The Trade Federation is a commerce guild, trade cartel, and lobbying group that was founded recently as an association of business and trade groups with its own commercial trade fleet. It is lead by the Viceroy, followed by the board of executives. It was formed so that the traders who are members gain more credits than the other traders, and this is done by providing security so that hopefully the federation will become the dominant trading force.
The Trade Federation has 4 divisions: Trade & Logistics, Mercenaries & Bounty Hunters, and security.
Traders form the main bulk of The Trade Federation, meaning that the federation has a huge collective wealth. The traders are from all over Sirius, using a variety of ships and coming from a huge range of corporations.
The security division was formed to protect the traders, who were coming under increased pressure from the many pirate organizations across Sirius.
