The Military Alliance
less powerful now than they once were
The Military Alliance is an organization that rose to power during the war. Most of its soldiers hailed from Baalphoria, and as such, their government generally held the most power in the decision-making. Many of the Free Colonies joined the Alliance in order to gain more information on advanced Baalphorian technology, causing strain between the two halves.
A decade after the war, the Alliance still exists, although its power has greatly diminished.
