The The Syndicated Corporations of Nedea, commonly referred to as Nedea, is a massive corporate kingdom consisting of 8 major corporations that dominate over 97% of the land and markets in Nedea. While Nedea isn't technically a nation in any sense of the word it is still seen and treated as one on the international scene.

Nedea was first founded in Circa 2154 during the Gresk Civil War in the Old World. Before the Nedean Faction was called "Nedea" it was known as the United Corporation Front. Due to the totalitarian, anti-corporate, anti-religious nature of the Gresk Empire, a union was struck between the major acting corporations of Gresk thus creating the UCF. The UCF then allied with the People of St. Saratoga, a highly punished religious sect and went to war with the Gresk Empire. After a long war, the UCF and People of St. Saratoga managed to cripple the Gresk Government and set out for new lands with the UCF landing on a nice continent in the Wild Depths.

Nedea continues to rank in the highest in the region for "Best Place to do Business" and has a consistent track record of being in top 5 for biggest and best economies. Nedea is considered by many an "Anarcho-Corporate Dictatorship." However, to maintain some peace in the territory, the Syndicate was formed to keep the major corporations from fighting each other and destabilizing the region and economy. The "Major Eight" as they're called practice the highly controversial method of "Coopetition" which is the use of trusts and agreements to maintain artificial competition to increase revenues for both competing businesses.

Etymology

The name "Nedea" comes from the name "Nedarean" which was the surname of Alexander Nedarean, the first great CEO and founder of the Nedean Faction.

The common way to refer to a person of Nedea is a Nedean.

Demographics

The people that make up the Nedean population consist of mostly pure blood Greskin which is a hybrid mix of Terran Anglo Saxon and Terran Japanese. Saratogans and Nedeans share the same common bloodline back to Gresk. After Greskin come the Emen Nedean. Emens are native to the wasteland, Nation M and make up about 8% of Nedea according to the latest Consumer Marketing Census. Following Emens are the Moarish which are natives from the Old World [old world nation], a tribal society. Most Moarish during the Gresk Civil War signed employment contracts with the UCF for mercenary work or manufacturing jobs. After the war was won a majority of Moarish went off to found current day Moarfall while some stuck around with the UCF and a few even became captains of industry with one Moarish in particular founding Harmony.

Gresk Civil War

Far back, before there was any Nedea, there was Gresk. Gresk was a totalitarian dictatorship on the old Planet Terra. Gresk had come into power during a war before between Greskistan and Greskia. Greskia had won and rebranded into Gresk. Many of the businesses and corporations of Greskistan came under attack due to the communistic nature of the Gresk Government. Along with Corporations, various religious sects came under attack as well, the most notable being the People of St. Saratoga.

Tyrus Daunt

Sick of the threats and nationalization of their hard earned work and businesses, the various lasting corporations of Gresk joined forces and became the United Corporation Front. The UCF then teamed up with the large religious group People of St. Saratoga and took up arms against the Gresk Government. Through the UCFs incredible use of tact and private resources, and the People of St. Saratoga use of unorthodox strategy including some creative use of the nations sewers, the Gresk Government was crippled, but not before firing off several nuclear missiles at strategic UCF and Saratogan installations. Deciding it was no longer worthwhile to retake Gresk, the UCF and the Saratogans left the Old World and took to the Delta Sea to find a new home on Delta.

The First Corporate War

Upon landing at what would become to be known as DarkHaven, many of the UCF corporations began to quarrel. The bond they shared had begun to break. The UCF, which consisted of the 8 major corporations at the time was disbanded. This lead to the first Corporate War which lasted 5 years before Alexander Nedarean was able to strike a deal that all the former UCF corporations could agree with. Nedarean created the Coopetition Agreement, which stated that all the corporations will work together to better everyone while bettering themselves through the use of cooperative competition. This would involve the creation of a Board of Directors which consisted the CEOs of each corporation and lead by the Chairman.

Being the founder of the Coopetition Agreement and CEO of the largest corporation, Nedarean become the first chairman of the newly created Board. The Board voted and agreed to rename the UCF into the Nedean Faction or just Nedea. The greatest virtues being the acquisition of wealth, patriotism and fairness through the use of capitalism.

International

The Syndicate has a turbulent relationship with the World Assembly. Nedea has rejected all proposals from the WA and while it doesn't mind if other nations, including it's allies, join the WA, Nedea itself will never. This stance is reinforced by the fact Nedea and some of it's allies almost went to war with several WA nations over a dispute on what exactly constitutes slavery. Clearly even sex between consenting adults can be deemed rape or slavery somehow.
