	With the creation of colonies further afield from the Sol System and its surrounding Jewel Worlds in the later part of the 22nd century, such as [[Xanu Prime\|Xanu]] and the colonies of Tau Ceti, there was great need in the Alliance for the creation of a standardized currency usable across all of its planets and colonies. The Solarian Credit was the solution to this problem. Controlled centrally from Earth’s financial center of Chicago and tied to energy for its price, the Credit quickly rose to prominence across the Alliance during the pre-Interstellar War era where it reached its maximum extent. All human galactic currencies in significant amounts across the Spur can trace their origins to the Solarian Credit, though many have since shunned the use of the currency as a symbol of Solarian colonial rule over them.

			===2233: The Galatea Project===
			While the Solarian Frontier had been firmly established and divided into three large sectors, by the 2230s it had become clear to the Solarian Department of Colonization that the entire frontier had a weak link: a lack of easily-inhabitable worlds in the Inner Solarian Frontier, now the Weeping Stars, aside from the trade hub of Gadpathur. To counter this, the Alliance opted to launch a massive project which has to this day not been surpassed in its scale or ambition: the Galatea Project. Intended as an initiative to terraform roughly three dozen worlds into inhabitable planets similar to pre-War Gadpathur, the responsibility of designing the platforms was given by the Alliance’s government to Einstein Engines and Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals, who developed a functional design by the mid-2240s with some assistance from the Solarian Navy and Hephaestus Industries.

	Once considered to be the most important sector of the Alliance during the prospective colonial push of the late 22nd century, no region was more devastated by the Interstellar War than the Inner Solarian Frontier. This area was the subject of intense fighting between both sides during the entire War and still bears the scars of conflict even today, with many planets ruined by either abandoned terraforming efforts or the fighting itself. Few of the colonies established here survived the War intact, and much of the region is still uninhabited. The scars of war, ranging from disabled ships to entire abandoned colonies, litter this region and have long attracted salvagers to it. This region, now known as the Weeping Stars, would go on to form the Alliance Neutral Zone and would only fall entirely out of the Alliance’s influence in 2462 as a result of the Solarian Collapse.

	===Central Solarian Frontier (~~Central Coalition~~)===		===Central Solarian Frontier (Liberty's Cradle)===

	One of the most prosperous sections of the Solarian Frontier prior to the Interstellar War, the Central Solarian Frontier would go on to form the Central Coalition following brutal fighting during the War. Historical documents declassified in the mid-2300s show that the Alliance had planned to use Xanu as the center of a bold new era of colonial expansion to the Spur’s west in the late 23rd and early 24th centuries, but this was not to be. Little exploration has been carried out since the Interstellar War, either by the Coalition or the Alliance. Solarian control of this region was formally lost as a result of the ~~treaty~~ of Xansan.

	===Outer Solarian Frontier (~~Rebel’s Reach~~)===		===Outer Solarian Frontier (Liberty's Cradle)===

	Situated comfortably between the Northern and Central Solarian Frontiers, the Outer Solarian Frontier was a heavily-patrolled trade route of the Alliance prior to the Interstellar War. The Outer Solarian Frontier was spared from most of the fighting that devastated the Inner and Central Solarian Frontiers during the War due to both the dogged defense of the Coalition and the logistical strain operating this far from the Solarian Core placed on the Solarian Navy. Like the rest of the modern Coalition, the Outer Solarian Frontier was lost in the treaty of Xansan.

	===Lemurian Frontier Sector (Light’s Edge)===		===Lemurian Frontier Sector (Light’s Edge and the Lemurian Sea)===

	The Lemurian Frontier Sector was the maximum distance reached by Discovery-class probes in the southwestern Spur prior to the Interstellar War, and few large-scale efforts have been made to explore the region now known as Light’s Edge due to its lack of major stars and the longstanding rumors which surround the region. Even during its height the Alliance made few efforts to colonize planets in Lemuria due to its remoteness and poor prospects for future expansion. This frontier sector was lost by the Alliance through the Treaty of Xansan. Considered to be devoid of colonies by both the Coalition and Alliance, the reemergence of [[Assunzione]] from Lemuria surprised many observers.

	Both sides, it seemed, had recently been exhausted by conflicts. For the Federation the legacy of Glorsh could still be felt, and for the Alliance the pain of the Interstellar War was very much alive. Both nations seemed to have reached a mutual understanding due to their similar trauma and commerce would, over the following decades, steadily grow between the two nations. Solarian megacorporations, which were increasingly independent of the Alliance, attempted to gain access to the Federation’s advanced technology, but only [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]] was able to gain the access it desired. Some scholars speculate Federation technology is what started it on its path to near-total medical dominance in the modern Spur, as the Alliance did not have rules to regulate the use of such technology until the early 2400s.

			===2452: The Secession of [[Republic of Biesel\|Biesel]]===

			By 2450 megacorporate dominance of some systems, such as Tau Ceti, had become strong enough to formally challenge the government and win. In the system of [[Biesel\|Tau Ceti]] NanoTrasen, which had subverted the already-corrupt government of the system by 2450, opted to formally have its proxy declare independence in 2452. The Alliance mobilized to stop it but found its economy held captive by [[Nanotrasen]]’s dominance of the phoron market, which many sectors relied entirely upon. Thus, the Alliance found itself forced to sign the Tau Ceti Accords in 2452, which formally broke Tau Ceti off from the Alliance These treaties were seen as a humiliation by much of the Alliance and contributed greatly to the rise of far-right fringe groups, such as the Hopper-inspired ATLAS, over the following decade. Tau Ceti itself saw a notable population decrease as the remaining non-NT businesses and their affiliates fled for the broader Alliance, and some speculate its renowned xenophilia is a result of this brain drain.

			The bitterness of the Tau Ceti Accords has yet to leave Solarian society even over a decade later.

			===2460-61: Michael Frost Ascends to Power===

			The later events of 2462 would, in the eyes of many academics, be impossible without the events of 2460. Imprisoned following his bloody attempted invasion of Tau Ceti in 2458, former Admiral Michael Frost was assumed to be a disgraced man by the civilian government who had been stripped of his connections to the broader Navy and fringe figures in the political establishment, who were then assumed to be a political minority group of little influence. But what the Alliance’s civilian government and administrators did not know was the extent to which Frost’s influence, and his cronyism, had influenced the Navy. The facility he was held in was in effect a gilded cage he could leave at any time, and hardliners in the Navy along with ATLAS, a now-illegal far-right Solarian nationalist group descended from the philosophy of Terrence Hopper, began to plot his escape.

			In mid-2460 the Sol System was rocked by the news of an apparently massive pirate attack which had raided and plundered the Solarian Naval Maintenance, Regeneration, and Repair Facility (SNMRRF) in Uranus’ orbit, making off with dozens of military-grade hulls. Frost, in the ensuing chaos and panic, escaped and rallied a fleet of loyalists to his cause, eventually destroying the pirates and returning to Sol to a hero’s welcome. The former naval officer found himself pardoned of his crimes and ascended to the position of Prime Minister at the helm of a majority-ATLAS government, effectively forcing all other political parties from power.

			The Frost administration, which ran from 2461 until his assassination in 2462, was arguably the spark which lit the fire of the Solarian Civil War. Frost, eager to please the Naval hardliners and fascist elements which had brought him into power, created an obscenely corrupt government which suppressed dissent by force using Marines, Navy military police, and ATLAS paramilitaries. Known for their brutality and corruption, these paramilitaries formed the backbone of the Frost regime’s forces. Corruption caused already-present issues, such as Navy inefficiency, to begin spiraling out of control over 2461 and 2462. Outlawing and disbanding ATLAS in early 2462, which by that point was hated by much of the Alliance and responsible for thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of injuries both at profests and in custody, did little to suppress public outrage against Frost which his regime responded to with further brutality which caused further corruption due to Naval takeovers of government offices which caused more unrest, creating a self-fulfilling ouroboros of decay.

			With this environment heading into 2462 it is perhaps unsurprising what resulted.

	To this day the Interstellar War remains the most devastating conflict in Galactic history, with millions of Solarians and billions of Coalitioners dead and both the Coalition and Alliance left in economic ruins after its end. The Interstellar War is rightfully viewed by many nations as the defining moment in the history of the modern Spur as it crippled the Solarian Alliance’s ability to control its corporate actors, while also ending its expansive colonial ambitions, causing it to eventually lose the entire Solarian Frontier outside of the three rings of the Solarian Core. It additionally brought an end to some of the Alliance’s most ambitious ventures due to economic hardships and territorial loss. Furthermore, it led to a dramatic uptick in interstellar crime due to the reduction of naval forces as a result of both combat losses and desertions.

	Many have waxed polemically regarding the “what ifs?” of 2275-78 and ponder as to what a modern Spur united under the Alliance’s flag would resemble. Would the Coalition struggle regarding its infrastructure, due to no longer lacking the gates made during the Warp Project of the 24th century? Would [[Empire of Dominia\|Dominia]] have been stabilized by the Alliance, preventing the destruction of [[Fisanduh\|Fisanduh’s]] democracy by the Empire’s autocracy? Would it have protected the Elyran Coalition against its long-standing issues regarding its neighbors? Would the [[Unathi]] and [[Tajara]] have prospered under the stewardship of the hegemonic Alliance rather than being exploited by powerful corporations which destroyed both of their homeworlds? And what of Tau Ceti, now ruled by corporations and becoming an overextended empire of its own?

	~~But such things are more the realm of fanciful dreams than reality.~~
