Civil wars involve conflict between minor factions in the same system over ownership of major assets such as starports. During civil wars, only combat missions and activities help bring the conflict to a resolution. Security, development level and standard of living indicators all drop for the duration of the civil war.

Here are 10 of the 5,890 minor factions at war:

Traditional Alkabalavs Freedom Party

HIP 18714 Electronics Holdings

Ross 765 Systems

Workers of Hach Resistance

Brazilian League of Pilots

HIP 5623 Empire Group

Ross 112 Industry

LTT 11103 Jet Legal Corporation

League of Ishtar

LP 308-10 Blue Electronics

Wars occur when a minor faction invades another star system. For the duration of the conflict, wealth, security and standard of living are all severely impacted. Combat missions and activities determine who wins the war. If no winner emerges, the war ends in a ceasefire.

Last week, the Sirius Corporation launched a search for the remains of the Antares, an innovative passenger liner that disappeared during its maiden voyage in 3251. The initiative piqued the interest of the galactic community, and hundreds of independent pilots took part in the search, scouring the galaxy for remains of the lost ship.

Today, the Sirius Corporation confirmed that it has received thousands of tonnes of space-borne debris, and that it would soon begin analysing the wreckage to determine its origin. Li Yong-Rui, CEO of Sirius Gov, released a brief statement to the media:

"The galactic community has responded to our appeal with great enthusiasm, and we are extremely grateful to all those who took part in the search. Now we must analyse the debris to determine whether any of the wreckage delivered to us is from the Antares. We will make a further announcement as soon as our analysis is complete. Our hope is that the fate of the Antares will not remain a mystery much longer."

Clauss Incorporated has announced that its recent appeal for Special Gifts has been warmly received by the galactic community, with hundreds of pilots taking to their ships to transport the requested commodities from Frost Dock in the Njambalba system to Clauss Port in Santa Muerte. Nicolas St Clauss, the CEO of Clauss Incorporated, released a brief statement:

"It warms my heart to see so many people giving to their fellow citizens, and helping us spread joy throughout the galaxy. I'd like to thank all those who contributed to this appeal."

In addition to offering participants generous financial incentives, Clauss Incorporated also gave away hundreds of free ships to pilots who contributed to the appeal.

With the end of the year less than a week away, preparations for New Year celebrations are in full swing throughout the galaxy. One of the most notable is the forthcoming party from Independent Cherets Labour, an organisation based in the Cherets system. According to a recent press release, the organisation has issued an open contract for fireworks with which to mark the start of 3302. But not just any fireworks. Anduliga fireworks.

"If you really want to start the New Year with a bang, you need fireworks. But I'm not talking about those namby-pamby firecrackers you get in Alioth or Achenar. I'm talking about the bone-rattling, teeth-loosening explosives you find in Anduliga. That's why we're offering rewards to anyone who brings Anduliga Fireworks to us here at Buckey Hub."

Independent Cherets Labour has also asked for combat pilots to clear the spaceways of Cherets, to ensure the safety of those delivering fireworks to Buckey Hub. "Anyone who hands in bounty vouchers will be generously compensated," the organisation confirmed.

The appeal begins today and is scheduled to run until the 7th of January.

In the early hours of tomorrow morning (7.00am GMT), the GalNet monitoring of powers' activities will go offline for a short period while the latest data is assembled.

Any pilots who operate for one of the powers must deliver any cargo or vouchers before this time to ensure their activities are registered.

In this weekly report, the latest GalNet data is assembled to present ten minor factions experiencing civil unrest or lockdown in their systems.

Here are 10 of the 1,592 minor factions in lockdown:

Ross 41 Industry

Nan Hsie Prison Colony

Kuan Gu aristocrats

47 Ceti Citizens' Forum

Revolutionary Party of Erivit

Revolutionary Party of Wichaimi

Kinne Blue Boys

LP 417-213 Power Solutions

Lovedu Blue Major Inc

People's Party of Huaich

Lockdowns increase the security rating for a system but also have a negative effect on the system's wealth. Increased bounty hunting activity can shorten the lockdown period.

Here are 10 of the 1,510 minor factions experiencing civil unrest:

Julung Society

LP 542-33 Front

BD-00 4461 Jet Transport Systems

Neperimpox Jet Fortune Ind

LP 102-320 Blue State Partners

Barons of Wirang

HIP 26926 Exchange

Democrats of Vetr

Galouri People's Party

7 Alpha Lacertae Dominion

Civil unrest is caused by illegal activity within the system as well completing contracts from more nefarious sources. The wealth rating and standard of living will suffer when a system contains civil unrest. Combat missions and activities can be utilised to end civil unrest.

In this weekly digest, the latest GalNet data is compiled to show the economic state of a short list of minor factions and the star systems they inhabit.

Here are 10 of the 11,053 minor factions currently enjoying an economic boom:

LHS 6128 Blue Investments Corp.

Bonitou Jet General Network

Avaticus Crimson Crew

Tepi Services

Wolf 1431 Purple Partnership

Cartel of Galandandes

Belaba United

LTT 135 Empire Consulate

LHS 2405 Jet Allied Co

Blue Major Exchange

When in boom, the wealth of a system is increased for the duration and all trade missions have double the effect on influence. Boom can also positively increase a minor faction's influence. Boom can be entered by consistent trade profits and completed trade contracts. Booms tend to last until they naturally expire or until some other indicator takes precedence, such as famine.

Here are 10 of the 1,304 factions currently experiencing economic bust:

Toco Silver Comms Network

Order of Njorog

United Tellus Order

Bylgit Boys

Bragur United Group

TZ Arietis Purple Council

Narakapani One

Apurui Citizens' Forum

HIP 51197 Central Services

Kruger 60 and Co

The wealth of a system diminishes while in bust and the minor faction's influence is also lessened. The effect of trade contracts and actions do not contribute to boom while a bust is active. A bust generally has to run its course before ending.

Each week, GalNet presents a list of 10 of the 1,651 minor factions currently expanding into new systems.

Thiana United Group

Regir Purple Legal PLC

Revolutionary HR 6649 Republic Party

Alliance of Cileni

LP 694-16 Crimson Legal Ind

Green Party of Dulos

Guangngel Freedom Party

Prahlang PLC

United Barillian Labour

Revolutionary Betseoltana Future

Expansion occurs when a minor faction reaches a sufficient influence rating and there is a populated system within striking distance. The act of expansion is a costly one, and the wealth and development rating suffers during the period of expansion.
