The Carnwath Coalition was one of several micro-states that arose from former Republic of the Sphere territory after the Blackout. Its independent existence was short-lived before Clan Jade Falcon conquered its member worlds, although the nation continued to exist for some time as a vassal under Falcon rule.
Overview[edit]
The coalition was formed by the savvy business people of Carnwath as a trade alliance between their world and the neighboring systems of Izar and Zebeneschamali. The new state had barely been formed before Clan Jade Falcon arrived in the region in 3134. Initially ignored by the invaders, the Coalition soon found itself at the mercy of the Falcons. To avoid completely losing their power, the Coalition's leadership made a proposition to the Clan warriors.[1]
The Coalition would pay tribute to the Falcons - in the form of a share of each world's gross planetary product and inter-system trade profits - and provide complete access to any military facilities the Falcons required. In exchange the Falcons would maintain only a minimal presence in each system and allow the natives self-governance in internal affairs. Though such an arrangement was very unusual for Clanners, the Falcons accepted the deal, likely because it would secure for them three undamaged worlds without further fighting.[1]
The coalition officials in 3136 hired the mercenary unit, Jamison's Juggernauts to investigate and possibly neutralize a suspected Word of Blake survivalist settlement which had been rumored to exist on Zebeneschamali.[1]
