Volgograd Industrial Overview Wrote:Volgograd Industrial is one of the only entities allowed in space within the Coalition that is not directly controlled by the SCRA, as it is a state-owned corporation formed by the Duma. The primary focus of Volgograd Industrial is to provide a platform with which the Coalition can conduct trade with its allies and other neutral parties. While it may seem contrary to its beliefs, it has often been thought of as a necessary evil in order to ensure the longevity of the Coalition and its ideals.
Volgograd Industrial used to go by the name of Violet Industries when it dealt outside of the Coalition and it has often traded with the Houses in secret in order to bring goods into the Coalition that could otherwise not be acquired. While this move was seen as controversial, any opposition was quickly silenced when the quality of life improved dramatically as the Coalition's economy was bolstered by the influx of raw materials and other components.
Volgograd Industrial also operates a small mining division in the southern parts of Sirius and is sometimes seen further north depending on the circumstances. It has negotiated with parties friendly to the Coalition in order to secure partnerships and cooperative agreements. Trading is the organizations primary focus, but since obtaining mining vessels, it has a secondary focus on further expanding current and future mining operations.
Because of its contact with possibly corrupting capitalistic influences, the SCRA keeps a close eye on the organization as a whole as well as each individual pilot. If there is even a hint of corruption, the people involved are removed from the organization permanently and sent for "re-education".
