The Zagorian Systems Conglomerate (Today just called the Systems Conglomerate is a rather large alliance of systems in the South Gold Sector previously known as the Zagorian systems,who are largely dominated by corporations

History

Beginnings and Background

The Zagorian systems of the southern Elkossian Empire had always been a somewhat detached group of colonies that maintained their autonomy from capital. Several of the planets in these systems were also unusually rich in resources which would constantly make them a target in the eyes of the Capital's industrial sectors. These planets would be mined and stripped of resources, and very little of the benefits would see their way back to the southerners. If it hadn't been for the Peach war of R.2011, there might have been a rebellion in the south.

During and after the Peach war, Elkoss was devastated, and the Zagorian systems enjoyed a brief period of true independence. Although this wouldn't last. By the time the post-war succession struggle had ended on Elkoss, the new Galacian Republik would re-enter the south and "annex" the short-lived Zagorian Republik after a few skirmishes and pitched battles.

Tensions reached a boiling point in R.2016 After James Lahey was elected President of Galacia, and at the time, his cheif Military leader, Marshal Shulga enacted a plan to modernize and grow the Galacian army and navy, at the expense of the Republik's resource rich south. Planets were stripped bare, and colonists were subjected to almost indentured servitude conditions while they mined materials and built weapons. The unrest culminated in what was known as the Oplot uprising, the very moon of Galacia's capital was attacked by a Southern nationalist insurgent group called NAPA (NAtional-PArty). While they were eventually defeated, NAPA caused unprecedented amounts of destruction and humiliation to the Republik, and ultimately created a distinction of "Us vs them"

Effects of the Bakhacha Coup

For much of R.2016 and R.2017, Zagoria became a occupied police state, Zagorian rebels had become a serious threat to the stability of the Republik, and as much as a quarter of the Now Massive Galacian military was dedicated soley to fighting these rebels, however everything changed after the Outer Haven Incident. Shulga deposed Lahey, who later died. And the Galacian Republik was effectively cast out and replaced by Shulga's despotic Galacian Imperiya. Something then happened that no one would have expected, Under the leadership of Lahey's daughter Sarah, many "Republik Loyalists" who stood for demokracy, fled south and joined forces with the Zagorian Rebels.

Days later, as the Arhus Crisis escalated, and threatened to pull the entire western arms into a war of unfathomable scale, Shulga's Imperiya suddenley and unexpectedly signed a peace treaty with the Rebels, granting them their independence. At the time it looked like the Arhus Crisis was sure to escalate into full scale war, and Galacia and it's allies needed all available forces to commit to the frontline.

The price of Freedom

The Maripol Treaty established an immediate ceasefire between Imperiya and Rebel forces in the southern front of the Gold Sector conflict. As well as an exchange of territory, The generally accepted leader of the Zagorian Republik, President Bardak surrendered two colonies in exchange for peace, and recognition from their enemy. This caused a split within the faction, The Moderates were happy with peace, but many Nationalists and the Lahey Loyalists saw this as a "job not finished". Making things worse was in the chaos of the territory swap, the Galacian right wing nationalist group Cherhovna Bryhada first swept into the DMZ established by the treaty, and were then kicked out and invaded Zagoria proper. With many of the Republik's best troops abandoning the army or otherwise going rogue having been displeased with the results of the treaty, the remaining Zagorian Defence Forces were woefully unprepared for a counter-insurgency operation against the fully militarized Bryhada

USA Saves the Day

After months of fighting a losing battle against insurgents, and becoming a laughing stock of both the Gold Sector and the Western Arms, President Bardak pleaded for assistance at the AN, To which sympathetic politicians in the USA responded by lobbying to send a relief force into Zagoria to fight the Cherhovna Bryhada, and now also the Pirates and Criminals of the Syndikat. Operation Harvest Red was that rescue plan, and the USA swiftly routed the Bryhada and Syndikat in 3 weeks. Afterwards, Several USA companies and corporations began establishing relief efforts to rebuild Zagoria. The Zagorian government was naieve enough to believe this help came free, when secretley, the corporations had been dealing with the Disgruntled Demokratic Nationalists, and when the time was right, elections were rigged and the corporate lackey Rick Marshall was elected president.

Marshall Government

Zagoria after the election, would be re-packaged to the galaxy as the "Zagorian Systems Conglomerate" a faction that was the very embodiment of USA style "Freedom" and Marshall's new plan was to eventually re-open hostilities with the Imperiya, who were propagated as Authoritarian, almost communist Tyrants. Behind the scenes however, the Corporations, banded together and formed their own council to run their very own country. The "Zagorian" part of the moniker so fell out of use as Zagorian nationalism became less and less prevalent in the ambitions of the country as a whole. To the SC it didn't matte r where people came from as long as they worked for them.

The Conglomerate still largely functioned as many other countries did, in fact almost identical to that of the USA, but in reality their agenda was strictly to service the egos and ambitions of CEOs and businessmen, it's military force, originally comprising of freedom fighters, rednecks and rebels fighitng for the ideals of Liberty, Honor , Justice and the restoration of Demokracy, became incredibly polluted with mere Mercenaries who were loyal only to the next paycheck

The Rebel flag is still used by Zagorian Nationalists, particularly in the West Zagorian systems where tensions are still hot after the treaty

Organizations and Groups

Military

Confederate Army The Confederacy claims to be it's own sovereign star faring empire with at least half a dozen colonized worlds. And thus it maintains it's own defense forces. The majority of the Confederacy's military is ground based as it cannot hope to go toe to toe with the Loyalist navy, The Rebel army is not a unified force, while their equipment and training is relatively of similar quality, full divisions and larger formations are led by commanders that are essentially warlords, some having entire planets to themselves and others forcing to share and sometimes fight amongst themselves

The Confederate Army make use of a mix of locally produced equipment, and some captured from loyalists. their soldiers are usually tough fighers, and fight with the incredible tenacity and zeal that comes with being outnumbered and outgunned. Rather than using a wide range of specialists like the Galacian Ground Forces, Confederate troops usually train in the use of many different weapons, and when special weapons or equipment are needed, they are brought into the battle and most troops are reasonably competent with them. While their training is less formal, their equipment is sometimes of inferior quality, and they generally are not able to field as many troops as their loyalist opponents, Rebel troops often can hold their own against Galacian regulars in small to medium fights. It is only in heavy artillery that they lose. The Confederacy fields some of the same vehicles that the Loyalists do, but in much lower numbers. Overall the common regular ground force for the rebels focuses on a mix of hit and run and tenacious defensive tactics.

Rebel Soldier - The standard equipment troops of the Confederacy, carrying a rifle and grenades

Rebel Armored Soldier - Troops in heavier armor

Tank Hunter - Anti tank using an array of captured and home built rockets

Veteran soldier - Experienced troops who carry better equipment and employ better tactics

Sniper - Deadly snipers carrying long range high powered rifles

Commando - Special Forces operatives

Flamer - Pyromaniacs that burn out entrenched units and destroy structures

Confederate Officer - Field commanders, usually far from the fight

-Zagoria is small Republik of systems in the south of the Gold Sector. Originally an Elkossian colony, it saw several wars against it's capital between R.2009 and R.2017 before finally being granted independence from the Home world.
+The Zagorian Systems Conglomerate (Today just called the '''Systems Conglomerate''' is a rather large alliance of systems in the South [[Gold Sector]] previously known as the Zagorian systems,who are largely dominated by corporations
 ==History==
-===Beginnings===
+===Beginnings and Background===
-Dating back to the period of initial Star Colonization by the [[Elkossian Empire]] in R.2005, The ancestors of the Zagorian systems were dissenters who fled Elkoss in a mass exodus, unlike the other sanctioned colony "seeder ships" that were sponsored by the government.
+The Zagorian systems of the southern Elkossian Empire had always been a somewhat detached  group of colonies that maintained their autonomy from capital.  Several of the planets in these systems were also unusually rich in resources which would constantly make them a target in the eyes of the Capital's industrial sectors. These planets would be mined and stripped of resources, and very little of the benefits would see their way back to the southerners.  If it hadn't been for the Peach war of R.2011, there might have been a rebellion in the south.
-As with all of the "Seeder Colonies", isolation from the Home world and it's immediate colonies led to Zagoria developing it's own culture and government. Effectively independent from the Elkossians.. They were met by travelers from the [[Brittanian league]] and [[United Systems Alliance]] who traded with, and sent small numbers of immigrants to assist with the harvest of the vast amounts of resources in the region.. By R.2010 However, the Elkossians had found Zagoria and opened communications,  By now most in Zagoria had forgotten and stopped caring about the homeworld, and when the words "Reunification" and "Reclamation" started being thrown around,  The Zagorian Systems went into panic mode. Some fled, most protested,  and some prepared to defend themselves.
+During and after the Peach war, Elkoss was devastated, and the Zagorian systems enjoyed a brief period of true independence. Although this wouldn't last. By the time the post-war succession struggle had ended on Elkoss, the new Galacian Republik would re-enter the south and "annex" the short-lived Zagorian Republik after a few skirmishes and pitched battles.
-Most of the seeder colonies had accepted the invitation to unification, unlike Zagoria.   Sturgia and Mozorova were the only other exceptions,  and even Sturgia promised to surrender to Elkossian rule if they recieved assistance in defeating rival Mozorov. The Zagorian systems saw themselves exempt from this circumstance but it was questionable if they were going to be able to resist a takeover.
+Tensions reached a boiling point in R.2016 After James Lahey was elected President of Galacia, and at the time, his cheif Military leader, Marshal Shulga enacted a plan to modernize and grow the Galacian army and navy, at the expense of the Republik's resource rich south.  Planets were stripped bare, and colonists were subjected to almost indentured servitude conditions while they mined materials and built weapons.  The unrest culminated in what was known as the Oplot uprising,  the very moon of Galacia's capital was attacked by a Southern nationalist insurgent group called NAPA (NAtional-PArty). While they were eventually defeated, NAPA caused unprecedented amounts of destruction and humiliation to the Republik, and ultimately created a distinction of "Us vs them"
-===Annexation of R.2011===
+===Effects of the Bakhacha Coup===
-months before the Great Peach War would engulf the entire Empire,  The Elkossian empire had already landed "Police" forces into the major colonies of Zagoria.. growing tired of the Southern refusal to submit to capital rule, the Elkossian generals prepared to crack down and seize control of the "Government" buildings. Unwilling to enter a war, the few "Official" military forces the South had were not deployed, however civilian and paramilitary groups were not about to back down.  After several armed attacks by Sepratists, the Elkossian units stormed the planetary capital buildings. During the confusion, several Zagorian elected officials were killed and injured in the melee of the State House. The Capital forces feared that through their killing, they had started a war. The Southerners begrudgingly surrendered not wanting further destruction of their colony. The R.2011 Crackdown ended with only a few hundred killed on either side, but it sowed the seeds of an intense hatred of the Capital Systems minifigs by southerners, and the dead became Martyrs to their independence movements.. There would have been a proper insurrection had it not been for the Peach War that swept across the entire sector a few months later.
+For much of R.2016 and R.2017, Zagoria became a occupied police state, Zagorian rebels had become a serious threat to the stability of the Republik, and as much as a quarter of the Now Massive Galacian military was dedicated soley to fighting these rebels, however everything changed after the  [[Outer Haven Incident]].  Shulga deposed Lahey, who later died. And the Galacian Republik was effectively cast out and replaced by Shulga's despotic Galacian Imperiya. Something then happened that no one would have expected, Under the leadership of Lahey's daughter Sarah, many "Republik Loyalists" who stood for demokracy, fled south and joined forces with the Zagorian Rebels.
-===R.2011-2014===
+Days later, as the [[Arhus Crisis]] escalated, and threatened to pull the entire western arms into a war of unfathomable scale, Shulga's Imperiya suddenley and unexpectedly signed a peace treaty with the Rebels, granting them their independence. At the time it looked like the Arhus Crisis was sure to escalate into full scale war, and Galacia and it's allies needed all available forces to commit to the frontline.
-During the Peach invasion of the Elkossian Empire, Zagoria was a province of the Elkossian empire and fought on the side of the Capital, it was largely ignored by the Peaches, The West and Central provinces were the most targeted.
+===The price of Freedom===
-At the conclusion of the war, Elkossian Remnant forces struggled to hold onto control of most of the Cluster as a whole, Not just Zagoria.  Meanwhile on Elkoss, devastated by Nuklear war, remnant government cells fought off raiders, savages, and each other for claim to the keys to the Empire.. remnant factions known as the Enclave and Dominion would be the last ones facing off, with the former emerging victorious.  The provinces of Strenza, Slavonia and the home province of Galychna reformed into a singular rump state, known as [[Galacia]], At the time Galacia was very weak, and when it attempted to re-assert control over the Empire. Volhinya, Mozorov, and Zagoria put up armed resistance, in the time that Capital law was absent, Colonies in the outskirts had declared themselves independent.
-===R.2015===
+The Maripol Treaty established an immediate ceasefire between Imperiya and Rebel forces in the southern front of the Gold Sector conflict. As well as an exchange of territory, The generally accepted leader of the Zagorian Republik, President Bardak surrendered two colonies in exchange for  peace, and recognition from their enemy. This caused a split within the faction, The Moderates were happy with peace, but many Nationalists and the Lahey Loyalists saw this as a "job not finished". Making things worse was in the chaos of the territory swap, the Galacian right wing nationalist group [[Cherhovna Bryhada]] first swept into the DMZ established by the treaty, and were then kicked out and invaded Zagoria proper.  With many of the Republik's best troops abandoning the army or otherwise going rogue having been displeased with the results of the treaty, the remaining Zagorian Defence Forces were woefully unprepared for a counter-insurgency operation against the fully militarized Bryhada
-In the Wake of the Peach war, most powers in the cluster were still very weak,  The Galacians had captured most of Zagoria with little opposition as they still possessed a superior ground and naval force.  Only the colonies in the systems of Kolorad, Maripol and Zaphor remained in control of the South and even then, these Galacians were pushing into their cities the same way the Elkossian Empire had been, with sheer intimidation of the Civilian populace, With the Southerners only offering light resistance and an unwillingness to fight, However after a group of radical paramilitary forces loyal to the south executed what would later be called the "Oplot Uprising" where Southern agents executed a series of bombings and heavily armed guerilla attacks on The Galacian Capital's moon, Oplot causing mass destruction to industrial infrastructure and causing general mayhem, this show of force emboldoned the south and showed that the Galacians could be beaten. At this time Southern warlords started to raise paramilitary outfits to defend their colonies, and with covert aid and intelligence from Brittanian Sympathisers, they took back a few of the Colonies in the south. Proclaiming their territory an independent star republik of Zaphorzia-Graznovik.. although it would still be called Zagoria by some.. This republik was short lived however, After the Galacians had defeated the Communist Mozorovans, R.2016 would spell the end, again.
-===R.2016-2017-===
+===USA Saves the Day===
-Once again, for what seemed like the third time, Capital based forces rolled into the southern colonies, smashing the resistance through sheer force.  Zaphorzia-Graznovik was wiped out by the Galacians,  and the entire region was uncerimonisously stripped of it's name "Zagoria" and given the name "Yugalatz" literally South Galacia... and Once again it became an unwilling puppet of an Elkoss based empire. However this was the final straw, During the Galacian re-armament program, despite being given ample funding by the then President Lahey, Army Marshal Alexander Shulga robbed the resources of the south for his military development projects and extorted citizens of the region for money. Shulga became a universally vilified character in the south, and when he staged a coup and took over Galacia, the south instantly became the heartland of resistance and rebellion to restore democracy, Not only would the South consist of angry Zagorians, but now angry, pro-democratic Galacians fled to the south and proclaimed the "Confederacy of South Galacia", However due to so many conflicting and competing Warlords and proto-governments all over the south, It would be known by many names, "The Confederacy" referred to the alliance of several smaller colonies, and "South Galacia" was a universally accepted term because that it was "South" of Galacia. Zagoria wouldn't cut it this time as they were just one of several peoples  in the Greater Galacian demographic now
+After months of fighting a losing battle against insurgents, and becoming a laughing stock of both the Gold Sector and the Western Arms,  President Bardak pleaded for assistance at the AN, To which sympathetic politicians in the USA responded by lobbying to send a relief force into Zagoria to fight the Cherhovna Bryhada, and now also the Pirates and Criminals of the [[Syndikat]]. [[Operation Harvest Red]] was that rescue plan, and the USA swiftly routed the Bryhada and Syndikat in 3 weeks. Afterwards, Several USA companies and corporations began establishing relief efforts to rebuild Zagoria. The Zagorian government was naieve enough to believe this help came free,  when secretley, the corporations had been dealing with the Disgruntled Demokratic Nationalists, and when the time was right, elections were rigged and the corporate lackey Rick Marshall was elected president.
-With their numbers bolstered by volunteers, defectors and covert foreign aid, as well as considerable amounts of stolen and captured equipment the rebels carved out a small chunk of territory for themselves in the South and began fortifying their worlds and installing massive amounts of space mines and anti-ship batteries in outposts all along the established frontline.  With so many troubles abroad as well as outside of the Empire, the Galacians would be able to commit the forces to hold the frontline, but not push it forward. With the exception of the Colony "Tusk", the Soutern theatre of the [[Galacian Civil War]] was limited to small skirmishes by space ships, and occasional ground invasions on worlds where the border defenses had been nullified.
+===Marshall Government===
+Zagoria after the election, would be re-packaged to the galaxy as the "Zagorian Systems Conglomerate" a faction that was the very embodiment of USA style "Freedom" and Marshall's new plan was to eventually re-open hostilities with the Imperiya, who were propagated as Authoritarian, almost communist Tyrants.  Behind the scenes however, the Corporations, banded together and formed their own council to run their very own country. The  "Zagorian" part of the moniker so  fell out of use as Zagorian nationalism became less and less prevalent in the ambitions of the country as a whole.

-In Q4 R.2017, The Imperiya surprisngly agreed to a peace treaty, granting the rebels full sovereignty in exchange for a territory swap. However [[Cherhovna Bryhada]] Immediately began attacking Zagorian cities, plunging them into another war.

-The Conglomerate is the catch-all term used to refer to the corporation that succeeded Haliat-Armali. based in the Zaphor system on it's own space station, the Conglomerate is a multinational supercorporation that handles large amounts of foreign capital as well as dozens of rare element and mineral mining subsidiaries. and is responsible for development outside the Gold Sector, it's contributions at home are suspiciously limited. The Conglomerate essentially makes capital by dealing with outside companies and governments, and then funnels vast sums into propping up the Confederate Government and it's military, behind the curtain the Confederacy is in many ways, really just a puppet corptocracy
