Red Sun Republic

"For hundreds of years the Red Sun Republic has stood as a beacon of civilization and hope throughout the vast expanses of space. We have united humanity and will never cease to defend it against all enemies."

Ajan Pope, Prime Minster of the Red Sun Republic

Founding
In 2278, the Red Sun Republic was established to unite Earth's varied governments under one banner. Almost immediately, the Republic authorized the creation of the Alliance to Defend Humanity.

Civil War
First Civil War

After several hundred years of relative peace, a civil war began in 2973. Led by Dayne Redun, the Confederation of Free Planets left the Republic and declared itself an indepedent state. Although the Republic was at first opposed to such a split, public opinion turned against the war, and a tentative peace was agreed upon 2975.

Relative Peace
For almost three decades, the galaxy was at peace. At some point during this time, the Inquisition was established to find and eliminate threats before they could become as powerful as the Confederation.

War Again
Second Civil War Once Ajan Pope was elected Prime Minister in 3000, she began aggressively expanding the Republic into Confederate space. In retaliation, a Confederate strikeforce attacked deep into Republic territory. War was declared. The war was inconclusive; neither side secured a victory.

Ghost Fleet Crisis
Ghost Fleet Crisis

After the Ghost Fleet emerged from Sarendar, both Alliance and Confederate forces suffered resounding defeats. The two governments broke off the conflict and focused their energies on defence. After Terra fell into the hands of Emperor Arkus, Pope conducted the war effort from the ANS Indomitable.
