However, the surrounding area kept attracting more Shwuunic colonist who settled in other worlds such as Ishuun, Omuun, Ekaru and Kuulkar. All of this worlds grew in power and importance in the region they settled. All what this worlds had in common was the Shwuunist religion and it's proximity so they began to form alliances to defend their local and religious interest towards foreign powers.
They fought a brief war of independence against Anuur for independence that ended with the creation of the alliance. Once more, some conflict arose within the Shwuunic Alliance as well, but it was quickly solved. Then the Shwuunic Alliance was threaten by the growing Lorship of Nuur and soon after, decided to join the Nuurian Federation and became a state.
