Introduction

The Zoner Alliance(ZA) are a independant Zoner Group that have become a military entity.

Many of its members came from all over Sirius, from all walks of life and has made them able to be flexible in all aspects of Sirius life.

Historical Information

817 A.S.

The Zoner Alliance(ZA)started simply as a normal zoner group, trading and exploring the stars.

As time progressed they did extensive construction within Omicron-74, building five large stations and also constructing a new Sigma-17 freeport.

818 A.S.

Two of the constructed bases were rushed into construction to ensure the security of Omicron-74; against Nomad ships that raided shipping constantly.

The Order and Phoenix(Zoner Faction) contested this construction after it became apparent, that the Zoner Alliance had had success in defending against Nomad incursions and rogue Corsairs.

Following their continued aggression towards the Zoner Alliance, the first war began with the Zoner Alliance heavily outnumberd (5:1 ratio)against the Order, Phoenix and OSI.

After several days of heavy fighting and needless losses, peace was declared with certain agreements.

The Zoner Alliance now thought peace had come and they could continue without taking up arms again.

However this was short-lived as a new threat emerged.

The Artificial Consensus at first started on friendly terms with the Alliance. But after they suffered several setbacks against other factions, losing several installations against hostile forces they turned bitter and twisted. Their programming became erratic and over time they turned on the Alliance and became its most bitter enemies.

With the help of another Zoner group they grew bold and invaded Omicron-74 with the goal of destroying the Alliance.

When this occured the Order then used this as an excuse to launch their own assault, once again on the Alliance. The Order has made many claims about the Alliance, calling them Nomad infected and even though no real proof or even a glimmer that this allegation is true has come to light.

The Battle rages on, with many losses on both-sides and no end insight.
