	===2462: The Solarian Civil War===		===2462-65: The Solarian Civil War===

	~~The Solarian Civil War has become~~, ~~alongside~~ the ~~Interstellar War~~, ~~one of the defining events in the history of the Orion Spur. While many view the Collapse as the result of~~ the Violet Dawn catastrophe ~~on Mars~~, the ~~truth is far more complicated~~. ~~It is~~ the ~~result~~ of ~~decades, if not centuries,~~ of ~~mismanagement by~~ the ~~Alliance following~~ its ~~defeat~~ in the ~~Interstellar War. It is the result of megacorporations ballooning in power after the Interstellar War~~ and ~~meddling in the affairs of nations~~ which ~~are meant to regulate them~~. ~~It is the result~~ of ~~a Navy which long concerned itself with past glory rather than current realities. But above all, beyond all other factors,~~ the ~~Civil War is the result of corruption. Corruption at a massive, intergalactical scale which~~ was ~~fueled~~ by ~~mismanagement~~, by ~~the Navy, by corporations, and by the simple desire to enrich oneself at the expense of one’s neighbors~~.		With its roots in decades of neglect, the Frost administration, and the Violet Dawn catastrophe, the Solarian Civil War threatened to break the Alliance’s unity forever. Multiple systems defected to either the Coalition of Colonies or Republic of Biesel and the central government lost control over much of its remaining territory in the Northern and Southern Reaches, which collapsed into post-Solarian warlord states. Much of the Alliance’s military either defected or was rendered inoperable by losses, reducing its overall strength by roughly half.

	~~Now~~ the Alliance, ~~reduced to only its Jewel Worlds~~ and ~~its most loyal adherents, must work its way back to~~ a ~~shadow~~ of ~~what it once was~~. ~~The goal~~ of the ~~Alliance~~, which ~~once ruled~~ the ~~Spur~~, ~~is now~~ to ~~simply reclaim~~ its ~~borders~~ of ~~2462 rather than 2259~~. ~~Gone are~~ the ~~days~~ of the ~~long~~ shadow, and ~~here are~~ the ~~days~~ of ~~desperate survival~~.		As conflict in the “[[Human Wildlands\|Wildlands]]” — a common nickname for the post-Solarian Northern and Southern Reaches — raged, some groups stayed loyal to the Alliance, such as Visegrad in the south and San Colette in the north. Between 2463-64 low-scale conflicts in the south around Visegrad saw a partial reemergence of de facto Solarian control in the region with the defeat of Biesel’s proxy forces. In the north the situation became increasingly unstable as the Alliance struggled to root out sympathetic allies of the Solarian Restoration Front (SRF), which sought to overthrow the Alliance’s government, and support San Colette. Major purges of Navy officers in 2465 spurred the SRF to finally launch an invasion of San Colette for its phoron strategic reserves, triggering the final phase of the civil war. By fall 2465 the SRF and the nearby League of Independent Corporate-Free Systems, a Coalition proxy, were both totally controlled by the Alliance. The civil war had come to an end after millions of deaths and untold billions in economic damage. The Alliance was united once again, and the Reconstruction Mandates were formed to assist in recovery.

			===2466 - Present: Elections and Prime Minister Hendrik Strom===

			The 2466 - 67 Solarian election cycle was the first truly democratic election in years and came in the shadow of the civil war, and the authoritarian rule before it. After a hard-fought campaign between multiple parties, Senator Hendrik Strom — a major figure in the transitional government during the civil war — became the Alliance’s first prime minister since Michael Frost’s death in 2462. A populist, Strom’s administration has seen a strengthening of the Alliance’s support for the Mandates and reopening of diplomatic ties with Biesel.

	A mostly uncharted region until first contact was made with the skrell, no colonization efforts were made by the Alliance in the Roanoke Stars due to the region being — according to data from their probes — almost totally lacking habitable worlds. Whether this lack of data was due to deliberate manipulation by skrell who did not wish to be discovered or the aftermath of Glorsh’s atrocities is a subject of debate among many Solarian historians.

	With the creation of colonies further afield from the Sol System and its surrounding Jewel Worlds in the later part of the 22nd century, such as [[Xanu Prime\|Xanu]] and the colonies of Tau Ceti, there was great need in the Alliance for the creation of a standardized currency usable across all of its planets and colonies. The Solarian Credit was the solution to this problem. Controlled centrally from Earth’s financial center of Chicago and tied to energy for its price, the Credit quickly rose to prominence across the Alliance during the pre-Interstellar War era where it reached its maximum extent. All human galactic currencies in significant amounts across the Spur can trace their origins to the Solarian Credit, though many have since shunned the use of the currency as a symbol of Solarian colonial rule over them.

			===2233: The Galatea Project===
			While the Solarian Frontier had been firmly established and divided into three large sectors, by the 2230s it had become clear to the Solarian Department of Colonization that the entire frontier had a weak link: a lack of easily-inhabitable worlds in the Inner Solarian Frontier, now the Weeping Stars, aside from the trade hub of Gadpathur. To counter this, the Alliance opted to launch a massive project which has to this day not been surpassed in its scale or ambition: the Galatea Project. Intended as an initiative to terraform roughly three dozen worlds into inhabitable planets similar to pre-War Gadpathur, the responsibility of designing the platforms was given by the Alliance’s government to Einstein Engines and Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals, who developed a functional design by the mid-2240s with some assistance from the Solarian Navy and Hephaestus Industries.

	Once considered to be the most important sector of the Alliance during the prospective colonial push of the late 22nd century, no region was more devastated by the Interstellar War than the Inner Solarian Frontier. This area was the subject of intense fighting between both sides during the entire War and still bears the scars of conflict even today, with many planets ruined by either abandoned terraforming efforts or the fighting itself. Few of the colonies established here survived the War intact, and much of the region is still uninhabited. The scars of war, ranging from disabled ships to entire abandoned colonies, litter this region and have long attracted salvagers to it. This region, now known as the Weeping Stars, would go on to form the Alliance Neutral Zone and would only fall entirely out of the Alliance’s influence in 2462 as a result of the Solarian Collapse.

	===Central Solarian Frontier (~~Central Coalition~~)===		===Central Solarian Frontier (Liberty's Cradle)===

	One of the most prosperous sections of the Solarian Frontier prior to the Interstellar War, the Central Solarian Frontier would go on to form the Central Coalition following brutal fighting during the War. Historical documents declassified in the mid-2300s show that the Alliance had planned to use Xanu as the center of a bold new era of colonial expansion to the Spur’s west in the late 23rd and early 24th centuries, but this was not to be. Little exploration has been carried out since the Interstellar War, either by the Coalition or the Alliance. Solarian control of this region was formally lost as a result of the ~~treaty~~ of Xansan.

	===Outer Solarian Frontier (~~Rebel’s Reach~~)===		===Outer Solarian Frontier (Liberty's Cradle)===

	Situated comfortably between the Northern and Central Solarian Frontiers, the Outer Solarian Frontier was a heavily-patrolled trade route of the Alliance prior to the Interstellar War. The Outer Solarian Frontier was spared from most of the fighting that devastated the Inner and Central Solarian Frontiers during the War due to both the dogged defense of the Coalition and the logistical strain operating this far from the Solarian Core placed on the Solarian Navy. Like the rest of the modern Coalition, the Outer Solarian Frontier was lost in the treaty of Xansan.

	===Lemurian Frontier Sector (Light’s Edge)===		===Lemurian Frontier Sector (Light’s Edge and the Lemurian Sea)===

	The Lemurian Frontier Sector was the maximum distance reached by Discovery-class probes in the southwestern Spur prior to the Interstellar War, and few large-scale efforts have been made to explore the region now known as Light’s Edge due to its lack of major stars and the longstanding rumors which surround the region. Even during its height the Alliance made few efforts to colonize planets in Lemuria due to its remoteness and poor prospects for future expansion. This frontier sector was lost by the Alliance through the Treaty of Xansan. Considered to be devoid of colonies by both the Coalition and Alliance, the reemergence of [[Assunzione]] from Lemuria surprised many observers.

	Both sides, it seemed, had recently been exhausted by conflicts. For the Federation the legacy of Glorsh could still be felt, and for the Alliance the pain of the Interstellar War was very much alive. Both nations seemed to have reached a mutual understanding due to their similar trauma and commerce would, over the following decades, steadily grow between the two nations. Solarian megacorporations, which were increasingly independent of the Alliance, attempted to gain access to the Federation’s advanced technology, but only [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]] was able to gain the access it desired. Some scholars speculate Federation technology is what started it on its path to near-total medical dominance in the modern Spur, as the Alliance did not have rules to regulate the use of such technology until the early 2400s.
