History
In the late 3060's, Clan Snow Raven would see how little they would gain from staying in the Clan Homeworlds, resulting in their departure from Clan Space. While traveling to the Inner Sphere they would engage in a Trial of Possession against the Outworld Alliance for a Jumpship, which they lost against. The Ravens would gain the respect and friendship of the Outworlds Alliance and work together to create the Corax OmniFighter. During the Jihad Era, they would fight against the Draconis Combine after they destroyed one of their Warships. While the Outworlds Alliance stayed in isolation during the Jihad, the Ravens had to face war on two fronts, from both Inner Sphere and Clan forces. After Clan Snow Raven was abjured from Clan Space during the Wars of Reaving, they would seek refuge with their allies, the Outworlds Alliance. Seeing the similarities and benefits of both for both faction would result in the creating of the Raven Alliance.

Notes
Though the Raven Alliance forces were formed by the merge of the Clan Snow Raven Touman and Alliance Military Corps (AMC), they indeed did not act as a single unit and stayed separated. Nevertheless a list of the active units during the Raven Alliance existence has been categorized here.
