Trying to RP it is all well and dandy but you're going to get bored real fast with nothing to do. No amount of trade, shooting, base building, or any other tangible ingame activity is going to do anything in getting you to that point. Sitting around talking to everybody constantly won't last long, I can promise you that.
The Blood Dragons, Xenos, Hellfire Legion, and other such factions have one of those "unachievable" (I use the word in quotations because I'm not actually a fan of player actions not affecting things) goals as well, but it makes sense to reach those goals by interacting in gameplay. A group like your's would have nothing to do, since the only way to go about it would be to force political leaders to sit down and talk to each other.
You're free to try it if you want, but don't say I didn't warn ya that you're in for an eternal bore.

I appreciate the concern, realy but who said about no shooting? In order to achieve the unification we of course must see that the Houses stay alive, right? B| They're no use if they're dead, which we will fight together with them as allies. As you've seen Gallia has made quite a dangerous move towards the Houses, the Coalition activity increased, Nomads maybe aren't that much around, but that "sitting down and talk" one is only something for the House representatives guys. Be aware that the rest of the members ain't gonna do the talkings, they're going to do the other objectives that needs to be done. The House representatives, are only 5 People, the faction itself is made of around Freelancers like I mentioned already. Those Freelancer fullfill their duty inside this faction. So basicly the "serious talkings" will be made by those Representatives, while the others take care of the other things they have to do, Nomads, Coalition, Gallia and those who try to interferre the process, disturbers. Thank you for the reply though, much appreciated! Of course we will find stuff which wont get us bored and wont hold us back in activity. Trust me, I'm good in this B| , even a simple escort mission might turn out very interesting!

Yeah.. We're considering sending them blankets infested with alcoholism due to just outright killing them not working too well.
Anyways, good idea as I've said. Still taking an outside role advising, ridiculing, picking apart your logic with comically large tweezers, etc. Should be interesting watching what comes out.
When considering that your objective is to unite the Houses, you do realise that Gallia is also a House and a member of the Alliance?
Keep in mind that the moment you ally with any one house, your relationship with all of the other houses is implicitly affected - and negatively with at least one other house.
I think they're against Gallia because Frace felt itself betrayed by the Alliance, back in Sol, and now Gallia is attacking the Alliance...well, it's attacking Bretonia, with the purpose of taking revenge on the Alliance. That's what I understood, at least.
Of course, they can still be on good terms with the Council. They're the "good" frog-eaters.

We do, that's why Council seems more reasonable for this, however, the Council didn't fully take over Gallia yet and the GRN has simply a full hatred towards the whole alliance, all of the houses. For now we have to wait what happens to Gallia in order to make any decision about its future with us.
This pic is just for the lulz looks pretty awesome x) :
please be aware that "SASF|" is just a name-holder till rollback, till we've found something else if needed.

The Council isn't fighting for Sirius - just for the people of Gallia.
This has been already mentioned from one of our Members, even if the Council would fight for the people of Gallia, it seems to not seek revenge on the Houses anyway. As you can see and as I've mentioned above, Gallia's situation is unclear, so there wont be any representative of Gallia, for now we aim for the first 5 Sleeper Ship Houses, Liberty, Kusari, Rheinland, Bretonia, Hispania. Anything else is out of question for the time beeing.

In theory, it is. You've got a monarch who wants to conquer Bretonia and, probably, Liberty too, and a republican faction who just wants Gallia to have good relations with whatever remains of the Alliance, and that doesn't includes rampaging through the Taus and Bretonia and, recently, Magellan. Ok, principally for Gallia, ofc, yay for patriotism, but for Sirius, too, indirectly.
I believe the Kingdom of Gallia would fall sooner or later, because of one major factor:
GRN cannot be everywhere.
Now imagine that Gallia owns about 50% of Sirius, now what? Kingdom should really try to ease their new subjects. Else there would be a lot of rebellions, guerilla fights as an addition to already going conflict, perhaps with Rheinland-Liberty combined fleet. Gallia isn't USSR, which was lucky enough to not to have the real second front during WW2 or even a major rebellion in the middle of the country.
Now some history. As you remember, Japan decided to attack USA (Japan got pissed off because of Ribbentrop-Molotov pact, as the sidenote). Mutual attack of Japan and Germany would just destroy USSR in 1941 and even later years, because there wasn't enough forces to fight on two fronts in the same time. Add the matter of distance, too.
Same would happen with Kingdom of Gallia, I believe. It's just impossible to fight and keep territory on two war fronts for a longer period of time.
