Fiction:Allied Terran Republic/Navy



"They possess the forms of slaves, not gifted with any rare strength or advantage, but have the will of any race we have yet encountered. One would think with enough worlds ravaged, enough men killed, enough starship destroyed, that they would accept oblivion. But instead, these humans show the same character that any of the Gigaquadrant's great races show in the face of certain death.

Formed in response to the devastating, the initial fleets of the Terran Republic were a mishmash of ships pooled together by the early member states in a desperate attempt to curb.

These ships, and the brave officers who commanded them, were thrust into the conflict zones, serving the Republic with honour and conviction. After the conflict ended, the Republic continued to advance and design powerful new ships augmented with technology that came with Republic membership in. By the time the next century dawned, the Terran Republic had proven itself in key battles during conflicts like the and the Dominatus War and when the next century began, it found itself fighting to defend Republic interests in new conflicts such as the  and the.
