Coalition

The Coalition was initially an alliance between FOXCBM, ULSCI, and KAX that formed as a result of the SCI Summer War. This alliance, despite having a common goal, was plagued by infighting, paranoia, and extreme war-weariness caused by the long-lasting SCI War.
== Beginnings==
===SCI Summer War===
The Coalition was not a concept until after the war, however was known as the FOX-ULSCI-KAX alliance during the war. This time period was when all member factions began migrating to Discord for use as a means of communication, as it was far superior in comparison to Steam DMs.

Main Article: SCI War
The Coalition was rather stable prior to the SCI War (Known as the C.G.I. War by Coalition member states). C.G.I. did become a member, however diplomatic relations eventually collapsed and exploded into a full scale armed conflict on SCI Sandbox. On February 14, 2018, infighting in the Coalition nearly caused its total collapse, remaining as an example for why people should not take Gmod factions too seriously. LARP-esque attitudes ran rampant in the Coalition, which was a major contributing factor in its instability during the SCI War.
===Paranoia===
Infighting was enough, but the crippling paranoia only served to make matters worse. This was the first time the Coalition member states had to fight a conflict against another large faction, and thus were highly paranoid of spies infiltrating their Discord server. The leaders of the Coalition became extremely authoritarian, believing any subtle criticism from anyone could mean they were a spy. 
===FKAP===
The Federative Kingdom of Anthropomorphic Peoples was a member state of the Coalition that did not last very long. A fight ensued with the leaders, with its leader Elias making an insulting remark towards Baccio's German ethnicity. Following this, FKAP was booted from the Coalition, and soon it dissolved, eventually Elias revived the Germanian Kaiserreich, and would serve to be the main antagonist for the Coalition and its successor, the Eagle Initiative.
== Rebel War ==
The Coalition encountered various microfactions sprouting up to contest the Coalition's grip on SCI Servers in the immediate aftermath of the SCI Summer War. Primarily on SCI #1, Coalition forces frequently clashed with militias over control of the server up until the beginning of the SCI War.
During this period of insurgency, the ULSCI and FOXCBM developed their own unique weaponry to address the need for a technological edge against opposing microfactions. Both factions had very different approaches to this. Due to the absence of Advanced Duplicator 2 on SCI, the ULSCI favored technology that could be produced on the field with as little time and resources as possible with a few exceptions. Many of these creations were impromptu and usually experimental with varying degrees of success. The ULSCI's brute force approach was vastly different from FOXCBM's standardized method of development. FOXCBM designed sophisticated and purpose-built technology to provide more precise strikes against enemy units. The ULSCI frequently criticized FOX's technology for its difficulty to reproduce in game, and for its very niche purposes.

==Dissolution==
===End of the SCI War===
Following the end of the war with C.G.I., the Coalition was being supported by a pair of crutches. Initially, this time period would have been used to repair and improve, but subversive forces would put this to an end. Le Chiffre, a former ULSCI member, slowly convinced Phil that FOXCBM was attempting to become the dominant force in the Coalition. Phil already had a very bad opinion of the alleged warmonger Viper (because he frequently threatened to declare war during arguments), the leader of FOXCBM, so it was not hard to convince him that he was trying to stomp the ULSCI in influence. After reaching a breaking point, the ULSCI banned FOX members from the Coalition discord. Diplomatic relations were attempted, but eventually collapsed and led to the Coalition Civil War.
After the ULSCI was mostly victorious in the battles against FOXCBM, peace was eventually made. Le Chiffre was then chased out of the Gmod meta after both leaders realized the truth behind the cause of the collapse. The Coalition was no more, but soon both leaders formed the Eagle Initiative to take its place. This alliance was almost no different than the Coalition, plagued by paranoia, infighting, and now a lack of technology.
