Independent Worlds

Running between the Confederacy and Mitikas Empire are a number of independent worlds and star systems. Each system, and inhabited planet within, has their own government, own set of laws and foreign policies.

Whilst many of the worlds are stable and enjoy good relationships with other Independent Worlds, the Confederacy and Empire, some are classified by the Confederacy as "rogue worlds" due to spawning many terrorists and insurgents. Many criminal organisations have also originated from independent worlds.

Foreign policy has been known to create friction between independent worlds, the Empire and the Confederacy, causing many political and military clashes up and down the galaxy (including between the Empire and the Confederation as an indirect result).

Some worlds have established themselves as popular holiday resorts, attracting visitors and holiday makers from all over the galaxy. Mythos, a perpetually sun soaked planet, and Tigibel, with its multitude of snow cover mountains, are two very popular destinations.

In response to the need to form better relationships with one another, and also to better present their position to the Empire and the Confederacy, the IWC and United Naval Forces were born.

In the early 27th century Imperial Adam Lorenzo began granting independence to a number of Imperial star systems, many of whom were believed to have been swallowed up during the early expansion of the Empire. This is believed to have been the first steps towards the start of the Imperial Civil War.
