Overview

The Coalition of Colonies was on the decline well before it truly fell in 2452, giving rise to piracy and general lawlessness in the Frontier. Some planets, however, saw the need for continued cooperation and remained connected in an effort to protect their borders.For six long years they worked tirelessly to keep each other safe, pooling vast amounts of manpower and resources together. Finally, in 2458, the Alliance saw its borders safe.

Population

Due to the ever changing nature of the Frontier Alliance, an exact population is hard to pin down. Estimates, however, put the number somewhere around 2,500,000,000 people currently protected by the Frontier Alliance Defense Pact.

Overall: Defense and Trade Alliance

System by System: Varies dramatically, from republics to monarchies to communist parties, but the systems all agree to have representatives meet on the unofficial capital, Xanu Prime. Some systems have representatives for both military and civilian sectors, others have joint reps. Some systems elect these representatives, others have competitions, while some yet give the job to the person who can speak the clearest.

The Frontier Alliance does not care how each system governs themselves, they only ask that each system respect one another and honor the pacts during the time of a crisis.

Xanu Prime

Effectively the 'hub' of the Frontier Alliance, Xanu Prime is one of the most populated and wealthiest planets in the Frontier. The many representatives and officers of the Alliance meet on Xanu Prime to discuss new treaties and strategies to protect their section of the galaxy. It is the homeworld of Chief Representative, Carter Han, and the site of a major victory against piracy.

Relationship with Freedom

The Frontier Alliance has strong ties with the Free Frontier Association group of the Freedom party, but the Frontier Alliance itself does not condone any radical actions against other governmental bodies, even the Sol Alliance. Freedom party members found committing violent acts in the name of the Frontier Alliance are labelled traitors to the Alliance. Still, the Alliance suffers criticism for alleged funding of Freedom extremists and its lax investigation into Freedom activity.

Frontier Alliance Military

The Frontier Alliance Military is unlike most militaries in the galaxy. For the most part it resembles a backwoods militia of people without uniform using outdated weaponry to defend their homes. In an attempt to have the galaxy take the Frontier Alliance more seriously, the Chief Representative has pushed forward the notion of a uniformed military. This idea has been rejected, as Alliance forces are too varied and many planets provide their own uniforms, even if they are as simple as similarly coloured shirts and matching armour types. The Chief Representative then pushed for a standard emblem to be accepted. This is still being worked on.

The Frontier Alliance's military fights a defensive game for the most part and only engages offensively if they know they have overwhelming numbers. They are not equipped with the most advanced ships or the best weaponry, but they are able to mass produce weapons, armor, and starships in staggering quantities. They have access to small quantities of combat RIGs and combat exosuits, and it is not uncommon for Frontier Alliance soldiers to retrofit industrial RIGs and Ripley APLUs for combat.

If a force were to attack a single Alliance planet, it is deemed as a threat to the Alliance as a whole. The current nature of the defense pacts has led to complications in which single planets within the Alliance have picked fights with other non-Alliance planets, forcing the aid of their allies in order to win a war. The wording of the defensive pacts are being revised to disallow such actions.


Technological Supplier

The Techno-Conglomerate provides most of the tech used by the Alliance, especially its military. The Techno Conglomerate keeps its own force known as "The Thunder Legion". This force is very well equipped, and it is believed these soldiers could easily match a standard Sol Marine detachment. It is commonly believed that Legion soldiers receive genetic modifications, but the Techno-Conglomerate has refused to comment on such allegations.

The Conglomerate is a flotilla of advanced ships whose community keeps itself together with a strong desire to understand the ever changing nature of technology in the universe and how to better incorporate it into humanity. They were driven from Sol to the Frontier for their beliefs in genetic and cybernetic augmentations. They are also supportive of synthetic life, and accept IPCs and other synthetics into their communities as equals. It is currently unknown if they are willing to aid synthetics in relocating from hostile locations into the Conglomerate Flotilla. Despite its close connection with the Frontier Alliance, the Conglomerate is very willing to trade with other galactic bodies, except for Dominia.

Economics

Official Currency: Colonial Dollar

Accepts Union of Sol Credit: Yes

Standard of Living: Varied, mostly low. Some worlds enjoy rather high qualities of living, while others are quite poor and have little access to modern tech or resources.

Societal

Ethnic Groups:Due to the nature of the Frontier, it is impossible to really divide ethnic groups properly. The Frontier holds a variety of humans from all groups. It comes down to individual systems or planets for which groups would be more prevalent.

Religion: Secular; Religious Freedom; Variety of Religions

Sub Races

TBD

History

The Coalition of Systems was founded to resist against perceived Sol Alliance oppression in the Frontier, and won their independence from Sol after the First Interstellar War. They suffered highs and lows until eventually collapsing in the year 2452, only two years after enacting the “Anti-Dominia Piracy Pact”. With the Coalition disbanded, pirates went nearly uncontested and gained much ground in the Frontier.

With the Coalition gone and pirates gaining more ground than ever, the Frontier became a rough place to live. Many systems once belonging to the Coalition fell, but some resisted the pirates, setting up blockades and working together to form safe trade routes. For six years these systems fought a defensive campaign against the pirates threatening their borders. In 2458, the Allied Systems made a trade agreement with the Techno-Conglomerate, a trader and transhumanist organization, to get much needed supplies as well as access to shipyards and weapon factories far more advanced than anything currently in the Allied System's space.

With this more advanced technology the Allied Systems drove the pirates back from their corner of space. These systems then came together and formed the Frontier Alliance, with the primary goal to rid the frontier of piracy.


Current Times

The Frontier Alliance is a budding group, an alliance of systems working together to defend one another from outside threats. They do not have a true form of centralized government, nor a standard form of government. Still, representatives from each system work together to keep their people safe. Toward the beginning of 2460, the Frontier Alliance struck a series of victories against the pirate force, the Wrecked Kings, and liberated several key telecommunication hubs throughout the Frontier. This gave the Frontier Alliance better ways to communicate with its systems and a way to communicate with the galaxy at large.

Currently, the Frontier Alliance is acting on a "Live and Let Live" policy with the other galactic powers. They are still rebuilding from the collapse of the Coalition and understand causing issues with any of the existing powers could prove fatal. Still, that does not mean they are unwilling to criticize the other powers.
