Kal Federation

Template:InfoboxNationThe Kal Federaion is a country spanning over a large portion of the Sheol Galaxy. The Kal Federation is the largest polity present in the galaxy, occupying an area larger than even many polities in larger galaxies such as those in Via Sagittaria Galaxy. In the past, it was an associate state of the Confederacy of Borealis but has since mostly cut ties in favor of a more distant relationship with its neighbors. It is made up almost entirely of the Vlanoan species. To this day, the Kal Federation is one of the comparatively few nations to form in the Sheol Galaxy whose inhabitants naturally formed there.

The origin of the nation can be traced back to the first Vlanoan Coalitions dating back to the thirtieth millennium CE. These coalitions were always loose governments only vaguely uniting only small portions of the Vlanoans at the time. As time passed, the Sheol Galaxy began becoming more and more crowded with other nations, almost all of which were foreign in origin. In particular, the nation of Sagittarium very aggressively laid claims to large portions of the galaxy, often subjugating large numbers of Vlanoan nations as its military occupied the galaxy. After Sagittarium's democratization in the 40,000's CE, it gave all of its former colonies independence as well as forming a Commonwealth with them called the "Sphere of Former Imperial States." The majority of the Vlanoan nations accepted entering the Sphere. From there, the Vlanoans formed yet another coalition, this time uniting the entirety of their species under the name "United Vlanoan Republic." This nation remained at the forefront of Sheoli politics well into the 80,000's CE; it had both the largest military and economy in the region. The War of the Ancients, greatly destabilized the nation to the point of near total collapse. It pulled out of the war effort halfway through the war because of a rebellion which eventually became a civil war. In the end, the rebellion was put down, but it became apparent the government was desperately in need of change. In 89,091 CE, the Vlanoans reorganized themselves into the modern Kal Federation.

The Kal Federation is a great power in the Sheol Galaxy and is nearing the status of superpower, which it should achieve sometime after 101,000 CE. It remains as the largest economy and military presence in the Sheol Galaxy, taking advantage of the large amount of trade which flows through Sheol. It has pacts, agreements, and treaties with almost every external superpower with interests in Sheol, most of which dictate trade terms.

History

The Vlanoan Civil War, as it had become known, began during the War of the Ancients in 88,422 CE. It began as the nations resources became increasingly stressed. It was not only devoting large numbers of military units to the war effort but was also sustaining damages from a comparatively small number of Quintet forces. The damages motivated large numbers of the populace to began calling for an end to the war and mass reform of the government.
