History, lore and culture
Just adding to the universe, not completely necessary
Conflict, unrest and revolution
Xeno-liberation front
Founded as an answer to the UN's control and lack of equal representation amongst the many colonies the XLF was aimed at creating a rival human governmental system. After several colonies petitioned to secede from the UN and were denied the right a stand to create a new governmental agency began on MV8491 (New Alexandria). Violent protests broke out across the planet beating back UN Col-Sec forces to Olympus Station. Armed civilians outraged by their lack of a parliament seat severed most tires with the UN and began to establish a new alliance with nearby colonies. With the exception of Pacifica most neighboring planets aligned themselves with the XLF. Soon after the Petroskowitz-Heinberg alliance was signed rumors of the deployment of the 445th DSR (deep strike regiment) began to circulate. The colony went dark for several days the planet's artificial magnetosphere collapsed irradiating the surface. Several conspiracy theories arose, but without proof they fell flat. Other member planets secured their borders and prepared for a war that wouldn't come.
Revolution on MV8492 (Pacifica)
Following the total loss of New Alexandria citizens on Pacifica began to panic for their own safety creating a schism between loyalists to the UN and XLF sympathizers. Attempting to regain control over the planet the Pacifica family began aggressive martial law. The new policy outraged the populace who were already unhappy with the aristocratic government. Violent responses to the new laws were ubiquitous across the nation. During this time Maximilien Godric Erde became famous for his bold tactics as a key in the liberation of Pacifica driving out the ruling party. Rather than deploying the 445th again the UN began evacuation of the dignitaries and attempting to create a foothold. Serving as a border between UN and XLF space Pacifica was agreed to be a neural ground for diplomatic relations. During the negotiations Maximilien Godric Erde, once an asset to the people was handed over as a bargaining chip.
Earth-First Naturalists
Among the remaining religions on Earth several had objections to colonizing deep space. Among those who disagreed the most fantastically was a terrorist cell known as the Earth-First Naturalists. Founded as an anti-genetic modification organization the group gained strength and momentum as they expanded operations to include the sabotage of both UN and XLF colonies.
Conflict at Luna
As energy reserves became scarce on Earth an effort shifted to strip-mining Helium-3 from the lunar surface. Environmental conservationists, religious sects and anti-corporate organizations joined together to stop the operation. Lacking organization, clear leadership and military training the ad-hoc army conducted several disorganized strikes forcing the UN to draw on Col-Sec troops to stabilize the situation. Although most military operations were successful there were several bloody losses to UN forces.
There is more coming, so don't think I'm done just yet.
I added it later because I thought it up later based upon what the players created.
