In truth, this looks like my original write up I did for the Solar Runners, Not say its the same after all, but its the same setup before I recreated the info page. Honestly, I love the idea, its a good one, just needs more work. As most people can say, if you want to create a faction, start with a Zoner one, that's what I did and look where it is now.
However as the others said, work on the history, add one if possible, who your people are, leadership, ranking (if you want to have this anyways, some Zoner factions do and some don't) and a detailed description of a InRP to begin with home system.
Ill link you to the SolarR's info page so you can get a basic idea of how to step up the creativity of this page. Here you go.
Why would the Coalition be allied with you? We don't even know who the heck you are. 0_o The only Zoners we could be considered allied to are TAZ and friendly with most other Zoners like OSI. 0_o
Attempting to gain some kind of sovereignity in Omicrons will cause you eventually to go into war with Corsairs, Outcasts, The Order or Core (or any combination of those at once). You may actually have slightly better chances in Omegas and more specifically: Omega 49 due to well established Zoner presence.
Speaking as a Zoner the best way to start off with factions is not to make a Zoner one.
You'll probably end up causing problems for the rest of us and other factions need a lot more love.
I feel this needs to be restated.
Please, please, PLEASE do not shoehorn whatever PR you want into existence and slap the Zoner tag on it. It does not work that way and it never has.
Unfortunately the view that people have that

Does not mean that the Zoner RP is flexible enough to suit any RP. There are some things that it cannot support and the people that have put in years of effort get slammed because everyone and their dog wants to make a zoner faction of army mercs out to fight the Core or something like that.
Please no.
Go make a Gallic indie faction. Nobody plays in Gallia so you can claim that as your sovereign space (As Gauls, not Zoners) and either nobody will care or some Gauls will log on at last.

They want (in RP) create a republic with a sovereign territory .
oh boy..... *sigh* playing as zoners and wanting to get your own sovereign territory?
that really is a bad idea. and, as has been had in many many many arguments is near impossible to accomplish with zoners because of their very nature. That and the fact that there is no available space.
one question: have you been reading from trogdor and tel-aviv's "how not to play zoners while pissing off half of disco" manual?
yay. more adds: the closest thing to any of that is TAZ's ironclad ownership of Baffin.
A word of advice: dont just try and claim stations or freeports. Most if not all of them already have administrators, so you'd be just turning other zoners against you.
You know I could not help but to notice how you keep adding cynical comments on our behalf - Seriously now, you keep mentioning TAZ as if that absolves you from the provocative things you say. If theres one thing that I totaly reject in this life is clergy, and you my friend - are acting like one - unlike other comments you have made, we've never ever told anyone how should zoners be played - because each defines himself differently - so instead of telling them how zoners work - tell them how as zoners it MIGHT work.
And please stop mentioning our names, its insulting my intelligence.

The concept is the Republic of Equestri-- [ throat turning inside out-noises ]
*ahem* The concept is that, with a re-skin.
Honestly, zoner factions are a bit of a hot-topic right now, and theres enough zoner factions to go around as it is. Theres plenty of other in-game factions that need some love y'know?
