Orivesi Federation

#REDIRECT Second Orivesian Republic
Orivesi Federation is not a faction, but a server defense group stationed on Apex Networks. 
== More Information ==
There is a lot of information on the Federation, but not all of it is to be shared.
=== Recruitment ===
The Federation recruits in a mixture of quality over quantity, but also not having an entirely strict recruitment. Most of the Federation's members are meta veterans, including its own leader. 
=== Technology ===
The Federation's technology is limited to what its engineers & allies can create/provide. It is generally behind on technology compared to most older factions, but has a fair amount of engineers populating it.
=== Reputation ===
The Federation may not have been around for long, but it and its leader have made a questionable but laughable reputation due to the fact that both the leader and the group have changed/been changed many times.
=== Focus ===
The Federation aims to focus on further developing it's technology & gathering more skilled members, along with making/strengthening alliances. It's current member-count is classified, but it is generally gaining members at a faster-rate. 
==History ==
Due to a very beneficial alliance, ENG33 decided to merge with AL6B under the name of Horizon Combat Initiative. It declared itself an official faction on 7th May, 2021. 
=== LOC Merge ===
Due to the Low Organization of Creeps (LOC Mercs) having a slowly-falling start-up, Chad Thundercock approached the LOC leader, Loc128 about merging LOC into H.C.I - he accepted, due to the fact that H.C.I was bigger and more successful. They both were mainly PMC's (Private Military Companies) and roughly shared the same views.
=== Merge War ===
Due to Chad approaching the leader of Alpha Imperium, Grey515 with a bad offer to merge A.I into H.C.I, an outbreak of war between everyone VS A.I almost happened. Grey threatened H.C.I with war if H.C.I didn't cut ALL connections to A.I, leading to a DM group of 10 GMAP leaders/members including Chad, CatGopher, Ally for Hire, Grey, and many more to negotiate the war. Most of GMAP didn't agree that threatening war was right on A.I's part, but did agree that Chad gave the most garbage deal ever. Although one person, Cryic - who was leader of the Valkyrian Ascendancy, which has H.C.I as a Protectorate State, did "state" that they would accept the deal if they were A.I, although this was not very reasonable deal and nobody in their right mind would ever accept it in the way it was said. As tense negotiations and many, many pings and headaches ensued, a deal between H.C.I and A.I was made - where there would be NO war, but NO alliance either. Rumours of a raid on H.C.I's home server, Apex Networks was brought up but was never confirmed.
=== Declaration of Independence ===
The H.C.I had been a protectorate under the Valkyrian Ascendancy, but that didn't last for long. Soon after on May 14th, 2021 the VA withdrew from the GMAP - IA war, and stated that H.C.I was no longer a protectorate. Later that day, Elias & Contractor came up with a deal which was similar to the one between NG & GPR. Contractor joined GPR & NG in a private server, inspected much of their equipment, then one of H.C.I's members, Cap joined, then a battle of insults and build-mocking ensued between Elias & Cap, resulting in Cap being banned and Cap accusing Elias of stealing his tank, which there was no real proof of it, due to Contractor being AFK at the moment cap was banned. After a long argument between Cap, Elias and a few others in one of the discords, Contractor put down the deal, and declared H.C.I being eternally independent. Soon after, Contractor brought the final name change up with his other high commands, and they decided to change it to the Orivesi Federation and remain independent forever. 
=== First Battle as OF ===
OF & ACA battled KRS & TTN on the Super Gmod server, May 14th, 2021. The TTN leader, Big Grin, kill-binded many times, which just upped their death count. Gen. Alexander & Contractor were the OF on Super, while Scooty and many other ACA were also on. The TTN members were Flying Wings & Big Grin. It was a long fight, with KRS pulling out & TTN persisting for most of it, but they too pulled out. OF & ACA then claimed victory and made the victory public. 
=== Final Reformation ===
The Federation announced it's final reformation from a Faction to a Server Defense Group based on Apex Networks. It no longer fully participates in wars/attacks, and only fights for and on it's home server.
