The Galactic Alliance of Humankind also known Galactic Alliance or Galactic Alliance of Humanity or Galactic alliance of Mankind is the government that rules the human space colonies.

History[]

The Alliance is believed to be the direct descendant of the Continental Union. The CU was directly opposed to a group known as the Evolvers, the predecessors of the Hideauze. When Ledo finds the ancient lab and reads the records, it is revealed that Evolvers were looking to escape from Earth's upcoming ice age. At the time, there was no way for anyone to survive a long trip in space, so the Evolvers' solution was to genetically alter themselves to be able to live in space without the need for oxygen. This was opposed by the CU due to what were considered unethical/illegal experiments the Evolvers had been preforming, which resulted in large-scale battles between the two sides. Eventually, the CU created a wormhole gate in order to escape Earth and planned to leave the Evolvers stranded on Earth, but the Evolvers took the gate. Both factions escaped Earth and the CU eventually became the GAH.  The great Emigration vessel Avalon was eventually constructed and would become the Alliance's "homeland", home to 470 million people.

In the closing hours of the War, the Alliance led a large-scale attack against the Hideauze which fails, resulting in near total losses among Alliance Naval forces and disproportionate losses among Machine Calibers, Ledo fought in this battle and was left behind and fell into the wormhole back to Earth so far away it was approximately 6500 light years to the closest known Galactic Alliance base according to Chamber.

Eventually, the Alliance led one last attack, sending everything they have (even Avalon itself was deployed). The battle ended with a massacre among alliance forces, and the wormhole destabilizes, pulling a severely damaged Avalon back to Earth, which proceeded to restart the sun, resulting in earth becoming an oceanic world. Avalon crash-landed, and the survivors split into two land nations due to conflicting ideologies, resulting in the end of the Alliance.

Military[]

The Alliance armed forces are comprised of multiple branches, the Machine Caliber Corps and the Alliance Navy are two known branches.

The Alliance Navy focuses on ship-based warfare, armed with a myriad of different types of ships to fight the Hideauze, while the Machine Caliber Corps serve as infantry, going up close in heavy combat with Hideauze forces with heavy casualties.

Starships of the Navy consist of the following:

Power Type Destroyer

Power Type Destroyer

This class of ships is descended from the Destroyers used by the Continental Union, armed with two emitters that create a ball of energy that is unleashed as a beam. Mass-produced in large numbers and serving as the frontline warships of the Alliance Navy
Shield Type Destroyer

Shield Type Destroyer

An advanced class of ships based on the design of the Power Type, using the same hull configuration but the emitters are modified with shield generators that create a series of rotating/still magnetic rings of energy that deflect weapons fire, this class of ship was designed somewhere into the war between the Hideauze, the Alliance's response to the Carrier class fighters.
Battleship Type

Main Battleship

The heavy warships of the Alliance navy, the battleships are slightly bigger than its destroyer cousins, armed with two retractable fixed heavy turrets, and served as the main source of firepower in every naval formation.
Assault Support Craft

Assault Support Craft

They are essentially the space variant of a landing boat and are used in the hundreds to carry Machine calibers, they are entirely unarmed and require the protection of Shield destroyers as escorts, every ASC is able to carry a full company of 120 machine calibers and possess two large arms to assist damaged MCs in battle.
Carrier Type

Carrier Type Capitalship

The Crown jewel of the Alliance Navy, extremely huge at approximately 20km long, while unarmed they possess 24 launch tubes for ASCs and 44 launch tubes for Quantum bombs, the interior houses two extremely large interior hangers connected to several landing bays, repair crews, and medical personnel usually swarm the place in the aftermath of battles.
Quantum Dimensional Nuclear Ordinance

Quantum Dimensional

Nuclear Ordinance

Large-scale heavy explosives built and used in the hundreds to destroy Hideauze structures and other targets throughout the war, armed with Quantum Dimensional based nuclear warheads inside with enough yield to destroy a moon-scale structure, several hundreds of them are enough to destroy an earth size structure, in that case, the Hideauze hive. the QDNO is fully completed with propulsion systems, four large foldable arms, and four slots for machine calibers serving as escorts.
Hexelena Special ship

Special Weapons Ship

The Alliance's special superweapon, built after countless research and testing in an attempt to create a quantum superstring singularity weapon of mass destruction, only six of such ships exist due to how insanely costly it took to built them.

Policies[]

In the Alliance, people who are ill and unable to fight are often sent into space where they inevitably die. Citizenship is given to soldiers after 145,000 hours of service, after which they are allowed to visit Avalon for a few weeks.

Anyone who rejects the Alliance is considered to be Drifters.

According to Kugel, the knowledge of the truth behind the fact that Hideauze used to be humans is only known to the higher-ups in the GAH.
