States and Geography of Human Space

The Intervention has fundamentally redrawn the map of human space, weakening many, or even most of the former great powers and pushed smaller colonies, nations and corporations to the fore. Guerrilla resistance has also left much of humanity in a state of lawlessness and disorder, prey to pirates, terrorists and guerrilla bands, many of whom are left over from the fight against the aliens.

In general, power has shifted away from Earth and it's inner colonies and into deep space.

The Asian Alliance

The Asian Alliance, encompassing China, India, Japan, United Korea, ASEAN and various other, lesser states is Asian are Earth's one remaining super power after the massive destruction caused by the Intervention. With alien fleets pouring out of Earth's jump gates, India and China, the world's greatest powers, together with their neighbours put aside their differences to defend Sol and the inner colonies.

When their fleets began to falter, the Asian Alliance was the first brave enough to take the traditional refuge of a power that cannot defend its self with normal military options and launch a full scale nuclear attack on the combined alien fleets and their bases and fortresses deployed within Sol, freeing the system though at great cost.

The Asian Alliance sees its self as the most advanced and progressive power in human space, with a liberal policy on genetic engineering, cybernetics and computer science (though these are mostly products of the stresses of the intervention) and excellent art, science and aesthetics.

The Alliance's military spearheaded the deployment of specialist craft in the war, and continues to innovate in military tactics, experimenting with battlecruisers, heavy frigates, and mass use of small craft and mobile weapons.
