SWN Factions: Aquila Union

The next faction, alphabetically speaking, is the Aquila Union.  It is an federation of two major systems, three average systems, and four weaker ones - founded and dominated by the Aquila System.  Currently, the Union is led by two people.  First is President General Moira Muldoon, instated by the Union's Congress of Planets as the Supreme Commander in Chief under the long standing Temporary Defense Initiative.  The second is Prime Minister Charles Shaw, elected by popular vote and charged with keeping the Union strong economically.

The Muldoon-Shaw Administration is only three years old, forged out of the seven years of political chaos caused by the succession of Talus and the other members of the Alliance of Independent Systems.  Shaw is desperate to stabilize the economy of the union and balance the budgets, knowing full well that Mulddon will need the wealth of the nation to combat the eventual invasion of the Skorpios empire.

The capital, Aquila, is well defended and hosts the bulk of the union's industry and market activity.  The union's military is positioned towards Skorpios, ready to defend when needed.
