[edit] Information and History

[edit] Beginnings

The Phoenix Federation is an alliance based primarily on the white team, and is currently the largest alliance on that particular color. It was formed through the merger of COLD and TotalFarkistan. On July 20th, 2007, The Phoenix Federation signed the World Unity Treaty, making it an official member of the Initiative.

The Phoenix Federation would later fight against FAN in the VietFAN conflict, and also against Legion in the Legion-Valhalla War.

[edit] The Unjust War

They would likewise face-down the ~ Coalition (In particular the New Polar Order, Sparta and the MDC), in the Unjust War. They were the second alliance to surrender in that war, doing so on September 17th 2007 due to an OOC attack against someone on the Polar side perpetrated by a leader of an UJP alliance. As a result, all ties to the debilitated World Unity Treaty and the Unjust Path were cut in the process.

On October 4th, 2007, the BANG alliance, a former MADP partner, folded into The Phoenix Federation in a mutually agreeable merger.

During this time period, the Phoenix Federation would also assist in negotiating surrender terms for the Legion after Purplegate, alongside the New Pacific Order and Valhalla. Later still, on the 8th of December 2007, the Phoenix Federation would join the the Continuum as a founding signatory. Several new allies also emerged, many of whom were on the opposite side of the Unjust War just months ago.

[edit] Sanction and Beyond

The pinnacle of this era of peace occurred on January 19th, 2008, when the Phoenix Federation was officially announced as a sanctioned alliance, which they had maintained qualification for since late September of the prior year.

Afterwards, the Phoenix Federation was called upon via its MoADP with Valhalla to declare war upon BAPS for supposed transgressions against their alliance. Soon after, as the New Pacific Order once again declared war against the Federation of Armed Nations for violations of their surrender terms, the Phoenix military split to fight on two fronts, readily handling the burden of two wars at once.

At 11:47 PM on February 12th 2008, The Phoenix Federation, alongside a multitude of other Continuum members such as the Order of the Paradox and the Independent Republic of Orange Nations, declared war upon the Green Protection Agency for violations of their singular treaty, the Declaration of Neutrality.
