Entire Federation fleets were obliterated at the hands of the merciless rebels. The resulting war was absolutely horrifying. Things could not possibly get any worse for these poor souls that only wanted equality for all.Ī large armada of like-minded human extremists who believed that the human race ascended all others took the opportunity to strike while the Federation was at its weakest. With the number of loyal colonies dwindling daily, the United Federation now began to find itself more and more alone in a hostile universe. More and more colonies all across various civilian sectors started to revolt against the United Federation in their own ways, some ceasing trade and others going to such extremes as to bomb entire Federation hangar bays, racking up more and more casualties and inevitably forcing the Federation to pull out of some sectors altogether. The mess of galactic politics, miniature uprisings, and the escalation of multiple human extremist groups into power all proved to be more and more difficult for the limited power of the Federation to deal with, nonetheless with not very adequate results. The years before the rebellion were the most difficult the men, women, and creatures of the various species making up the United Federation had ever faced.
