| - | The Rion Union was one of the [[Powers]] between the 54th to 59th Centuries. | + | |

| + | The end of the 53rd Century saw the Shellcracker Wars, one of the worst conflicts to be seen in the [[Belt]]. More [[Habitats]] were lost in this 46 year period than across the rest of recorded history. | ||
| + | |||
| + | As the Shellcracker War escalated at the beginning of the 54th Century a number of habitats considered the use of AIs could be warranted. At this time AIs were still viewed as a threat due to the memories of the [[Roid War]]. However it was clear that they could also provide the economic and military shift needed to bring the conflict to an end. In 5311 a number of habitats agreed to form a governance body comprised equally of humans and AIs called the Rion. This Rion was able to provide guidance to willing Habitats and, by 5318, the Shellcracker Wars were ended. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The success of the Rion was undeniable and many habitats joined the Union. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In the 56th Century the Union created Strikeforce Onyx to repel the Ma-Khar Armada. The Strikeforce was then used as a security force for the Belt, causing a golden age that lasted three hundred years. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Union fell apart due to internal conflicts in an event now called the [[Dissolution]]. Whilst this was relatively peaceful, the power vacuum caused ended the golden years. | ||
