United Federation of Defense [UFD] - Organizations

History

Formation and Early Days (2945-2955)
The UFD was founded in 2945 by a coalition of organizations in response to the rising threat of piracy. Recognizing the need for a coordinated defense, these groups pooled their resources to protect civilian lives and interests in the Stanton system and beyond.

The Vanduul Incursions (2955-2965)
During the mid-2950s, the Vanduul raids intensified, prompting the UFD to expand its operations. Our forces played a pivotal role in defending against these incursions, safeguarding numerous outposts and civilian transports from destruction.

Rebuilding and Expansion (2965-2980)
With the Vanduul threat temporarily subdued, the UFD turned its focus to humanitarian efforts, aiding in the reconstruction of devastated colonies and fostering alliances with other star systems. This period saw significant growth in our membership and capabilities.

Modern Challenges (2980-Present)
In the current era, the UFD continues to adapt to new threats, including rogue AI and outlaw factions. Our mission remains unwavering: to protect the innocent, uphold justice, and ensure peace across the galaxy. Join us and be part of a united defense force dedicated to a safer future.
