The Solar Pact is an alliance of four human superstates and free cities, whose premise is the absence of armed conflicts in the solar system and surrounding areas, and the obligation to protect it in the event of an external threat. Despite the existence of the pact, the superstates do not maintain good relations with each other. Espionage, sabotage and battles for resources and strategic territories are commonplace. The still existing risk of a full-scale war has forced all sides to relocate their capitals out of the solar system. Current headquarters is located in the free city of Geneva on Earth. From there, the pact's military affairs are managed by important strategists and officials of all factions.
