As the largest [[aerospace fighter]] manufacturer in the [[Outworlds Alliance]], the '''United Outworlders Corporation''' had received most of the government's defense budget since the company commenced operations.<ref name=H:MPSp144/> In the mid-[[twenty-seventh century]], the corporation purchased a small aerospace factory on [[Ramora]], which had been founded and owned originally as a communally-owned facility owned by the small population of Ramora. Having bought the factory, UOC expanded the planetside facilities on Ramora and then, in the [[twenty-eighth century]], constructed the <span id="Ramora Shipyards">Ramora Shipyards</span> in the Ramora system. As the Outworlds Alliance continued to expand through an aggressive colonization program the Alliance found it necessary to expand the small Alliance [[WarShip]] fleet, and Ramora Shipyards were well-positioned in April [[2765]] to become the foremost fleet docks in the Alliance.<ref name="FR2765:Pp10">''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 10: "Infrastructural Integrity"</ref>

The company faced some challenges during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] however, and used aid from the [[Draconis Combine]] from the [[3020]]'s. In the [[3060]]'s the company scored two key business deals: A partnership with [[Clan Snow Raven]] to build the ''Corax'' OmniFighter, and a contract with the Draconis Combine to provide ''Seydlitz'' aerospace fighters.<ref name=H:MPSp144/>

The United Outworlders Corporation was attacked several times by the [[Word of Blake]]. Several strikes by the Inferno terrorist organization destroyed the workers habitats on Ramora and damaged the autocannon production line. The Word also led the [[Screaming Eagles]] mercenary unit to think that they were being attacked by forces based on Ramora. The Screaming Eagles responded by attacking the world. In addition, most people on Ramora think that the Word is responsible for a highly infectious and drug-resistant strain of influenza that has spread across the world.<ref name=MMp164>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 164: "United Outworlders Corporation Profile"</ref> By [[3071]], the company would with the aid of their nation's Clan allies, begin to produce the [[Star League]] BattleMech design, the ''[[Bombardier]]''.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3050 Upgrade'', p. ?</ref><ref name=O:TCp19>''Objectives: The Clans'', p. 19: "Mitchella - United Outworlders Corporation"</ref>
