History of The Pirate Alliance
Although pirates have existing for as long as commerce itself, it has only been in the last 50 years that they have organized themselves collectively under the rule of an organization as vast as the Pirate Alliance. The alliance consists of a rotating leadership council referred to as the High Command. The creation of the Pirate Alliance sprang up as the power of the Intergalactic Trade Organization spread throughout the galaxy.
After an ITO strike on Haven, the first prototypes of the Evader Class Destroyer came off underground lines on New Haven. With all their large capital ships destroyed, the alliance resorted to gorilla tactics until the ITO was forced to retreat.
