===The Alliance Navy===

A force of approximately 50 capital ships (none bigger than the old Correllian Corvette) and several hundred '''Lightrunner Sailships,''' the Alliance Navy defends alliance worlds.  It was first blooded in the '''First Hutt War,''' and protects Alliance commercial shipping from Hutt raiders.

While the '''First Battle of Gormoth''' ended in an alliance victory against the newly encountered and expansionistic '''Palpatinist Autarchy''', the navy now watches both the borders to spinward and anti-spinward, while watching the Rimward frontier which leads to wild space.

While the '''Explorer Corps''' technically functions as part of the navy, it has it's own command hierarchy, which works with the navy to protect Alliance citizens and interests.
