They were self appointed lawmen and vigilantes who took it upon themselves to patrol settler areas not yet under the control of any of the old earth nations. Sometimes they formed their own organisations and systems of justice. For example, the Yellow Nova rangers organised the only resistance of the [[Blue_Giant:Federal_Alliance\|Federal Alliance]] against American and Shanshock expansion in 2782 and transported stolen battleship plans across a quarter of the galaxy which resulted in the creation of the Federated Territories. And the Cat-tail Nebula Rangers more or less destroyed the Gordon-Hammer corporation and its colonial slavery ring which involved 3.2 billion human slaves.

	Space Rangers, as a concept, have existed for four to five hundred years. They were self appointed lawmen and vigilantes who took it upon themselves to patrol settler areas not yet under the control of any of the old earth nations. Sometimes they formed their own organisations and systems of justice. For example, the Yellow Nova rangers organised the only resistance of the [[Blue_Giant:~~Federal_Allience~~\|Federal Alliance]] against American and Shanshock expansion in 2782 and transported stolen battleship plans across a quarter of the galaxy which resulted in the creation of the Federated Territories. And the Cat-tail Nebula Rangers more or less destroyed the Gordon-Hammer corporation and its colonial slavery ring which involved 3.2 billion human slaves.

	The Treaty Rangers came about as part of the Federal / Imperial treaty. With the demilitarization of the treaty zone and the creation of the treaty oversight committee, a force of neutral inspectors was needed. The [[Blue_Giant:Treaty_Zone_Species#Flarin\|Flarin]] negotiators pointed out that there was already such a force in the area, the tens of thousands of rangers who had protected the settlers, and some of whom had fought against the invading nations. Once the concept was on board, things developed quickly. The Treaty Rangers would be drawn from a pool of volunteer rangers (later expanded to just about anyone). All of the signatories the Groombridge accord would be able to provide rangers although the bulk would come from the [[Blue_Giant:Interstellar_Nations#The Federated Territories\|The Federated Territories]] and the [[Blue_Giant:Interstellar_Nations#The Astræ'an Empire\|Empire]]. Rangers would have to pass a ~~rigourous~~ training course designed to weed out the unsuitable.		The Treaty Rangers came about as part of the Federal / Imperial treaty.

	Treaty Rangers are the best of the best. Hundreds of millions of people apply each year. Former rangers, ex-military, scientists, smugglers, colonists, aliens, robots, even rich kids from Old Earth. Less than one in ten thousand finish the training and as a result, in the ~~eigth~~ year of the treaty, one sixth of the galaxy is guarded and protected by just over a million lawmen. 1.6 million rangers have been assigned sectors in the treaty zone, eight hundred thousand from the Federal Ranger academy and eight hundred thousand from the Empire. A quarter of them are dead already.		Treaty Rangers are the best of the best. Hundreds of millions of people apply each year.
