the American West which will significantly reduce agricultural production in the United States. All its major changes will bring a great popular uproar in the face of the inaction of governments which will be slow to really or simply not address certain problems, becoming the major cause of the Great Transition.

    Political event

    Thanks to diplomatic pressure from countries that feel excluded from the conquest of space and the weakening of the great powers with the sums spent in space conquest, a renegotiation of the old Outer Space Treaty begins. Despite the opposition of China and the United States, they cannot resist against the international tensions which are extremely strong. The negotiations ultimately lead to the International Treaty on the Occupation and Exploitation of the Solar System which leads to the creation of an international space agency which coordinates all space missions. Member countries must report all sptial missions, whether public or private, to the agency that records them. The first action of this agency is to order an international base on the Moon and on Mars which will bring together almost all the countries of the world.

    Mars scandal
    Civil action

    Journalists reveal to the world unreported expeditions to the International Space Agency carried out by private space companies from different countries around the world. In addition, they reveal that these companies bought up important politicians who hedged these expeditions by promising them a portion of the profits. This scandal will show the citizens of the world the corruption of politicians by the private sector which has taken a lot of expansion. The absence of sanctions against these companies, because of the corruption of the leaders, by the countries which bother them will make matters worse and frustrate the citizens even more. Austerity measures have indeed been implemented almost everywhere on the planet due to the blows of space programs, the consequences of climate change have also led to very costly disasters for the countries of the world. This austerity must also lead, paradoxically to a reduction in measures against global warming deemed too costly while the UN Secretary General constantly repeats the urgency of climate change. All these factors will lead to a meteoric increase in inequalities, unemployment, international tensions and corruption, the authors of which will take advantage of the instability to buy politicians.

    Great Transition
    Revolution

    As a result of a dire global economic situation, mass unemployment and government corruption, great instability has taken hold on the planet and a spark could blow everything up. This will come with the revelation by journalists of the biggest corruption scandals in history, a global scandal that affected almost every country. This scandal revealed that the most powerful multinationals on the planet have taken advantage new revenues from space exploitation to corrupt a large part of the politicians. They have passed legislation to speed up the use of robots while preventing the implementation of social measures to fight poverty. First suppressing the protests, the governments of the world will very quickly find themselves overwhelmed by the magnitude of the movement, the demonstrations quickly turning into a revolt and even sometimes into a street fight. Some will then adopt measures on an unprecedented scale to calm the situation while others will do nothing leading inevitably to their overthrow. Most of the most democratic countries on the planet will take the path of reforms transforming them into much more democratic regimes than their ancestors. While most of the harshest dictatorships will be overthrown, replaced by democratic governments. The rest of the countries will take varying paths, but the end result will still be that countries around the world will turn to semi-direct democracy. The changes that this will initiate will be highly visible a few years after the transition. In fact, governments are very quickly going put in place measures to fight poverty and fundamentally change the economic system which will gradually become socialist. For multinationals, they will all be dismantled into smaller companies that respect the new democratic form of the economy. The global financial system will be dismantled and replaced by a system of pricing resources overseen by the UN, while the banks will all be nationalized and the system of action abolished. The UN will also take advantage of the general chaos to establish itself as a world authority, with the abolition of the Security Council and the transfer of these powers to the Secretary General. It immediately adopts global measures to combat global warming, even if energy production and transport had largely decarbonized with the massive adoption of nuclear power as well as the electric car. The production process was still very damaging to the environment, which is why the UN is adopting these emergency measures to reduce the ecological footprints of humanity which had produced already devastating effects. The UN is also setting up an international initiative for the control of nuclear fusion, which seems to be the most promising energy for humanity. Another project was already underway, known as ITER, but budget cuts had not allowed it to reach its full potential even though the facilities had been built. The UN is getting him back on his feet and giving him all the additional funds, other reactors that had been built elsewhere are also being granted additional funds.

    Moon incident
    Military: Skirmish

    While space exploration is raging, the various powers are trying to claim as much territory as possible on the Moon and Mars, which are currently the only celestial bodies within reach of humanity for colonisation and permanent settlements. This race for territory will lead to an incident between China and the United States on the Moon. An American prospecting team will chase the Chinese from a site they planned to exploit, considering that it is in the territory of an American lunar base. The Chinese will then retaliate by shooting on the prospecting team which will cause deaths, multiple skirmishes will then break out on the Moon and on Earth, especially near the Taiwan Strait, between the Chinese and the American. Tensions will then rise and will almost trigger an open war, but it is at this point that the countries will be shaken by multiple movements of protests which will force them to negotiate a white peace. There was also some international pressure for negotiations, with other countries fearing an escalation into nuclear conflict.

    Nuclear Fusion
    Technological achievement

    Although nuclear fusion had made tremendous progress in recent decades following several technological breakthroughs, it had failed to produce more energy than traditional nuclear fission. The Great Transition will also slow development due to political and economic instability. However, towards the end of this period, when the UN will obtain more power, it will launch a major fundraising campaign to develop the technology. This will be spread over about four years and will see an explosion of research in this sector, all its efforts will culminate with the first truly efficient reactors in 2054. The reactors that will prove most effective will be those that use magnetic confinement fusion or inertial confinement fusion, the types of reactors to achieve this will vary, but the majority will use these two types of method. This form for energy production with fusion will therefore become the most widely used by civil ones, even today. After this discovery, the UN will immediately release funds to build this type of reactor anywhere on the planet.

    International Treaty on Artificial Intelligence
    Diplomatic action

    Also, part of the world's population was deeply shocked by the use of various autonomous combat vehicles during skirmishes during the Moon incidents. To show their people how different they are from previous governments. Some of them made public records of battles that had taken place on the Moon and Earth which all revealed the horror of these craft. A great movement then took shape to legislate internationally these machines, and more generally, artificial intelligence. They won their case when the UN decided, with its new powers, to launch an international negotiation on the subject. The public pressure being very strong, all the countries joined the negotiation and this one resulted in a treaty after one year of negotiation. This treaty put in place the ban on several things including the restriction of certain weapons using artificial intelligence and the ban on the development of sentient artificial intelligence. In terms of employment, the general purpose of the restrictions will be to fix the main purpose of the artificial intelligence as a performer and not as a decision making one, if so, only at a local scale to prevent a malfunction or problem from affecting all of humanity. This is why, for example, most processes within civilian ships will be automated, but a small team will still be present to oversee everything. These regulations will be transposed into the regulations of the Solar Confederation, and subsequently, of the Federal Republic when it is created.

    Thanks to nuclear fusion and the efforts of countries that had already started their energy transition before the discovery of fusion, carbon neutrality has been achieved. In addition, the UN will put in place a lot of program to repair the damage that humans have caused on the planet such as an Amazon reforestation program or another aimed at deacidifying the oceans to save the corals.

    Colonial claims
    Diplomatic action

    Thanks to the stability and the support brought to colonization by the UN, a wave of colonists had moved towards the Moon and Mars which considerably increased their population. The discovery of nuclear fusion is also another cause of the notable increase in the population of the Moon and Mars since this major discovery will quickly lead to the mastery of the Fusion Drive, drastically reducing travel times between the celestial bodies of the solar system. Furthermore, mineral resources present in the solar system have pushed the countries of the world to organize prospecting and establish automated mining colonies on several moons or asteroids of the solar system. This dramatically increased the volume of resources passing through the Moon and Mars which attracted people coming for economic opportunities. Jupiter's moon, Ganymede, will also begin to be permanently settled in 2059 by a United Nations mission and will become the center of operations in the outer solar system, the population will increase rapidly. A small population will also settle on Ceres, but this planet will be quickly abandoned from 2144 with the discovery of Star Drive. However, this increase gives rise to demands on the part of the colonists who wish to acquire more decision-making powers from the master countries. However, they will be reluctant to do so for fear that the colonies will eventually become independent. Unrest will then shake the colonies and a demonstration will then turn into a bloodbath when a police officer fires in the crowd by mistake. This event forces the master countries to accept the mediation proposed by the UN in the face of the international scandal that this incident provokes. The negotiations lead to the independence of the colonies which form several countries on Mars, but only one on the Moon and Ganymede because of their small population. However, these remain under the aegis of the UN in exchange for a seat in the General Assembly to represent them during the votes. The new contries on Mars also cannot have armed forces, which was a condition for independance from master contries, and must also adopt a democratic political system which respects fundamental freedoms.

    The independence of the colonies will bring a problem at the level of governance of the UN since the new members of the latter judge that they are treated differently than the countries of the Earth. Indeed, The latter will judge the countries of the Earth have too great an influence within the General Assembly compared to them and that the prohibition imposed on them not to have armed forces is discriminatory since the countries of the Earth are not subject to this obligation. The citizens of the Earth, sympathizing for the majority with the cause of the colonists will put pressure on their government so that reforms are put in place. The less powerful countries of the Earth, seeing in a potential reform of the UN a means of being better represented will also put pressure. All of these factors will eventually lead to the establishment of a major international conference on UN reform, with the most powerful countries having no choice but to participate. Facing, on the one hand, the wish of their own citizens and on the other, the pressures of the less powerful countries of the Earth and those of Mars, the latter having agreed to form a common front on this topic. Finally, the negotiations will lead to the creation of the Solar Confederation which replaces the UN, which is a representative democracy led by a President elected by universal suffrage for a six-years term. The General Assembly is used to represent the people of each member state, a number of representatives proportional to its population is given to it. The Confederation takes charge of the federal army, to regulate relations between member states, federal justice and police, everything related to the common currency, to ensure that democratic values and human rights are respected by member states, if this is not the case, the central government can take coercive measures to ensure that it is. It should be noted that the states will be authorized to have their own army, this was necessary for the states to agree to sign, but they are counterbalanced by the federal army which is large enough to precisely prevent it from being surpassed by states. In addition, the federal government can take control of national armies in a crisis situation and can call them into battle. Finally, it also collects the contribution of each member state which is fixed in the constitution at 10% of the revenue of each government, it can also set taxes or certain regulations on companies and on what relates to space to finance itself with the agreement of the General Assembly. A few months after the founding of the Confederation, the countries of the world will, in order to increase their political influence in this new confederation, form several regional unions which will turn into real states. Some continents will merge entirely since they are quite close culturally, such as North, Central and South America as well as Europe, which will all unite politically. While other more culturally diverse continents like Africa, the Middle East and Asia will create several that roughly respect cultural boundaries. In order to be on neutral ground, the signing by the countries of the founding charter will take place within the international base on the Moon which is known today as Inerba, the largest city of the latter.

    This titanic project supposed to last at least two hundred years, is the project that was initiated by the Solar Confederation to federate humanity around it.

    Solar Terror Attacks
    Disaster / Destruction

    Shortly after the foundation of the Solar Confederation, a majority of the member states was quite weak since they had just been created. Particularly the unions of the countries of the Earth, since everything had to be created and ten years were therefore necessary for these states to be truly stable with the creation of the main institutions. Even if the Martian countries were less affected by this problem since pre-existing to the confederation, reforms were still necessary with the additional latitude offered to them. Taking advantage of all this, a Martian independence group, which had become extremist after the most moderate left the group following the founding of the Confederation since they were satisfied with the latter, called the Martian Liberation Front, decided to take action to send a strong signal. Opposing any form of governance from Earth, they staged bombings in three symbolic locations. The first and most important was in New York, with the aim of targeting the seat of the General Assembly of the Confederation. The second on the Moon, in the town of Inerba, near the monument under construction, commemorates the signing of the founding document of the Solar Confederation. Finally, a last on Mars in the city of Ashera, targeting the parliament of the Republic of Tharsis which was considered by the group as a traitor to Mars since having fiercely campaigned for the Confederation. The attacks will be rapid and brutal, causing a hundred and fifty-seven deaths in all, they will scandalize the solar system. Far from achieving their goal of destabilizing the Confederacy, the group was quickly neutralized by a joint federal investigation. The remnants of the independence movement would later distance themselves from the group by moving towards the legal route, but never succeed in truly winning over popular opinion.

    Venus terraformation
    Construction beginning/end

    With the terraforming of Mars, the authorities of the confederation will start another terraforming project with the planet Venus, this one will be partially done much more quickly with the technological knowledge acquired with the terraforming of Mars. This event marks the restoration of a normal planetary rotation, a change in the atmospheric composition and the restoration of a pressure similar to the Earth, these changes will allow humans to circulate on the planet equipped with a suit. However, like Mars, the complete terraforming will not be completed until a hundred years later, but unlike the latter, the planet at the end of the process will be completely habitable due to gravity similar to Earth. The terraforming of Venus and Mars, although successful, will be very expensive, which will encourage the government to focus in the future only on terraforming, when necessary, on already partially habitable planets while respecting the environment.

    Star Drive
    Technological achievement

    Invented through a partnership between several technology companies and the Confederation's government that have succeeded, thanks to their discovery of nuclear fusion, which will allow them to gather enough energy to bend space-time with particularly powerful particle capacitors. The commercialization of nuclear fusion in fact gave access to a considerable amount of energy which made it possible to gather enough energy to accomplish this operation. This engine makes it possible to go to 40% of the speed of light, it uses Alcubian propulsion. Thanks to this engine, humanity conquered the entire solar system and began a great era of prosperity. However, some colonies will begin to decline or be totally abandoned as a place of habitation since their primary purpose as an anchor point for ships making the long journeys between the inner and outer solar system no longer exists. Indeed, the tremendous speed allowed by the Star Drive allowed the ships to reach their destination non-stop. This is how Ceres will be totally abandoned to simply become a mining post and a small automated port with a limited human presence. The Moon as a place of permanent residence will continue to exist, but its population will drastically decrease over time to the profile of Earth, Mars and Ganymede.

    Instant communications
    Technological achievement

    This technology was made possible thanks to the previous mastery of nuclear fusion which, over the years, has perfected itself to set up smaller and smaller reactors until it can only be installed on a large satellite. The completion of the mastery of neutrinos in 2156, a sub-atomic particle that passes through all matter will also greatly help in the developpement of the technology. The combination of these three techniques will allow almost instantaneous communications throughout the solar system at the time of the Confederation. Today, the entire Republic and all known alien powers is served by this means of communication. This discovery profoundly changed the face of the solar system paving the way for greater centralization which many groups will demand, but resistance from national governments will block any such projects. It was only the dramatic event at the Zhihao complex that forced national governments to make concessions.

    Mars' terraformation advancements
    Technological achievement

    After roughly one hundred years, the project was finally partially completed with the establishment of an artificial magnetic field and the composition of a primitive atmosphere that will decrease the need for colonists to wear suits. With all this, the humans present there were able for the first time to escape the underground cities that had been built since the beginning of colonization and begin to massively occupy the surface with subdome cities. Indeed, the process will take another 150 years to be fully completed, despite this, due to the low Martian gravity, the atmosphere is not dense enough to allow humans to breathe without equipment even today. The same characteristic forces the inhabitants to stay in the closed facilities to gain access to an earth gravity. The underground cities which made the particularity of Mars began to be gradually abandoned and this one experienced a phenomenal increase in its population. Several technologies that were used during terraforming will go a long way to repairing the damage caused on Earth by humans before the discovery of fusion. Also, atmospheric manipulation technologies will greatly slow down the effects of global warming and begin to remove excess carbon dioxide from the Earth's atmosphere.

    Venus crisis
    Political event

    The partial end of the terraforming process of Venus will cause an administrative headache since the planet will not belong to anyone while it suddenly becomes open to sustained colonization and nothing had been planned to fill this void. The most economically powerful countries will each immediately claim a part of the planet. The smallest, as they themselves, demand that the planet be placed under federal control and declared a neutral zone so that all countries can access it. Moreover, even the countries that were powerful enough to claim territory on Venus will not agree on their claims, which leads to conflicts between them. The culmination of this crisis will come when ships from the European Union and the Republic of Tharsis, a Martian nation, protecting colonial ships, will open fire on each other causing the death of five hundred people in the skirmish. The scandal will force the federal government to intervene, it will immediately order a blockade of the planet by the Navy until an agreement is reached. After the blockade has been put in place, the federal government will set up several meetings so that all member countries agree on a fair share of Venus. However, the intransigence of many economically powerful countries will considerably delay the negotiations. In addition, not possessing enough military forces, the most powerful countries cannot impose themselves by force against the federal government, which, for its part, cannot fully accept the demands of these countries which are far too large and would leave the other smaller countries frustrated which would harm the cohesion of the confederation. The negotiations then fall to a standstill while a status quo is established which will greatly annoy the population or a feeling of frustration towards the structure of the federal government which is considered too decentralized which hinders joint decision-making. This feeling will contribute to the election of several pro-centralization leaders at the head of several countries, particularly after the disaster of the Zhihao Complex, which will mark the spirits. Moreover, to support the blockade, the federal government will drastically increase the production of military vessels which will greatly increase its military power.

    Zhihao Complex Disaster
    Disaster / Destruction

    This accident caused the death of hundreds of people and was one of the major causes of the transition of the Solar Confederation towards the Federal Republic by showing the defects of the too little centralized system of the Solar Confederation. Indeed, that day, a ship whose reactor failed collided with another, the two plunging to the surface and crashing into the docks of Inerba, the lunar capital, and creating a gaping hole in the structure. Creating a catastrophic depressurization in the area near the docks which also hosted boarding areas for passengers, resulting in the death of hundreds of people. The partial destruction of the landing bays also slows down the relief operations, which were also slow to arrive after the disaster. The Navy is then sent by the federal government to support the relief operations, the Navy was however denied access to the complex by the lunar authorities who want to prove that they are able to handle the situation. The Moon is indeed a member state of the Confederation which is often judged by others as having little value because of its demographic weakness, even if the Moon is important economically. The Moon authorities therefore want to prove their worth by managing the situation and prove their know-how to the system. However, because the moon has only a small civilian fleet since it does not have the means to have a military fleet, they were forced to requisition civilian vessels, which further reduced the relief efforts. Finally, after a standoff of several days and seeing that they could not manage the relief alone, the Moon accepted the sending of the Navy by the federal government. After the situation was brought under control, an independent commission of inquiry will be formed by the government to investigate the causes of the accident and the response of the lunar authorities to the disaster. The conclusions of the latter will give one more argument to the pro-centralizations since it will reveal that the main cause of the accident is the poor maintenance of the ship which was not kept up to standard by the company. Mainly due to a certain laxity of the regulations of the lunar government, the owning company being based on the Moon. The report will also point to the catastrophic reaction of the lunar authorities who delayed relief. Finally, she will declare that the establishment of rules at the federal level to ensure a certain standard in terms of security could ensure that this type of event is avoided in the future. This scandal will definitely turn public opinion in favor of greater centralization, several major countries will then elect pro-centralization leaders. Those who will be against centralization will then begin to be in the minority which will isolate them diplomatically.

    Discovery of wormhole
    Discovery, Exploration

    The wormholes were discovered by the chief scientist Rachida Laroui directing the Confederation vessel CS Sangan. This vessel was investigating mysterious disappearances of ships in the area for about a year. They finally discovered the origin of the disappearances when they detected a disturption of space-time allowing them to identify the wormhole. They could also see that this wormhole seemed to lead to another system opening the way for humanity to interstellar colonization. This major discovery will be the element which will make it possible to find an excuse for the pro-centralization leaders to campaign for a total reform of the confederation.

The negotiations that were underway for the partition of Venus are then reoriented with the aim of negotiating and ratifying a new constitution. These lasted about a year, from may 2199 to April 2200 when the text was officially adopted by the Confederation. The new constitution will completely transform the old outdated Confederacy government by the creation of multiples federals institutions like the senate. Greater centralization which will give it much more powers such as colonization, the creation of the planetary level which will begin to render the countries on Earth and Mars obsolete as well as allow the colonization of Venus which was endowed with its own planetary government. The government of the Moon will be merged with that of the Earth, having very bad press and the Moon having never really recovered from the loss of its status as a commercial hub between Earth and Mars with the discovery of the Star Drive. All of these changes will also lead to a name change of the Confederation, which will be renamed Federal Republic. However, it will be necessary to wait for the reforms of 2273 and 2375 to see the government that we know today.

This incident has surely left a bitter taste to the onatachs which has surely contributed to the animosity that the onatachs have towards the Republic, the latter will then set up a buffer zone in the north. What forced the Republic to halt its expansion to the Icheon system, similar incidents were reported to the Cuorilia and Dreteris systems soon after which roughly determined their boundaries.

Further, since Intelligence Services Agency reports that they are a militarist and expansionist power border tensions have greatly increased.

    Territorial War
    Military: War

    This war was caused by territorial rivalries on the systems surrounding that of Subtranius between the Myrran Trade Union and the Qravadox Empire, what really did break out the war however was the invasion by the qravadox of the world of Ungus. This world in Qravadox space, which was home to a primitive species arriving at the atomic age, had the protection of the Myrran Trade Union who wanted to use it as an excuse to go to war if the Qravadox Empire became too threatening. However, knowing the serious military weaknesses of the Myrran Trade Union, the Qravadox Empire decided to invade Ungus to provoke the Union, having no choice to retaliate at the risk of losing face, the Union declared war which officially triggered it. The Qravadox Empire was little known to the Republic at the time, and its existence was only learned about a decade before war broke out, thanks to diplomatic relations with the myrran. From the first years, the war went very badly for the Union which did not have, at the time, any centralized military command which created a lack of coherence in the military maneuvers. The military fleets are under the responsibility of the large Myrran corporations which each manage a part of the myrran space. After three years of almost continuous defeat, the Myrran Trade Union's government began to coordinate Union military efforts to avoid a total fiasco with the creation of a line of defense to contain the enemy which was the Union's first success in the war. Blocking the advance of the Qravadox Empire and allowed the Union to regain some territory, it began to suffer heavy losses trying to break it which was a major factor in the acceptance of peace negociations with the Myrran Trade Union a year later. The Qravadox Empire therefore succeeded in achieving its war aims by taking part of its territory from the Union, but contenting itself with what it wanted since it did not wish to take the more inhabited territories which would be difficult to hold on the long term. After the war, the Myrran Trade Union set up a centralized military command which will be used in times of war, the rest of the time, the military forces are under the responsibility of the various megacorporations. Defeat was also going to be one of the main reasons for the Myrran Trade Union to create the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant with the Zelvan Council and the Federal Republic a few decades later, as the Union sought allies to ensure its security. The Qravadox Empire will also definitively take control of Ungus which it will transform into a naval production center using local labor.

    Wormholes Terror Attacks
    Disaster / Destruction

    This attack will be perpetrated by a group of religious fanatics who reject any idea of space colonization, considering it blasphemous for humans to venture there. Indeed, space is, according to them, the residence of god and if humans continue to tread on it, it will trigger the apocalypse. Being ready to do anything to achieve their goal, their members, mainly people of combat age, will plan a terrorist attack in the solar system which will aim to prevent the transit out of it. Unfortunately for them, they will not have sufficient means to attack all the wormholes in the system, so they will focus on symbolic targets such as those towards Alpha Centauri and Adumir which were the first to be discovered by the Republic. Terrorists will fill ships with explosives and remote control them to detonate them near wormhole access points, both of which will send a cloud of debris nearby. This will damage several key infrastructures including the stabilization rings and cause damage or destruction of about sixty ships at the two wormholes. All this destruction will lead to the death of 6,256 people since several survival systems and several depressurizations will be caused by the very numerous debris. This attack, in addition to its human cost, will prevent transit for the two wormholes for several weeks. The group will then be dismantled by the NIA which will spot it thanks to the tracing of the purchases of explosives on the black market. The NIA will also begin to closely monitor known groups that may pose terrorist threats and neutralize them if necessary.

    Constitutional Reformations
    Political event

    This period marks a major constitutional reform of the Republic under the presidency of Carlos Perez. The latter will see the creation of two new order of government that are the sectors and the metropolitan areas to relieve the federal government. This reform was made necessary because of the expansion of the Republic therefore obliging the creation of an intermediate governmental level between the federal and planetary levels. Indeed, the Republic had reached a stage where it had too many planets for only the federal government to manage their problems. The creation of metropolitan areas are also made necessary to standardize planetary management and make it simpler. Another change is the removal of countries that had survived so far on Earth and Mars for the sake of stardartization. Indeed, the fact that these countries do not have the power of colonization and that they have been deprived of powers by the creation of the planetary order of government has taken away most of their political powers. In addition, except Earth and Mars, no other planets that have been colonized by the Republic have this additional order of government. This is satisfied with the planetary level which can delegate powers to cities. The creation of additional levels of government, namely sectors and metropolitan areas, would make this particularity of the Earth and Mars more handicapping than anything else. It is therefore decided to remove this level despite the opposition of these said countries, they can not do much because they are literally alone against all. Indeed, the Intendants of Earth and Mars are for this constitutional amendment to gain more powers as well as the Intendants of all other planets and the Republican rulers. These constitutional changes will finally make it possible to clearly establish the powers of the four orders of government that we know today. On the other hand, many agencies and registers were created during this period to ensure better administrative management of the Republic and ensure compliance with federal laws.

    Construction beginning/end

    Started twenty years earlier, the first megastructure project was completed in the year 2331. The main purpose of the latter was to extend the longevity of the sun and reduce its size to limit the sunshine that Venus received, it was already accomplished by orbiting mirrors around it, but the Republic hoped with this megastructure to make it permanent. Using the concept of the Stellar Engine, but with the difference that the energy produced will not be used to produce thrust, rather energy that will be harvested. In addition to the machine itself, three fixed solar stations were built to deflect sunlight on small areas of its surface and thus lift material which will be brought to the megastructure using electromagnetic fields. With the success of the megastructure, more will be built in other Republic systems that have stars more massive than the sun to stabilize them.

    War of the Prophets
    Military: War

    This devastating civil war which lasted seven years and caused the death of at least 10% of the total population of the Holy Kingdom of Katho saw two opposing camps. The first with militias loyal to the government as well as the Republic which joined the central government after the destruction of one of a human vessel by the rebels. The second camp which was called the True Faith Restauration Front, which brought together several militias who had sworn loyalty to the leader of the rebellion as well as the personal army of this said leader. The rebellion quickly gained the upper hand and even managed to take Goz only two years after the start of the revolt on Bhelgmem. This success was possible, among other things, to the military genius of its leader as well as to the support onatach who wanted to weaken the Holy Kingdom of Katho and then appear as a savior by helping the government to put down the rebellion. This would allow him to gain influence within the Kingdom and thus compete with the Republic which also wanted to put this state in its zone of influence. After this defeat, what was left of the government had to flee to the north of the territory and decided to install a line of defense to prevent the rebels from advancing further. This situation remained more or less the same until the intervention of the Republic five years later which gave an undeniable advantage to the government. The President at the time wanted to intervene at the start of the war since the Republic had discovered the maneuvers of the onatachs and considered the Holy Kingdom of Katho under it's influence. In addition, he wanted to open the Holy Kingdom of Katho more to trade with the Republic to compete with the Zelvan Council and he intended to use this intervention to request trade guarantees in exchange for Republic's intervention. However, he knew that he probably did not have enough popular and political support, even within his own party, to get this intervention passed in the Senate. The Republic discovering that the onatachs were seriously beginning to consider an intervention, since he was already supporting the official government in his fight and negotiating with him on the terms of a possible intervention. To derail the negotiations, the government passed on information regarding onatach support to the rebels, which successfully prevented an onatach intervention. However, the official government, apart from categorically refusing any onatach intervention in retaliation, did not block the essential support sent to it by the Onatach Empire and did everything not to damage to much the relationship with it, the Kingdom not being able to do without trade with this entity. This greatly irritated the Republic, which had wished with this action to limit the relationship between the Holy Kingdom of Katho, but a new fear appeared for the Republican strategists, who feared that the onatachs would intervene anyways and then impose conditions on the Kingdom government. To change public opinion, the government had revealed all the information about Onatach interference to the public and the Senate shortly after not informing the Holy Kingdom of Katho. Thanks to this, during the year 2349, the federal government succeeded in having the Senate vote for military intervention. Negotiations with the Holy Kingdom of Katho on the intervention led to an agreement around the middle of the year 2350, the preparations of the Navy staggered until the beginning of 2351 when the intervention officially began. The intervention succeeded in defeating the majority of the forces of the rebellion as well as killing their leader in two week during three major battles which made it possible to reinstate the official government. However, rebel forces who managed to flee caused trouble for another couple of months before they were definitively defeated, officially ending the civil war. This war was the trigger of a cold war between the Republic and the Onatach Empire which combined with the Western War two hundred years later.

    Battle of Xarti
    Military: Battle

    After having formalized its intervention, the Republic sends the Expeditionary Fleet which aims to retake Goz and to cut off the access of the rebel forces to the south of the territory of the Holy Kingdom of Katho to prevent the forces heading for Goz from being caught in the rear. However, to achieve these goals, the Republic needed to seize two key planets, Xarti and Bhelgmem what the rebels had anticipated. Unfortunately, despite their preparations, these could not cope with the numerical and technological advantage of the Navy which defeated the rebels in orbit of Xarti in barely a day. It is however the planetary battle which was more difficult, the rebels opposed a strong resistance to the Marine who suffered important losses. However, cut off from supply, outnumbered, having no orbital support and no air support. They finally surrendered after three weeks of fighting, the Republican victory opening the road to the capital, Goz.

    With the fall of the rebel forces in orbit of Xarti, the Navy decided to launch the offensive on Bhelgmem and this, like in orbit of Xarti, easily won the victory. Unfortunately, it was on arriving on the ground that things went wrong, even before the invasion by the Republic, the rebels had made this planet their stronghold which posed a problem for the Marines who had to face even more fierce resistance. than on Xarti. This battle was the bloodiest of the conflict, there were terrible losses for both sides. The caves that housed the kedeshi cities had the particularity on this planet of being even deeper than on Xarti, which made it difficult to take them. Conducive to ambushes, the galleries that connected the different cities, neighborhoods or buildings were also without light since the kedeshis were guided by ultrasound. All these factors meant that this battle saw huge losses for the Republic who were fighting an enemy much more adapted to this environment than these soldiers. Fortunately, after approximatly one month of bloody fighting and with the help of local loyalist forces hiding from the rebels, the Republic finally managed to take the planet. This battle allowed the Republic to definitively block the rebels' access to the extreme south of the territory, preventing them from taking back the forces heading towards Goz.

    A terrorist group seeking independence for the Espya sector from the Republic will take a ship and manage to get close enough to the surface to launch their ship at the building where the governor sits. The Republican Guard will attempt to take control of the ship, but the occupants will shut down the reactor to avoid this possibility and drop the ship in freefall while the terrorists parachute to the surface. Fortunately, the ship will be detected early enough to allow the evacuation of some of the people present in the building before the impact, particularly the governor. Unfortunately, this will not be enough to save everyone, indeed, the size of the ship and the fact that the Republican Guard preferred not to shoot it down at the risk of creating a rain of debris, which will generate a huge wave shock on impact. It will be partially absorbed by the building the ship was aiming for, but that won't stop it from being powerful enough to do some serious damage. Thanks to the partially carried out evacuation of the surroundings of the impact, the number of victims will be reduced, but the population density of the sector will very quickly increase the number of dead. In total, the attack will cause a total of 4,573 dead and several thousand wounded. Those responsible will be quickly found thanks to the tracking by the NIA of the energy signature and the origin of the minerals composing the artisanal parts of the ship.

    Intelligence report
    Miscellaneous

    The Republic learned from reports from the Military Intelligence Agency that the Onatachs had militarized the border systems of Bax, Gossok, Ajam and Dretetis in response to the fortification of the Icheon system by the Republic, which created a shock wave within of the Republic. Indeed, these systems had been left as a buffer zone by the two powers during their meeting, even if one of the two powers had these systems, they had left them uninhabited and without significant military presence. The militarization of these systems provoked a reflection of the Republic which thought of fortifying these border systems to the north and colonizing several habitable planets within them to maintain a permanent presence. The start of the Uriy Independence War, however, relegated this idea to the background. The government decided all the same to transforming the buffer zone to the north into a military zone where the armed forces can train their troops as well as test their new equipment. The military presence was increased, but the main body of the troops sent were positioned in the populated areas of the north, that is to say in the heart of the Arkanis sector, away from the border, because there were no installations for support more staff in the military zone. Finally, the government definitively closed the border with the onatachs, no vessel or citizen of the Republic was allowed to cross it from that date.

    Continuation War
    Military: War

    Having just begun the extensive exploration of its home system by the various nations that were present on the surface of the uriy home world. It was invaded by qravadox forces in 2255 which quickly subdued the planet. After more than sixteen years of qravadox domination, the different resistance movements present since the conquest rose at the same time to regain control of their planet. Taking advantage that the qravadox was occupied by a war with another unknown alien species. They quickly took the shipyards of their home planet which had been turned into a production center by the qravadox using the uriys as cheap labor. Supported in secret by the Myrrans Trade Union, which aimed to weaken by all possible means the Qravadox Empire which was beginning to gain power. These succeeded in containing the Qravadox forces at the borders of their native system, which made it possible to cut the Qravadox supply lines by isolating the territories south of their home planet. However, not having the military capacity to take all these territories, they were content to entrench themselves in their system of origin during the first year of the war. Jumping at the opportunity to destabilize their sworn enemy to whom they had never forgiven for the humiliating defeat they suffered in the Territorial War, the myrran did everything to intervene militarily. After the Ungus Crisis, officially declared war on the Qravadox Empire with the support of the Zelvan Council, officially to support the Uriy struggle for independence, but in effect to destabilize the Qravadox Empire. The Zelvan Council decided to support the Myrran Trade Union deeming the struggle of the uriys honorable and that they were unfairly attacked by the Qravadox Empire. In fact, the Zelvan Council took this opportunity to show its military prestige. The military caste which is still today is a very important faction within Zelvan society, also wanted war to gain prestige. After several major battles that took place in the Subtrianus, Kanadrius, Alcor, Courus and Iflillion systems, the Qravadox Empire surrendered. This one wanting to avoid a total disaster by losing all these forces and thus redirecting the remaining forces towards the front where his other war was taking place. The peace talks lead to a defeat of the Qravadox Empire which loses a significant portion of these territories in the south to the new state, the Free Uriy Commonwealth. This is a new independent state ruled by the uriys whose capital is Ungus, the home world of the uriys. This new state will quickly undergo internal dicension between the uriys and the qravadoxs present on the planets conquered by the Myrran Trade Union and the Zelvan Council. These tensions will lead to a terrible civil war which will tear this new state apart two years later. In the long term, the war resulted in a loss of influence from the Qravadox Empire in the south to the profile of the Zelvan Council and the Myrran Trade Union to a lesser extent. However, the Qravadox Empire recovered from its defeat in a hundred years by rebuilding its fleet, but the war discouraged this one from rubbing shoulders with the Alliance again as long as it did not have sufficient military power or new allies so that it recognized the Free Uriy Commonwealth even if relations between both entities are disastrous. The war also encouraged the Qravadox Empire to move closer to the Kingdom of the Houses of Youndarim which combined with the signing of the military cooperation treaty between the two entities two decades later. Finally, the effectiveness of the military forces of the Zelvan Council and his leadership in the coalition made him gain much influence within the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant which started to worry the Federal Republic.

    Ungus Crisis
    Diplomatic action

    While the fighting had been raging for about a year in the Camthrin System, it was known by about a year by the public that the myrrans were helping the insurgents. However, the Republic didn't like it because they feared the Qravadox would declare war the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant, and the Republic didn't want to be drawn into a conflict deemed too far away and not worth it. In order to put an end to this support, this one added to the common text of the AAQ council of 2426 a declaration which stipulated that the Alliance did not wish to intervene in the war of independence uriy to avoid any tension with the Qravadox Empire. Unfortunately, the joint declaration was not accepted by the Myrran Trade Union and the Zelvan Council abstained from voting. Despite bitter negotiations, the Republic not wanting to withdraw this paragraph and the Myrran Trade Union not wanting to accept this declaration until the paragraph is withdrawn, these did not lead to anything. It was therefore the only time in the history of the AAQ council that a common text was not published after the meeting. After the council, the Myrran Trade Union unitedly declared its intervention in the Uriy War of Independence, which triggered an immediate reaction from the Republic. She was outraged by this action and declared that she was not going to support the military actions of the Myrran Trade Union who was still afraid that the Qravadox Empire would declare war on all Alliance members which would force them to intervene. The Zelvan Council did not take a position on the issue which prevented the Republic from exerting enough pressure on the Myrran Trade Union to make it give up. The situation worsened when, shortly after, the foreign affairs adviser declared that the Zelvan Council will going to support the Myrran Trade Union militarily which definitely prevents the Republic from doing anything. The Republic being diplomatically isolated within the AAQ by its pacifist position vis-à-vis the conflict, it could only be a witness when the myrran officially launched their offensive a few weeks later. However, seeing that the Qravadox Empire had no intention of declaring war on the Republic, the latter ceased to condemn the military intervention of the Myrran Trade Union. The Republic will succeed in re-establishing good relations with the members of the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant a few years after the war, but the growing influence of the Zelvan Council within it will make the Republic adopt a competitive attitude, it will try by all means to reduce this influence. The zelvans will retain from all this a feeling of frustration, which has led to the stereotype that humans are a cowardly species.

This state also made it possible to respond to the aspirations of independence of the Uriys who were placed at the head of this new state which took Ungus as its capital, the native world of the Uriys. However, the reattachment of many territories with former Qravadox settlements where this population was the majority quickly led to tensions. These populations do not want to be under the control of a territory ruled by uriys and considering this government as illegitimate since installed by the victors of the war. These factors threatened, from the first months after its founding, the very existence of this new entity.

    Commonwealth Civil War
    Military: War

    This civil war is the confrontation between on the one hand, the army loyal to the new government put in place after the Continuation War supported by the Myrran Trade Union. On the other, the Qravadox rebel forces seeking to free themselves from this new government which it deems illegitimate to be led by a former general of the Qravadox Empire. The trigger came from several factors, the first being the feeling of humiliation of the Qravadoxs who had taken very badly the defeat of their former homeland and their incorporation into the Free Uriy Commonwealth which they did not accept. Second, the uriys, after suffering decades of violence from the qravadox, harbored a feeling of revenge that created a very strong division between their two species. Third, the new government decided to rename the planets passed under its control to show its authority, this would have the effect of making the qravadox populations of these planets very pissed off, these being attached to the names of their planets. Fourth, politicians implemented several migration policies that aimed to bring uriys to the southern planets to relieve Ungus who was very populous at the time. Indeed, the Qravadox Empire prohibited the uriys from leaving their home planet which led to overpopulation on Ungus, one of the major factors that triggered the revolt. The planets of the south only had qravadoxs which increased the already very strong racial tensions when uriys population arrive. The event that will set fire to the powder is an attack organized by a supremacist group uriy considered as terrorist, the attack will make a dozen dead qravadoxs. Immediately after, demonstrations will break out, turning into violent riots and finally into urban warfare after a week. Leading the rebellion, a former general of the Qravadox Empire managed to assemble a little fleet with civilian ships which they armed with stocks from the Qravadox Empire. This general succeeded in gathering under his banner the forces of the planets known today like Gegeporia, Kleggebore and Ugglog which he assembled for a small fleet. His military genius enabled him to win the Battle of Kanadrius against inexperienced government forces. Unfortunately for him, being cut off from Qravadox support due to his galactic position, he could not hold out for the long haul. After a year of fighting, the trend began to reverse thanks to the support of the Zelvan Council as well as to a lesser extent that of the Myrran Trade Union in expertise and equipments. Thanks to new tactics and commands which had gained experience from numerous skirmishes, the government was able to launch a widespread counterattack. After the rebels defeated at the Battle of Ugglog which saw the destruction or redemption of all rebel navy, the rebel forces disintegrated. These were defenitively defeated during the capture of Gegeporia in September 2432 where the general leading the rebellion was killed in action.

    After the civil war within the Free Uriy Commonwealth, the most Qravadox decided to flee to the Qravadox Empire. These do not want to live under a government that he considers in the pay of the uriys and which will assimilate them culturally. These migrations will lead to massive depopulation of the southern planets of the Free Uriy Commonwealth. Added to the destruction caused by the war, this region will take decades to recover. This exodus will also drastically reduce the percentage of the Qravadox population, previously accounting for 65% of the population before the civil war, they will only represent 10% at the end of the migrations. Today, they account for 5% of the population due to the population growth of the uriys.

    Treaty of Military Cooperation
    Diplomatic action

    Shortly before the Continuation War, another war broke out between the Kingdom of the Houses of Youndarim and another unknown species over different territories and trades. The Unknown Species first gained the upper hand and the Qravadox Empire decided to join the war alongside the Kingdom since they could not let the frontier territories of the Kingdom fall into the hands of the Unknown Species. It was when the Qravadox Empire began to send these forces to join the war that the uriy revolted and the events of the Uriy Independence War began resulting in the military intervention of the Myrran Trade Union and the Zelvan Council. This was catastrophic for the Qravadox Empire which did not understand how to fight on two fronts. After a few years of trying to hold back the enemy advance of the Allied forces as best they could, he decided to capitulate to concentrate entirely on the war with the unknown species. When peace was officially signed, he was then able to refocus all these forces towards the front of his other war. Thanks to several victorious counter-attacks from the Qravadox Empire and the Kingdom of the Houses of Youndarim, the two allies succeeded in bringing the unknown species to surrender. After the war, the two nations decided to begin negotiating a military agreement to counter the influence of the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant, which had grown considerably after the Uriy Independence War. The treaty who was signed after the negociation include the Qravadox Empire and the Kingdom of the Houses of Youndarim, stipulates that if one of the signatories is attacked, the other signatory must come to their aid. The other clause states that if one of the signatories wants to go to war, the other signatory must also go to war with their consent. This treaty will profoundly change the geopolitical landscape of the eastern part of the galaxy. The Myrran Trade Union, again feeling threatened by this new alliance will begin to fortify its border systems and slightly increasing customs tariffs in retaliation. However, the Myrran Trade Union was unwilling to attack this alliance for fear of losing what it had achieved so far and the new alliance not daring to attack the Alliance of Alpha Quadrant for fear of its military might. This will lead to the start of an economic war between the two rivals which continues today.

    Colonization in the south
    Population Migration / Travel

    During the Continuation War and a few decades after, the question of the colonization of the south faded into the background and the government lost interest in the matter. However, the government seeing the growing commercial power of the Zelvan Council, decided to relaunch the project to compete with the latter. Additionally, through agents stationed within Holy Kingdom of Katho, the NIA had learned that it was very likely that the onatachs had increased their military capabilities. The government therefore considered colonization as a means of ensuring a larger permanent military presence. What definitively convinced the government to launch the project was the massive support for the project of the business community which wanted to profit from the boom in economic activity of a possible colonization. The governor of the Arkanis sector was also a strong supporter of the project, as it wanted to increase the flow of goods passing through his sector to boost the economy. Finally, a psychological factor also came into play, the successful intervention during the Prophets War gave humanity confidence in its defense capabilities. This reduced these fears about the onatachs, since the politicians and the population thought that in the event of an attack, they would know how to defend themselves. All these factors made that the Senate approved, at the end of the year 2462, the plan of the government for the colonization in the south. The implementation of the plan will however take about three years, the first settlers setting foot on the new colonizable planets about eight years after the approval of the Senate.

    Western War
    Military: War

    To ensure a permanent presence in this sector of its space as well as to develop trade in the north. The Republic had begun colonization, thirty years earlier the colonization of several planets being located to the east of the Arkanis Sector and close to the Onatach border. However, the Republic was unaware that the onatachs discovered this some 20 years after colonization. As they could not bear this additional affront and being a militaristic species, the onatach government launched preparations for a surprise attack on the newly colonized area. The Republic, on the other hand, had never taken very seriously the threat of an onatach's invasion, because even if they were hostile to the Republic, they had never really provoked it militarily. This is why the defense of this newly colonized area was quite weak, the bulk of the military forces being positioned around Voga, which was in fact a much important planet than the newly colonized one. Unfortunately, that was when the onatachs decided to attack in 2520 with all their might. They began by attacking the weak defenses of the border systems which, taken completely by surprise, fell at lightning speed. The Republic, underestimating the Onatach forces, organized an orbiting defense of Ferdera, but they were completely overwhelmed by the Onatach firepower and the battle was a crushing defeat for the Republic. The onatachs then moved towards Voga and once again succeeded in defeating the orbiting defenses, but fierce resistance on the ground blocked the invading fleet in Voga's orbit. This gave precious time to the Republic who organized a counterattack a few months later which destroyed a good part of the invading Onatach fleet in orbit of Voga which allowed them to reconquer the planet. Taking advantage of their momentum, the Republic reorganized the fleet after the victory over Voga and launched an assault on the rest of the occupied territories. Their attempt was successful as far as the Trujila system, where the planet Ferdera is located. The Republican forces initially succeeded in defeating the Onatach forces in orbit and even went on to recapture the planetary capital with their ground forces. However, this was short-lived as the Onatach counter-attack took the Republican forces by surprise which forced them to retreat to the Stenlar system where a status quo took place. The two belligerents failing to break through the other's line of defense. New attempt by the onatachs to break through the Republic front line on August 15, 2523, the Battle of Icheon will end after four days in defeat for the onatachs whose momentum will be broken. Reinforcements will arrive around the third day of the battle to support the defenders which made it possible to definitively defeat the attackers. Despite this outcome, the battle will be very close since the attack took place on the least defended sector of the Republic which will result in heavy losses for it. Taking advantage of their victory at the Battle of Icheon, the Republic, with the support of elements of the zelvan Navy, after having recovered and made their preparations, launched an offensive in October 2523 to take some onatach systems and thus have a currency of exchange against concessions. The latter culminating in the Battle of Gossok on October 29, 2523, where the Expeditionary Fleet and zelvan Navy defeated the onatach fleet. However, the Joint Chiefs of Staff decided not to tackle the Ibacca system at the first sight, reports suggesting it was heavily defended and defeat would mean the loss of what had been gained so far as the other conquered systems would find themselves vulnerable. However, the latter will very quickly change his mind during the year 2524. Indeed, the system's strategic position, the fact that onatach forces constantly use it as a rear base to launch raids on occupied systems, and a desire to deal great blows to onatach morale will cause the Republic to prepare an attack to take the system. On July 11, 2524, the Battle of Oldara begins, the space battle lasts about three days and is won by the Republic and his allies, but at the cost of very heavy losses which will be even more catastrophic for the onatachs. After that, the Marine Corps will be sent to take the planet, which they will do, but only after two months of hard fighting and very heavy losses due to the fierce resistance of the defenders who will fight hard. Following its victory, the Republic decided not to continue its advance. On the one hand because she did not know the wormholes of the Ibacca system and sending civilian scientists to explore the systems was considered too dangerous by the armed forces and on the other because the latter were not ready to engage in another battle as she had just lived. Despite multiple attempts by the onatachs to recover the four seized systems, the Republic and his allies managed to hold their positions until the end of the war. With the exception of the Battle of the Ring, the rest of the war consisted of minor skirmishes close to the front line. The last battle of the war, called the Battle of the Ring, was triggered when the onatachs attempted a final breakthrough in the Republican line of defense on November 18, 2525. Fortunately for the Republic, it had stationed an important force in the system. This allowed the Republic, with his myrran and zelvan allies, to completely destroy the onatachs as soon as they came out of the wormhole. This battle completely destroyed the entire invading fleet of the onatachs which forced them to negotiate an armistice a few months later. Peace was finally signed in 2526 after two weeks of negociation, this war had heavy geopolitical consequences. Indeed, the Onatach Empire gained territory, but it lost a large part of its fleet, the Republic lost territory, but it gained almost all these engagements with the onatachs which reinforces its prestige. The Republic will also maintain a certain resentment with these allies because it judged that they had not contributed enough.

    First Battle of Ferdera
    Military: Battle

    Minor battle that saw the defeat of the Republic against the Onatach's invasion fleet, the battle lasted about a day. This defeat was a huge shock for the Navy, which had not really taken the measure of the threat until the battle, mainly because of the little information that it had gathered until. The advance had indeed been so rapid that few elements of the Republican armed forces had managed to flee and reported reliable information on the Onatachs. The Navy therefore underestimated the size of the Onatachs forces and hesitated to send part of their force guarding Voga, the result being the sending of reinforcements in small quantity without being minor. This had catastrophic results in the course of the war, as the forces in Ferdera's orbit were not strong enough to stop the onatachs. Despite their inevitable defeat, Rear Admiral Aasiya Kusari will receive the post-mortem Medal of Honor for his heroic defense which gave enough time to evacuate some of the civilians. In addition, since the reinforcements sent were still equivalent to one division, this reduced the forces present in Voga's orbit which were not, there too, not large enough to slow down the onatach advance. The defeat was a cold shower for the Navy who attempted to send reinforcements into Voga orbit, but the onatachs outstripped the Republic.

    Battle of Voga
    Military: Battle

    A major battle of the war, this battle spanned six months and caused a very large number of victims, both civilian and military. The battle began with the attack of the onatach fleet of Republic forces in orbit, the onatachs emerged victorious thanks to their numerical superiority acquired thanks to their victory over Ferdera where they destroyed Republic forces moved from Voga to Ferdera had taken positions. The survivors of the battle regrouped in the neighboring system to impose desperate resistance. Fortunately for them, the onatachs found themselves confronted with heroic resistance from Republic forces on Voga led by the Chief General Spencer Wood who held the onatachs back for six months. The rapid advance of the onatachs also created an immense problem for the supply of the fleet which was then in shortage of food, ammunition, etc ... This forced the onatach fleet to remain in orbit of Voga for the duration of the battle on the ground, on the one hand to support the troops and on the other hand to resupply and repair many vessels. This precious time gave the Republic time to reorganize the entire border defense with the onatachs and restore the fleet garding the Arkanis Sector, which had lost a good part of its assets in the initial attacks. The reorganization of the border defense also allowed the Republic to gain its first decisive victory at the Battle of Chiemeka. The victory at Chemekia and the heroic resistance of the Army on Voga restored morale among the troops of the Republican Armed Forces which decided to accelerate the preparations for the reconquest of the lost territories, particularly the planet Voga which was the main objective. After two months of preparations, the assault was finally launched on December 28, 2520 and the Home Fleet launched an assault on Voga led by the Vice-Admiral Oumar Bepanda. In numerical disadvantage, far from their native territory which caused a bad supply, exhausted by the fighting on the surface and demoralized by the defeat on Chiemeka, the onatachs were crashed in orbit. This battle was a turning point in the war, almost the entire invading fleet was wiped out and the survivors fled to Wulima to organize a defense. Left without air support by their fleet, the Onatachs on the surface resisted, but were finally defeated after three weeks of bitter fighting. The Republic will eventually push their momentum and succeed in advancing to Ferdera, but will have to retreat after the Second Battle of Ferdera.

    Battle of Chiemeka
    Military: Battle

    This battle took place in the south of the Republic, the objective of the onatachs during this battle seems to have been to repeat their success in the north by taking advantage of the distraction provided by the battle of Voga to achieve a breakthrough of the front in the sector of Gorse. Fortunately, the defenses of the sector had been reinforced after the initial attack of the Onatachs which allowed the forces of the Republic to repel them in the first place and to completely crush them after the arrival of reinforcements from the Home Fleet. All this gave the Republic an overwhelming numerical advantage when all reinforcements were dispatched.

    Second Battle of Ferdera
    Military: Battle

    The battle began with a naval engagement between the Navy and Onatach forces that ended in Republican victory through surprise and numerical advantage. After a somewhat difficult landing due to heavy enemy fire, the ground troops managed to land and take the capital after a difficult week and a half of fighting. Unfortunately, the victory was short-lived as another fleet, far superior in numbers, stormed the Navy, which had to retreat. Part of the troops on the ground managed to be evacuated urgently, but an entire division covering the retreat led by Major General Kaone Molefe will unfortunately be left behind. Despite fierce resistance and after the death in combat of Kaone Molefe, the last units had no choice but to surrender to the onatachs who took them prisoner. All the soldiers who died or were captured that day were declared heroes of the Republic by the President of the time and all received several military medals, particularly General Kaone Molefe. As for the rest of the forces, there was a general retreat to the Stenlar system which was considered by Joint Chiefs of Staff to be a better defensive position.

    New attempt by the onatachs to break through the Republican front line, the battle will end in defeat for the onatachs whose momentum will be broken. Reinforcements will arrive around the third day of the battle to support the defenders which made it possible to definitively defeat the attackers. Despite this outcome, the battle will be very close since the attack took place on the least defended sector of the Republic which will result in heavy losses for it.

    Battle of Gossok
    Military: Battle

    Taking advantage of their victory at the Battle of Icheon, the Republic, with the support of elements of the zelvan Navy, decided to prepare a major offensive to take some systems and thus have a bargaining chip during possible peace negotiations. After a few weeks of preparations, the assault was launched and the Navy forces managed to easily take the first three systems, the latter having little defense infrastructure, even if ships guarding them. The peak of the campaign came with the Battle of Gossok on October 29, 2523, where the Expeditionary Fleet defeated the onatach fleet. However, the Joint Chiefs of Staff decided against attacking the Ibacca system at first sight, reports suggesting it was heavily defended and defeat would mean the loss of what had been gained so far. However, the latter will very quickly change his mind during the year 2524.

    Battle of Oldara
    Military: Battle

    Not wanting to venture into its systems at first, fearing too solid defenses, the Republic will change its mind at the beginning of the year 2524. Indeed, the system's strategic position, the fact that onatach forces constantly use it as a rear base to launch raids on occupied systems, and a desire to deal great blows to onatach morale will cause the Republic to prepare an attack to take the system led by the Vice-Admiral Han Eun-Seo. On July 11, 2524, the Battle of Oldara begins, the space battle lasts about three days and is won by the Republic and his allies, but at the cost of very heavy losses which will be even more catastrophic for the onatachs. After that, the Marine Corps will be sent to take the planet, which they will do, but only after four months of hard fighting and very heavy losses due to the fierce resistance of the defenders who will fight hard. Taking the largest city on the planet will be the hardest, but it will be a breakthrough thanks to Colonel Mae-Noi Samenem's regiment leading the way for the rest of the troops. The battle will be the second deadliest and most imposing of the war after that of Voga. Following its victory, the Republic decided not to continue its advance. On the one hand because she did not know the wormholes of the Ibacca system and sending civilian scientists to explore the systems was considered too dangerous by the armed forces and on the other because the latter were not ready to engage in another battle as she had just lived. Despite multiple attempts by the onatachs to recover the four seized systems, the Republic and his allies managed to hold their positions until the end of the war. However, despite its technical grasp, resistance to Republican occupation will be very strong, particularly outside key centers, forcing the Marine Corps to maintain a sizable garrison to maintain order.
