The company's Outback-focus made Federated Arbitrators highly attractive to the expanding Green Star Corporation which acquired it in the wake of the  [[Clan Invasion]].

Formerly Green Star Emergency Services, the mammoth Green Star Corporation has grown to become effectively a shadow-government in the Federated Suns Periphery facing Outback region.[3]

Overview[edit]

Founded in 3008, initially Green Star Emergency Services represented an experiment by the Federated Suns government when it decided to privatize certain emergency services within the Outback region. Issuing these former government emergency response teams with some ancient equipment that would otherwise been scrapped, Green Star Emergency Services provided relief services primarily during such events as bandit raids or natural disasters, negotiating contracts with local planetary governments in feeding, sheltering and caring for disaster victims as well as consulting in reconstruction efforts. In the wake of First Prince Hanse Davion's "Bold New Frontier" speech urging the people of the Federated Suns to colonize new planets and invest in the resource rich worlds near the Federated Suns/Periphery border, the experiment provided highly successful as Green Star eventually opened up subsidiary offices across the Outback to feed increased demand for its services.[1][3]

It was on the back of this booming business and with significant anonymous financial backing (rumored to be House Davion, though other prominent FedSun families have been suggested) that Green Star signed several remarkable merger deals with companies that complemented its operations in Outback, allowing it by the era of the Clan Invasion to grow into the Green Star Corporation, the Federated Suns newest megacorporation, providing products and services to much of the Outback as well as a not-insignificant percentage of the entire nation. While providing much needed services to the disadvantaged region, Green Star's dominance is such that some have come to think of it as a shadow-government, effectively running the Outback through its near-monopolies and exploiting those least able to resist. One example of this is when numerous groups sought to bring antitrust suits against the influence of Green Star purchased Consolidated Utilities and Services in the Outback they used the services of Federated Arbitrators and Judges Inc, the FedSuns premier civil arbitration firm and ironically another Green Star holding, to do so.[1]

As of 3067, aside from Green Star Emergency Services, the Green Star Corporation boasted five other major divisions:[1]
