Nest Of Orion

The Nest of Orion (abbreviated as N.O. and NoO) was a political and military alliance consisting of Nova Fleet Dynamics, Thryn Monarchy and Trident Industries.
== Description ==
N.O. factions were very protective of each other and smaller factions, often going out of their way to protect others. Their vessels were dangerous in combat, and their engineering was often top-notch. When an NO-aligned warship passed by a neutral system, the inhabitants were reassured they were under the protection of the mighty Nest of Orion.
== History ==
The Nest of Orion started in late June, 2315. The leaders of the three largest 'good' factions, Flying Debris of NFD, Azereiah of Thryn, and Jake Lancia of Trident, came together after determining the need for a 'peaceful' and 'protective' alliance.
There was one battle between multiple factions of Nest of Orion and Cobalt Royalty, which the Nest of Orion fleet won handily. Shortly after the rest of the Nest of Orion fleet departed, CR forces returned with reinforcements and assaulted the Thryn homebase a second time, which resulted in the Thryn forces being either destroyed or forced to retreat. Thryn forces later had some minor skirmishes with Kha'ak Fleet leader Komatodik.
Internal conflict between members of the Thryn Monarchy and Nova Fleet Dynamics led to Thryn distancing themselves from the rest of NO, until eventually the desire to take a more aggressive political stance and be totally independent of any other factions led to the Thryn Monarcy departing from the Nest of Orion. Trident Industries later followed for other reasons.
The internal conflict eventually tore the alliance apart, causing it to dissolve.
== Legacy ==
The increased co-operation and technology sharing practiced within the former Nest of Orion eventually gave rise to the NFD-Trident merger, resulting in Trinova Technologies.Category:Alliances
