Overview
​

In the year 2476, the political climate is hot. Mankind,

under the rule of The Terran Federation, has spent the last four centuries colonizing The Sol System; from the dry sands of Mercury to the ice sheets of Pluto. But, the Terrans couldn't have done it without the help of a very special scientist: Rüdiger Von Strauss. In the year 2050, the man invented the Light Drive, which made travelling from Earth to Pluto as fast as a plane flight from London to Tokyo. This advanced humanities knowledge by centuries all at once and deepened its thirst for expansion beyond the Moon. And, now, the colonized worlds' unrest is beginning. Rebel groups started popping up recently and, without warning, destroying satellites and Federal Outposts, killing innocent civilians in the process. One such attack, orchestrated by the Jovian Union of National Extremists (JUNE), was the tipping point for all out civil war.


On August 1st, 2476, an organized

assault was launched by JUNE on Europa station, orbiting the planet Jupiter. The Federation had no choice but to declare Martial Law among its colonies, which couldn't have resulted worse. Piece by piece, sections of the Sol System started to break off into their own governments. The Jovian Alliance was formed, consisting of Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus, along with their moons. The Kuiper Belt Union, consisting of Pluto and it's many neighbors in the Kuiper Belt, was the second group to be formed. Following them, the Colonized Asteroid Belt broke off and formed a ring of pirate fleets that travel the System. Without the order and the peace that once was, how was the human race going to make any progress? It couldn't.

The worlds of The Sol System are now in a deadlock, where no further progress is possible and the interlocutors feel less sure of their beliefs than they had at the start.

The Terran Federation
​

The Terran Federation is the greatest super

power in the history of mankind. It boasts the strongest military, the biggest economy and by far the most territory, at least until recently. The Terran's where the ones that began the slow colonization of the Sol System, a journey that took them well over four centuries to complete. And alas, when their plan had just come to fruition, their vassal states began to rebel and attack their property without warning.

Although, they did have good reason for this. The Federation was known as a crude and corrupt body. The leader of the Federation, Admiral Diana Malor, rules with an iron fist. She's known to be a fierce leader, but her military strategy is unparalleled.

Slavery wasn't only allowed, but it was recommended that those with higher social status purchase a servant. Robot servants exist as well, but few android systems can accomplish the same level of work that a sentient man could. Free trade is outlawed, and all transactions are monitored by the government.

Most citizens of The Federation try to find a job in the military and slowly but surley work their way up the ranks. Those that are rejected usually either sell themselves into slavery and spend their days on Earth or move to one of the mining colonies on Mercury or Mars to work in the Ore Pits or Venus to work at the Gas Purification plants.

The Jovian Alliance
​

The Jovian Alliance separated from the Terran Federation

on August 3rd, 2476. The Governors of the Moons of the Gas Giants Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus formed an alliance to protect their people from the harsh rule of Admiral Malor and her Federation. They formed the Council of Six consisting of Europa and Io of Jupiter, Titan and Enceladus of Saturn, Triton of Neptune and Oberon of Uranus. The Council was formed to promote peace and equality among the Sol System.
