			==Lost Technology==
			Lost Technology is the denomination by which the people refers to ancient relics left behind by the Holy Ryuvian Empire that outclass any current techonology. The findings of Lost Technology tend to be great events with the possibility of radically changing the known galaxy, and even upsetting the balance of power.


			One such example was the discovery of the first known Ryder circa 398. Despite that the Ryders were built by Ryuvians as a more "safe" and ceremonial weapon than their gigantic WMD, it still surpassed everything that was known at the moment (including what was left of the Ryuvia), and not only instated the Ryders as an important part of the battlefield (being one of the factors that shifted the balance in favor of The Alliance in The Alliance-Imperial War), humanity also spent at least 100 years to reach a level comparable to the Ryuvian one (as the Seraphim shows, being equal to any Ryder onboard the Sunrider). Even if the piece of Lost Techonology is comparable to another one, more technologies can be found if one uses that knowledge to analyze it more deeply. The Seraphim is again an example, being used by Chigara Ashada to improve the warp drive of the Sunrider to a point where the error window is only of 0.1 meters (improving several times the current one). In fact, all the advances in Ryder technology can be ascribed to understanding and being able to replicate better the one found at 398.


			The remnants of Ryuvia are the ones that possess a higher number of relics, like the crown jewel. Most of them however are either combat ineffective (like the Royal Gem) or require some kind of sacrifice (a restraint installed by the old Ryuvian emperors to prevent a possible war that could destroy the Galaxy). And even then, the majority were lost after 500 years of decay. Even so Veniczar S. Arcadius seems to believe that he can find numerous hidden Lost Technology in Ryuvia Prime and it's Palace.

	===Alliance ~~Space Force~~===		===Alliance Personnel===
	Being the current superpower, the Alliance also had the most powerful space fleet in the galaxy since the decline of the New Empire. Despite the militaristic and expansionist policy followed by it's rival, PACT, the Alliance force continues to be at least on par with Pact's Fleet, and is remarkably superior in it's production capacity. The main weakness of the Space Force is that, due to the federal nature of the Alliance and it's weak central government, is spreaded out in all the Alliance's territory. This limits specially it's First Strike capabilities and amplifies it's weakness to surprise attacks in a Blitzkrieg manner. It has at least 5 active fleets (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th Fleet), and it's main force is the 1st Fleet, a force of 200 ships comprised mainly by cruisers and led by Admiral Grey. When at war, it can deploy an astounding amount of ships (aside from an increased production rate) if given the time. Due to this, is very usual to see the Alliance concentrate and designate its main force as the Combined Fleet instead of using fleets as independent forces. This also allows the Space Forces to unify its Chain of Command, killing two birds with one stone.

	The ship that forms the main line of the Alliance Fleet is its cruiser. An old design, it was designated as a battlecruiser, now is recognized as Cruiser by PACT and Neutral Rim space forces. An excellent design, it is a proof of its success that it still a good match to any enemy. Having the firepower equal to top of the line battleships and the agility of a cruiser, is still sturdier than a normal cruiser and has moderate flak and armour. Its only flaw is its lack of shielding due to being an old design. Despite it, precisely because of its reliability, its produced in big quantities by the Alliance with excellent efficiency (which further enhances the production capacity advantage of the Alliance) and its easy to reactivate after prolonged time in storage as a reserve.

	Having been almost 100 years since its last important conflict, the Alliance Space Forces are completely unaware of the shift of military doctrine. While its love for kinetic firepower mitigates this flaw, it still remains that most of the Alliance higher military commanders are old men without much direct experience. Another problem of the military is it's absolute submission to the civilian government. With both the military budget and operations tightly supervised by the Solar Congress, and having to take into account moral and political consequences over military ones, the Space Forces feel that they fight at disadvantage against the totalitarian PACT. This has started a wave of discontent through it towards the Solar Congress, and especially the Progress Party.

	~~The Space Force has a Spec Ops (Special Operations) Unit, and follows a standard rank system and classification of units in squads. Crew are gender-segregated between different ships.~~

	This isolationist policy however, ended being the cause of its downfall. After being surrounded by PACT territory due to their conquest of most of the Neutral Rim, the accelerated rearmament of the Ceran military wasn't enough to stop its defeat by the superior PACT forces in the Invasion of Cera. The swift invasion destroyed all the Ceran civilian and military hierarchy with the destruction of Cera City, and successfully absorbed all what was left into PACT, the only exception being the Assault Carrier Sunrider.

	===Cera ~~Space Force~~===		===Cera Personnel===
	Despite being one of the most powerful Fleets in the Neutral Rim, the Cera Space Force is still only average when compared to the resources and population of the nation. Being a democracy with a strong isolationist sentiment and a distrust for the government has resulted in the voters resisting attempts to expand the military. Despite it, the Cera fleet can be proud of the possession of at least 5 Battleships (including the Sunrider, that technically is an Assault Carrier), an unparalleled force within the neighbouring planets. The vanguard of the fleet is composed by the Ceran Battleship, a vessel with 729 meters of length and equipped with the powerful precursor of the Vanguard cannon. While its size is relatively small compared to other Battleships so its capabilities are more similar to a Battlecruiser, it is still unmatchable by any of the competitors she was designed to fight (Pirate Raids and other Neutral Rim militaries). The problem started when due to PACT expansionism the duties of the Space Force shifted from protecting shipping and trade routes from pirates and guarding Cera from other Neutral Rim nations to avoid a complete and total adhesion of Cera by the PACT. While still powerful, the fleet was completely outmatched by both the technology of their superweapons (like the Legion) and the numbers of their regular fleet. Due to this, despite some resistance from the population, the military started an important rearmament with the central point being the creation of the first Assault Carrier, the Sunrider class. This ship was to use the latest technologies, with both offensive capabilities of a Battleship and Ryder capacity like a Carrier. Despite, or maybe because, its small size, the Ceran command realized how the introduction of shielding had fundamentally changed the way wars were fought, thus requiring a corresponding change on the Military Doctrine. The Assault Carrier was the answer to that, thought for extreme tactical flexibility and increased short range capabilities to fight together with its Ryders, with the Sunrider class being a relatively small and cheap, yet still more advanced that anything else, model that the Ceran military could afford. Enhancing it's capacities were top of the line reactors, warp drive and an easily upgradeable design. There were also plans to install shielding technology, but the Invasion of Cera put an end to them. While the first one of its class was finished by the Invasion of Cera, the reluctance of the nation to strengthen its military and to form alliances with other nations still left the Ceran Space Force woefully outmatched by the PACT Invasion fleet, which resulted in the destruction of Cera City and the fall of the Ceran nation. The Cera Space Force was formally disbanded and the remaining ships were absorbed into the PACT Fleet. The only exception is the Sunrider, which refused to surrender and still fights against PACT, with hopes of one day liberating the planet.

PACT Space Force

@@ Line 58: / Line 58: @@
 PACT's hierarchy is strict and lineal, with all power centralized in the hands of their sumpreme leader, Veniczar S. Arcadius. This power is executed through the Veniczar office, which can probably be described as the most similar thing PACT has to a government's body. Overall, PACT can be easily compared to a totalitarian state, with restricted space voyage, no separation of powers, and other numerous similarities. Most high ranking officers (civilian or military, though PACT mixes both branches) have the title of Veniczar, with the letter next to the tittle signifying their ranking. So, Arcadius is Veniczar S. Arcadius, while his right hand man is Veniczar B. Fontana. Arcadius chose the name Veniczar as a spiritual successor the name of Venassar used by the leader of Compact.

	To be sure, ryders are not without their disadvantages. Ryders are almost exclusively space superiority vehicles, and even grazing a planet's atmosphere is considered suicidal by most ryder pilots. Ryders are uniformly manufactured in space to reduce manufacturing costs, and most never set foot on a terrestrial environment during their operational cycle. While a modern ryder could theoretically survive atmospheric re-entry, ryders do not carry enough fuel to operate on land and would most likely be flatted on the ground upon impact. Carrying ryders on landing ships for land operations have seen various fiasco as well, ranging from ryders toppling over, bursting on fire, fuel shortages, and mold interfering with delicate electrical systems. Some criminal rings have been reported using ryders to terrorize isolated human settlements on land, but aside from the fear factor, a well placed human bazooka will cause a ryder to topple over spectacularly and/or burst into flames. Some experimental land based ryders involved strapping enormous jet packs containing tons of fuel to allow it to fly in a terrestrial environment... but the fiery end result of that experiment was so tragic that all the scientists involved were thereafter blacklisted from every reputable research academy in Alliance space.
