Confederation

The Confederation was a political power that existed outside of the Mutter's Spiral, presumably as part of the Five Galaxies. It erected toll ports throughout the galaxies, using the money to put up barriers against dangerous hyper-bypasses. Countless species presumably made up the Confederation, or at least used the tolls, including the Solterns, the Giboks, the Wormese, the Navarinos, and the Tollmaster's people. Based on the paintwork of toll port G715, the Confederation was at least two thousand years old. (PROSE: Delta and the Bannermen)
