Liberty Insurgency

Liberty Navy, Liberty Police, Liberty Security Force, Liberty Rogues, Outcasts, Lane Hackers, Junkers, Gallic Royal Navy

The Liberty Insurgency is a well trained and well armed organization serving as the military arm of the Commonwealth of House Liberty, a sovereign state of Libertarian-Socialist nature which lays claim to the systems of Vespucci, Humboldt, and Kansas. The Commonwealth settled on the borders of the Republic following the rebellion of Drake Thastus and his battlegroup from the Liberty Navy in 800 AS with the intent of reclaiming their House from an overreaching expansionist government, it's corrupt incorporated police force, and its criminally invasive intelligence agency.

These early Insurgents soon recognized, however, that their goals of overthrowing Liberty's government would not be accomplished overnight. With this realization they went on to form the Commonwealth, a separatist government embodying the ideology of their movement. While still hoping to eventually wrest control of Liberty's core systems from the Republic, today the Insurgency acts more as a peacekeeping force, policing Commonwealth and Republic space against pirates and smugglers. Although they continue to conduct frequent operations against the Republic's military, police, and intelligence assets as they remain at war.

While this contrast to the early actions of the Insurgency rooted in outright rebellion and terrorism has drawn the attention of Libertonian citizens and foreign nations alike, a large degree of stigma still exists towards the Insurgency, and it may be some time before they and the Commonwealth are recognized as a legitimate entity in Sirius.

## Rumors

* Not too long ago, myself and a Guard Wing repelled a Junker raiding party that came through the Kepler Hole. Those idiots thought they could raid us with four ships. I think we taught them a lesson.

* Believe it or not, Solar actually pays bonuses at Mortagne Production Facility in Pearls instead of credits. Rumor has it that some Solar major stockholder won a gambling bet with a GMS stockholder, and the result is that Solar now owns rights to a certain amount of Pearls on an annual basis for the next ten years.

* You would think that the military success of the Royal Navy would make things better for us back here in Gallia, but that's not what has been happening. It seems like prices of everything are going up. More and more resources, both financial and human, are going towards the war effort. This isn't at all like the government said it would be.

* We stockpile Superconductors from Abbeville Production Facility here on Bourges so that La Charite can make more efficient use of space. Whenever they are running low, we can just transport them up to the station. The important thing is that the Robotics production line never stops for lack of materials.

* Surplus Copper dug up in the Maine system finds its way onto the Chateau-Gautier Freeport. We get orders to ship the metal across Gallia to places with high demand like Planet Bourges. While the war is making it hard to get hold of some commodities, it's making it easier to cut deals with the corporations. Even a few years ago they wouldn't have let me set foot on some of their bases. With the massive demand for commodities, and the people to move them, they have little choice but to accomodate us.

* We're starting to see some contraband in Gallia that we've never had contact with before. There's some new drug the kids call "Cardi" that seems to be all the rage these days. I've heard it's terribly addictive and destructive to the body. All signs point to Sirius as the source for this poison. If it sells like some of my collegues claim it does, I want to get my hands on some.
