	The NSS Orchard Moon is a phoron extraction plant that also plays host to several refineries for creating [[phoron\|phoronic compounds]]. The station is situated on the border of the [[Republic of Biesel]] and the [[Republic of Elyra\|Serene Republic of Elyra]] within Valley Hale. The deposit was discovered to much fanfare in the midsts of the scarcity, and though it is not big enough to totally reverse the Phoron Scarcity, for the past several years it has been enough to keep the worst consequences of the resource shortage at bay - though it seems that time is quickly coming to an end..

	=== [[People’s Republic of Adhomai]] ===		=== [[PRA\|People’s Republic of Adhomai]] ===
	NanoTrasen has played an important role in Adhomai since its discovery; through the support of the rebels, supplying the People’s Republic with technology, and offering job opportunities to the population. The PRA is NanoTrasen’s biggest ally on the planet, with much of its economy bound to the megacorp. Corporate interests are mainly focused on obtaining cheap labor and mining Adhomai’s rich mineral deposits. Despite the prosperity brought by this relationship, many Tajara are against the megacorporation’s interference in the affairs of the Tajara people. Alongside the political crises, NanoTrasen’s presence was one of the main reasons for the Second Revolution. Even after the Armistice, the People’s Republic continues its policy of maintaining a strong relationship with the corporation. Tajara working for NanoTrasen usually have more opportunities than with other employers.

	=== [[Republic of Biesel]] ===		=== [[Republic of Biesel]] ===
	NanoTrasen holds an undisputed monopoly over the Republic of Biesel’s phoron reserves, and all newly staked deposits found under Biesellite banners. Inarguably, the outcome of this has yielded positive results; now, the Republic sits on the largest wealth the galaxy has ever known. Needless to say, previously their power within the Republic was total and without contest. While their power within the Republic is still almost total, and cracks are starting to show in what was previously an unassailable bastion. The significance of the shift from total to almost total power within the Republic can be best seen in the most recent election, where, despite having a web of influence, the [[~~hyperlink~~\|megacorporation’s favoured candidate, Joseph Dorn, lost to the Independent Ake Torvald]]. Despite the fact Torvald still had to bend the knee to Miranda to secure his victory, it shows how much the word “almost” means in terms of the company’s weakening stranglehold.

	=== [[~~Minor Synthetic Factions\|~~Ceres Lance]] ===		=== [[Ceres Lance]] ===
	Ceres Lance, an PMC dedicated to repossess, reclaim or in the worst case exterminate lost synthetics to further the agenda of their highest bidder. While previously based in Sol space (which is where they get their name), they have since recently moved within Tau Ceti, under NanoTrasen’s remit; following the brief war between Sol and TC, and the subsequent reveal of the Stellar Corporate Conglomerate. The Lance has since seen further entrenchment into the NanoTrasen umbrella as they operate exclusively under NT contracts, migrating their headquarters to the Odin. As Ceres Lance is a private military contractor, this relationship is purely professional, and NanoTrasen continues to keep them around for their unique skill set. It’s yet to be seen if the Lance will find themselves signing a more formal and permanent work agreement with the megacorporation.

	=== [[Solarian Alliance\|Alliance of Sovereign Solarian Nations]] ===		=== [[Solarian Alliance\|Alliance of Sovereign Solarian Nations]] ===
	NanoTrasen’s relationship with the Solarian Alliance is officially non-existent, after having been banned from operating within the confines of the nation’s territory after 2462. The bond between the two had always been strained at best, especially after the megacorporation’s funding of the Republic of Biesel’s declaration of independence in 2452. NanoTrasen’s continued protection of the fledgling republic garnered them little sympathy from Solarians in positions of power, especially during the reign of the [[Notable Humans\|fascistic Michael Frost]], even further dividing their relationship. Their unofficial relationship, however, is much more complex. Though they are [[KOTW\|banned from operating in Alliance space]], the Alliance still needs phoron only NanoTrasen offers now, with the establishment of the [[CRZ]] so they turn to the [[~~hyperlink to~~ Eridani ~~and its section on being the where the ASSN buys phoron~~\|Freeport of Eridani]] operating in a special jurisdiction and outside of the rest of the Alliance. NanoTrasen has shown no sign of trying to stop this trade, a stark contrast to the vengeful reaction many expected of it.

The largest megacorporation within the Orion Spur, many will find themselves doing the biddings of NanoTrasen -- be it direct or indirect.

	As NanoTrasen’s mining operations turned out to be unsustainable and the problem that had been growing quietly in the background came to light as the [[Phoron\|“phoron scarcity”]], the corporation’s power has since begun to waver as their ability to supply phoron at reasonable prices for it’s wide demand dwindled - showing cracks in their once invincible armor. They have done everything to retain their power, officially wrangling all the other megacorporations excepting [[Einstein Engines]] under a single banner of the [[Stellar Corporate Conglomerate]] with [[The Trasens\|Miranda Trasen]] serving as the Acting Director of Operations through threats, political, espionage, promises of mutual profit, and the occasional convenient death, which for the time being, has kept the company secure in their position. However, the SCC is [[Timeline\|far older than its public appearance]], and for all that time, resentment has been building up among the constituent corporations who are tired of dancing to Miranda’s tune instead of setting their own - and only time will tell if she’ll be able to keep the economy of the galaxy under her thumb.

	First were the other megacorporations. Though nominally NTs partners, NanoTrasen didn’t want to settle for still having to compete with them and their established influence within the halls of power of the [[Solarian Alliance]]. They wanted a nation-state of their own, and wanted to do what no one had been able to do before: bring the other megacorporations to heel and establish a cartel on economic activity across the Spur. To that end they twisted the Alliance’s arm into agreeing to the [[Republic_of_Biesel#NanoTrasen_Influence_and_Independence_(2410_-_2452)\|declaration of independence by Biesel in 2452]]; an act that would see their relationship with the Alliance Government sour irreparably, the Alliance would seize all the phoron mines held by the corporation outside of [[Tau Ceti]] itself, though given the limited backlash, it is likely this was part of their deal. However, with the primary source of phoron no longer under the purview or management of the [[Solarian Alliance]], NanoTrasen was able to successfully insert itself into the [[Republic of Biesel\|administration and governance of the emerging republic it had created completely.]] Whilst in recent times NanoTrasen has seen its influence wane slightly, it continues to reign supreme.
