Arcae Federal Union (A.F.U)

You found a strange page...

This page is a WIP (Work In Progress). The content inside it might be inaccurate or incomplete.

The Arcae Federal Union also known as the AFU, was initially a union between the 2 nations, Port Sagittae, and Mensae Federal Republic.

Current national flag

Currently the AFU's member states also include other nations such as Laproton, Persys, and Ports, thought the exact lines between subdivisions is often blurry.

Flag

The flag was designed by Ezed21 with the goal of creating an appealing fusion between the flags of the Mensae Federal Republic and Port Sagittae.

Cities, Settlements, and Colonies

Port Sagittae 4

Port Sagittae 4 as of 2/4/25

While there have been 3 other Port Sagittaes ever since alpha 6, Port Sagittae 4 (PS4) is the biggest and most recent. It is currently the AFU's capital and largest city. The city is currently being renovated to bring it up to more modern standards.

The city was founded during the very start of Alpha 9, with the city being planned with that update's ore buff in mind. During the summer of 2025 the city reached its peak player count of 18 players online when Adam Hase dropped by to visit.

Starting Christmas break of 2025 right after the addition of the paintbucket tool, the renovation began which is still ongoing.

Controversy

Considering the merger, despite being somewhat publicly planned for months, was between a then growing minor power and dead city, the explosive growth that resulted from said merger caused a large upset in the defacto balance of power, as Senno/Vamani was (at the time) dethroned as the dominant galactic power until it later responded with the formation of Arvolis. While this upset on its own definitely wouldn't have been too much of a big deal on its own, many of the AFU's members, both old and new, became arrogant with this new dominant position. Excessive flexing became a problematic trend among prominent members of the nation which resulted in a lot of backlash from more established members of the larger sidereal community. While much of this arrogance and excessing flexing has since subsided, some of these established sidereal community members still hold a negative bias against the nation and visa versa.
