Solusian Commonwealth

The Solusian Commonwealth is an independent state located in the Outer Rim Territories. Its territory covers half of Hypori and Siskeen, including the moon of Cascadia. It also borders Apex's Confederacy on Hypori. The Commonwealth's judicial and legislative capital is Harling, and it's largest city, Wellington, serves as the executive capital, and the headquarters of its armed forces.

The largest and one of the most important city on Hypori is Wellington, which serves as home to the Commonwealth Government and the Commonwealth Armed Forces, hosting a large military installation to facilitate military needs. The second-largest settlement, Harling is home to the Legislative and Judicial branch.

Solusian Regional Council
The Solusian Regional Council was a temporary anarcho-frontier commune formed prior to the formation of the Solusian Commonwealth, with an aim to kick the Confederates out and form an independent state, and the SRC being a temporary authority until a new government structure can be agreed upon. It was established by several settlers and a 'private military company' led by Varlo Christopher, who were disgruntled by the Confederate Remnants which eventually resulted in a conflict between both of them.

The Solusian Regional Council fought a prolonged conflict against Confederate remnants on the planet, until eventually, the latter was forced out of Hypori after a successful major Solusian assault followed by an invasion by the Apex's Confederacy.

Hypori Charter
With the Confederates now gone, leaving only Apex's Confederacy and the Solusian Regional Council on the planet, tensions grew between the two neutral states as both sides anticipated an attack from one another.

This tense atmosphere lasted several days until eventually, Varlo as the representative of the Solusian settlers, met Apex onboard his flagship, the Venator-class destroyer, 'Retribution' to discuss the future of both states until eventually reaching a mutually-beneficial solution, the Hypori Charter which creates a non-aggression pact, along with a free-trade agreement between the two states.

Siskeen Campaign
After securing independence and sovereignty, the Commonwealth soon set its eyes on Siskeen, a planet located not far from Hypori. With the help of the loyal Clan Fennec, both Commonwealth Naval Forces and Clan Fennec's ships managed to take control of the planet from a local syndicate called the Sarlacc Marauders.

Commonwealth Armed Forces
The Commonwealth Armed Forces are the unified armed forces of the Commonwealth, as constituted by the United Declaration's Constitution, which states: "The Commonwealth Armed Forces are the armed forces of the Commonwealth, and shall be raised by the Commonwealth for the defence of the realm."

This institution consists of land and naval elements referred to as the Commonwealth Land Forces and the Commonwealth Naval Forces respectively.

Commonwealth Land Forces
The Commonwealth Land Forces is the land service branch of the CAF. The history of the Commonwealth Land Forces has its roots in the SRC when it first emerged as a paramilitary/militia force dedicated to fighting the CIS Remnants on Hypori. Despite its paramilitary roots, servicemembers of the CLF are well-trained and well-armed, even during their service with the SRC due to the funding and experience gathered from mercenary operations. It is also supported by Clan Fennec which has affiliated itself with the Commonwealth.

Since the Siskeen Campaign, the CLF has been issued new M280 Infantry Servivce Rifles, produced by the Knight's Armoury, in which the rifle itself is a modification of the popular A280 rifle with better ergonomics and comfortable frame.

CLF Special Operations Group (SOG)
The Commonwealth Land Forces Special Operations Group, or just Special Operations Group for short, is an elite special operations force that is primarily composed of defected Black Sun and Haxion Brood mercenaries, or/and regulars trained by them. Motivations of their defection vary, from seeking redemption and starting a new life, to simple camaraderie. It is clear, however, that SOG troops are loyal to the state despite their diverse background, due to a multitude of internal and external reasons.

An SOG operative is usually equipped with a set of modular armour pieces inspired by, and resembling Old Republic trooper armour. Depending on the operative's purpose and rank, their armours are modified to suit their respective needs. For example, a squad leader is equipped/armed with a flamethrower, jetpack and missiles, a standard operative is equipped/armed with a cortosis double-edged vibroblade, rifle, carbine or sniper, vibroblades in their gauntlets, spikes in their boots and kneepads, flamethrowers and dart launchers under their arms, while a corpsman is equipped/armed with a rifle, medical equipment and power armour.

Commonwealth Naval Forces
The Commonwealth Naval Forces is the youngest service branch in the CAF, having only been formed a few months before the Confederate was defeated and the Hypori Charter signed. It was vital during the Assault on Hypori, where Solusian Forces assaulted towards the Confederate outpost on the planet.

The CNF's ships are maintained and partially-produced by the National Shipbuilding Institute, which operates shipyards above Hypori, either for shipbuilding or maintenance.

Before the formation of the Commonwealth, the SRC sent out expeditions to recover and/or acquire ships. One of the vessels recovered was an old Sith Harrower which was abandoned, but still intact and mostly working. It was then brought to Nar Shadda for repairs and partook in the Hypori Campaign. When the NSC was formed, it was subject for full-scale restoration and reverse-engineering which eventually resulted in the NSC reproduction of Harrowers.

National Shipbuilding Company
The National Shipbuilding Company is a state-owned enterprise that manufactures ships for military or civilian use and conducts repairs and maintenance on ships. It was established a few months after the formation of the Commonwealth as the Navy Maintenance Arm with capabilities only to maintain small ships and starfighters. However, with the growing Commonwealth economy, the NMA was expanded to include shipbuilding and large vessel maintenance and renamed as the National Shipbuilding Company.

Now, the NSC produces and maintains ships for the CNF, with one of its main product being the reproduction of Harrowers that have been reverse-engineered. NSC Harrower reproductions maintain the same specifications with only a few internal/interior modifications and changes made, built with resources from Hypori and Siskeen, and thanks to significant technological advancement, costs less and takes up less time to build compared to the original Harrowers.

Clan Fennec
Clan Fennec, also known as Commonwealth Mandalorians, is a minor Mandalorian clan that affiliates itself with the Solusian Commonwealth.
