United Opedia

"Every world, every person, is their own king."

History and War
After the 117th elections, in which the Halo Nation narrowly beat out the Opedia Union. However, a number of the votes were disputed and riots on multipe planets broke out. Push came to shove and blood on both sides was spilled. A number of planets saw the Chat abusing their power and united together to fight them. The Chat saw this as a galactic security risk and quickly mobilized troops to put down the Opedia.

Over the next ten years, millions of people on both sides and many more were left with out homes. The Chat brought out Ban-hammer class assault crusiers and layed waste to huge portions of planets. They also suspended elections during the war. The Opedia resorted to using civilans as human shields and blurring the line between civilian and soldier. Both sides tested out new methods of killing their enemies, but the Chat was playing a numbers game, and winning. When they reached the Opedia home world of Yavin V, they proceded to bomb the plant instead of invading it. For two straight weeks, nothing on the planet was spared and the Chat let 10 years of blood shed and anger boil over until almost nothing was left alive on Yavin V. Though the Chat Nation came out as the victor, they had lost hundreds of thousands of soliders and millions of civilians.

Under the terms of the surrender, the United Opedia was disbanded and their leaders were excuted. However, the Chat was not able to silence all of them, and some of them escaped. For the most part, their people tried to return to a normal life after the war.

Current Status
Though they lost the war, splitter groups still exist in the furthest reaches of the galaxy, and support any groups opposing the Chat. Rumor has it they are have been building up an arsenal and are waiting for the right time to release on to their enemies.
