Introduction

Friendly Aliens is a nation consisting of many different alien cultures, which all share the same views concerning the environment and peaceful conduct.

The events that lead to the eventual crash landing into the Alliance of Honourable Peoples have now become to be known as the Friendly Aliens Exodus.

It must be known that these events have changed the ways Friendly Aliens feel about their values therefore it is justified to believe that may not be following the same principles that they were founded upon.

The Friendly Aliens crash landed at about 1943 into the Northern Continent with its massive StarSearcher colony ship. It was luckily in an area mostly unexplored at the time and it was a good six months before contact between Friendly Aliens and Humans began. At which time plans for Friendly Alien's first city Planetfall City was well under development. The shock of such magnificence was probably the reason why first relations were so traumatic. When the expeditionary force first approached they fired in the air believing the aliens to be hostile, scaring the survivors back into the wrecked ship. However Commander Tyrranus V told all of his men to hold fire, he condemned them for their foolish behaviour and walked towards the vessel. The leader of Friendly Aliens and the Commander of the Super Roman Expedition met and good communication developed quickly.

About half a year later the leader of the Friendly Aliens visited Sparta to speak with the Imperator about the current situation. Super Rome was currently at war with Julius Caesar III, Friendly Aliens was not about to enter war a few years after coming to the Alliance but they did understand that they did have an obligation to help. Therefore the Friendly Aliens offered technology and support as well as offering military forces to defend Super Roman territory but not to attack.

With the war with Julius Caesar III over Friendly Alien-Super Roman Relations had boosted considerably leading to an official declaration of borders and trade agreements. Also Friendly Aliens got officially introduced to the governments of surrounding nations like McPsychoville and the governments of the economically strong western continent like Kegmenistan and Jihad Allah or Durkistan. The relationship between Friendly Aliens and Jihad Allah was to become particularly strong.

Over the following years the country started to develop with other super cities like Planetfall being constructed. Dawnea was founded in the south east to be the main city to meet foreigners from the northern continent but due to the lack of natural water supplies this was to be the smallest of the new super cities. Xenoville was founded in the south-west and was planned to be the main cultural city in Friendly Aliens. Finally Hydroville was created to be the main harbour city of the nation and it has the ability to attend to over 1000 super tankers and 2000 smaller cargo vessels. To conserve the environment, land which wasn't set aside of farming and conservation was turned into massive solar fields. This has created the distinctive landscape of Friendly Aliens with one exception.

Due to the seismic disturbances caused by the crash of the StarSearcher. Vast amounts of uranium rich veins of rock have come to the surface of the landscape creating vast caverns full of harmful radioactive ions. This has caused predictable changes to the landscape near these caverns including mutation of local flora and fauna. However radiation also has a positive affect on the Friendly Aliens all species that enter the area with this effect makes the Aliens effectively 'high' it is caused by hormones being released from their brains. This has lead to vast numbers of Friendly Aliens taking residence near these caverns and becoming mutated. The mutation has had different effects on different Aliens but some of the main ones have been categorised in the Mutation Database.

Friendly Aliens used to be a peaceful nation however after the sabotage to the StarSearcher Friendly Aliens has become bitter and realised even though they believe and understand the values of peace other civilisations do not and will not give mercy. Therefore Friendly Aliens has developed a sizable army which is the sixth most well funded in the whole Alliance. It is mostly based around air attack. More can be found out in the Friendly Aliens Military article. Friendly Aliens is a member of the ADF which is a combined force to protect the Alliance.

Friendly Aliens is lead by a single leader who was elected at the first few days of the Planetfall landing, 'he' is called BazZeRg. BazZeRg was on the StarSearcher the equivalent to the First Mate the officer directly below the Captain. He was directly involved in the plan to save as many Aliens as possible before the crash by putting them inside the spaces left vacant by the purged drive. With the plan being a success the survivors elected him as their leader (the Captain died during the crash because 'she' manually guided the ship to the planet). So BazZeRg is the Commander in Chief of the Friendly Aliens Armed Forces and he approves and disapproves laws which are put forward by the elected council which is about 500 hundred Aliens in size (100 for each super city except 200 for Planetfall). Anyone who protests against the rule of BazZeRg is entitled to their own opinion however those who are violent and start mass riots are punished severely.

Friendly Aliens leading industry is in Information Technology which takes full advantage of Friendly Aliens' expert research and development and after that is the Arms Manufacturing Industry which is so strong because it makes weapons for the Friendly Aliens Armed Forces which are not made anywhere else.
