Sol Unification

Also known as the 'Unification War' the Sol Unification was a great event which transpired within the Sol system in 2345. This event was linked directly to the founding of the Sol System Government and the Sol Defense Forces, which replaced the now-defunct UNGSI and its military counterpart UNGDF.
From the perspective of a citizen from Sol the Unification was a key event in the sense that it marked the founding one of the largest galactic superpowers and allowed Humanity to have both the numbers, influence and reach on-par with other empires such as the Ayr Empire, Sanghvi Mantle, Upyri Federation and the Kanad Collective.
However from a galactic perspective this event marked a period of violence and instability were the former United Nations-based government made a secret pact to forcefully unite an entire star system and impose new laws. Sol citizens will justify the Unification as a neccessary change needed to unite a people split by politics, religion and economy.
It is true that the victor writes the history and it is true that the Unification played a major role in modern history but it was not an entirely perfect plan.
During the Unification reportedly hundreds were killed in combat against the newly formed SDF. Thousands were also wounded during combat or during riots which took place on Terra, Luna and Mars. Ontop of rioting and general civil unrest the newly imposed laws forcefully created hostilities between those who accepted change and those who opposed it and asked for democracy.
In the end the SSG managed to stabilize the system but it was at a heavy cost. Even today anti-Sol resistance groups and insurgencies continue to claim lives while the SDF and the SSOID muster for a never-ending war on terrorists.
