Altian: formerly the home system of the now-deposed AIA, who, as we know, weren't really all that keen on the free elections concept. In an ironic twist of fate, its now one of the more actively traded systems. Currently SE'd by Devin Clark of the USF, the planets also seem to be contested by RBF. forum.pbbghub.com/viewtopic.php?f=72&t=8270Some people know that I was among the most vocal anti-AIA captains with regards to the ceasefire terms against AIA. Never thought that they'd end up embracing free elections. Of course there's always the tinfoil option "its just a facade before the remnants of AIA go killing people again," but it could turn out, pleasantly, that I was just too pessimistic. Time will tell if this peace will be lasting. Events involving quad roids (I'll post my thoughts on that too) show that the current inhabitants are quite willing defend what they claim. Comments?

I've been pretty suprised by RBF actually. I thought they would just be an AIA breakoff, like the others. But they've actually gone the trade and mining route. They aren't overtly aggressive for now.
They do have quite a few members who dont mind flexing their muscles, but for now I'll take them at their word.
