Nanotrasen
Introduction
NanoTrasen Corp, or NT for short, is a ruthless megacorporation that started out as a government-sanctioned military contractor of SolGov. Due to SolGov's absence from the second Syndicate war, they are no longer focusing on only the economy. With permission from SolGov they have begun arming a basic militia of cargo ships with MAC and other typically anti-asteroid weaponry, though this force cannot really compare to Whiterapids, or even SolGovs main fleet.
History
Faction Relations
NanoTrasen has a very complicated relationship with many factions, due to being a subsidiary of SolGov while also acting as an independent body.
SolGov
NanoTrasen and SolGov are both members of the Federation and as such allied, infact a lot of SolGov's tax revenue comes from NanoTrasen. But the fact of the matter is that SolGov knows NT wants to get out from under their thumb and as such is forcing them to fight a slow war of attrition with a force that is very hard to kill, of course referring to the Syndicate threat.
Dominion of Light
Due to The Dominion being in need of industrial goods, something NT can provide and NT being in need of tech, something the Dominion can provide the two have a great trade relationship. Only major problem with NanoTrasen - Dominion relations is the sticking point of The Draconic Empire. Due to NanoTrasen having great relations with both parties, they usually play mediator.
Draconic Empire
The relations between The Empire and NanoTrasen are very good, as The Empire respects military ability. While SolGov is stronger than NanoTrasen, there is a major amount of respect and even admiration for what NT can do with limited resources The fact that both factions have things the other needs, Luxury goods on one side and ship hulls on the other helps relations massively. The only sticking point once more is The Dominion of Light and The Empire hating each other, which NT has to play mediator to
Tortugan Raiders
The Tortugan Raiders and NT have a love-hate relationship, the raiders love NanoTrasen cargo vessels for being easy prey, and NanoTrasen hates The Tortugans for raiding their shipments. However now that Nanotrasen has acquired a military fleet (thanks to the start of the war against the Syndicate), Nanotrasen has started to fight back against these pirates.
Syndicate
One of the only things NanoTrasen's all human leadership hates more than the Syndicate is how they've been forced to fight them by SolGov. NanoTrasen admiralty are still enraged at The Syndicate for destroying the moon and The Syndicate hates them back just as much, for being the ones that hid the existence of plasma for so long, and with so little regard for any civilian lives that got in the way of the secrecy.
