Collective of Nist

A defunct minor state of Halcyon Sector with its capital at Nist (1616 Halcyon). During the civil wars the systems of the Nist cluster declared themselves to be collectively neutral and drew up a treaty of cooperation. They retained a number of large warships and a powerful army, largely drawn from the heavily populated world of Haden (1515 Halcyon), which helped to assert their position. Further defense treaties and economic agreements bound the worlds closer together and in 3400AD, at the end of the civil wars, they declared as a separate and independent state.

The state was never much more than a fractious trading union governed by an Inner Council drawn the leadership of each world. Each member system retained a great deal of local autonomy and internal squabbles and politicking were common, but together they thrived. The Collective signed an economic and trade partnership with the New Republic in 3619AD, and in 3638AD, following a series of referendums, it joined in full union with the New Republic to form the Grand Ascendency.
