Description

The Gree Trade Authority (GTA) is the governing body of the Gree star system, tracing its historical roots back to the ancient Gree Enclave that once controlled a large sector of the Outer Rim Territories. The GTA was established shortly after the expulsion of the Black Sun Crime Syndicate at the hands of the GenoHaradan paramilitary organization and the Mandalorian clan Dael'mor in Year 14 (CGT). As their operation was scaling back due to overwhelming success, control of the system was handed to the GTA with GenoHaradan and Dael'mor converting to support and advisory roles, assisting the new government of the Gree system with infrastructural and defensive requirements.


Intent on expanding the economic and defensive capabilities of the Gree system, the Gree Trade Authority has opened its borders in the interest of building relationships with many galactic-scale organizations and governments. Funded by credit reserves and assets seized from Black Sun, the GTA is creating new streams of sustainable revenue by investing heavily into local businesses and increased trade with other star systems. Massive construction projects are underway to create new residences and employment in an effort to encourage a growth in immigration to the growing system.


History

Year 14 (and prior)

Long controlled by the Black Sun crime syndicate, the resident civilians of the Gree system endured a brutal occupation and suppression of their basic sentient rights with executions and extortion a daily ritual. Many citizens were rounded up and sent into forced labor, used extensively in Hyrotii Corporation's various mining operations in the system. Those that were spared physical labor were typically forced into refuge camps, tortured or outright executed. These ruthless conditions and Black Sun's disregard for lives led many Gree civilians to get involved in a resistance movement, organizing terrorist attacks and trying to protect innocents. While ineffective overall, this resistance would eventually find support from the GenoHaradan paramilitary organization in late Year 14 (CGT). Led by Nyarlathotep Alaks and Tomas o`Cuinn, former Black Sun members, the GenoHaradan contracted the Mandalorian clan Dael'mor to provide military assistance during a planned assault of the Gree system. Operating off of intelligence supplied from informants within Black Sun, the criminal syndicate's unmanned defensive emplacements and surprised military forces were quickly overrun and seized on Day 350 of Year 14 (CGT). The combined fleets and soldiers of GenoHaradan and Dael'mor fortified their new defenses with the intent to repel the expected counterattack, but Underlord Alexander von Ismay instead responded by releasing a news report that stated the system was actually a gift.[1] Later on, Alexander would contradict himself and state that the "gifts" had actually been stolen, declaring a select number of GenoHaradan and Dael'mor members as enemies of Black Sun.[2] The Gree Trade Authority was formed from the remaining resistance members and newly freed citizens, funded by credit reserves and assets seized from Black Sun and intent on rebuilding the once-powerful Gree Enclave.[3]

Year 15

Without the oppressive hand of Black Sun, the Gree system experienced a political and economical freedom previously unknown to them. Vowing to never again allow a foreign power to dominate them, the Gree Trade Authority set itself to expanding the defensive capabilities of the system. GenoHaradan and Dael'mor would hand complete system management over, converting themselves into support and advisory roles. Although they sat on a comfortable reserve of seized credits, the need for sustainable operations led to heavy investments into local businesses alongside increased trade with other star systems. In addition, massive construction projects were started to encourage a growth in immigration to the system along with absorbing numerous groups of refuges escaping from the surrounding Black Sun territory. State-of-the-art branches of established intergalactic companies were constructed on Gree I to promote galactic trade while new local businesses were started to take advantage of the growing opportunities. Taking advantage of the system's natural beauty of its contrasting binary star, credits were poured into improving tourist accommodations and marketing in an effort to draw additional income. By the end of Year 15 (CGT), more than 1 billion new citizens would call the expanding residential cities on Gree I home.
