A New War and Another 10 Years Term.

[Terra Invicta: Echoes of Defiance Lore is in Effect and on plans for Rewriting.]

Jacqueline is walking to the Grand Federal Congress on the Moon, already suffering from a headache due to her heavy paperwork. This situation has become even more taxing.

Not only has she and her Phoenix Party won the 2nd Term with a 34% against the Order of Sakura's Kentaro Nishikawa at 25%, with the RSH's Erika Waltraud Veronica at 30%, Xianzhou Jiguang Junta at 10%, and the Old Guards' Vinzenz Sigismund at 1%.

But also an Insurrection of the Old Guard, their ingrained hatred for Humanity becoming 'weak' and 'impure' by becoming an Intergalactic Republic with many races in their Home Systems. And by impure...

Jacuqline's POV...

"Not only those sick, son of bitches are Supremacists and Psychopaths... They're just as Cruel as the Nazis from WW2... Can you imagine it, Kevin...?" Jacqueline, in her Quarters... telling Kevin via a Quantum Phone Call. "They know the crimes, yet they see it as a necessary evil..."

"I can tell..." Kevin expresses that he shares the same dislikes as his second wife. "We primarily rely on volunteer forces, along with some conscription. However, they are planning to implement a Levée en masse, which is exclusively male-dominated. It's frustrating. Take our daughter, Jessalyn Parker, for example. She is in the Girl Scouts and shows great potential, yet the Old Guard rejects her simply because she is a girl."

"Argh... You tell me..." Jaqueline agreed. "And now they're throwing an insurrection against us, all because our Blood is tainted by the genetics of other species, and humans that are not Pure Solaris Blood..."

"I'll deal with those Fascists at the Vetka Systems. Just mobilize the Federal Military if you can." Kevin added.

"Understood. Please prioritize your safety. If the system proves to be irreparable, proceed to a secure location. There is no discredit in retreating when circumstances warrant such action." - Jaqueline.

"Got it." Kevin accepted.

And the phone call ends, with that... She entered the Congress, as usual; multiple political factions were considering ways to counter the old guards, who've now named themselves the Solar Imperium. The Sakurian Order wanted to have the leaders put under the control of the Psychic Powers, especially Takara's faction and the Sakura's Harbingers. However, seeing that they're viewed as traitors as well as the RSH and 'fat cats' of the Phoenix Party... and other 'colorful' insults directed at any 'impure' races, even towards the SFRI...

Jaqueline could only sigh and continued her walk to the President's Table, with her Vice-President, Natalia Victoria, a Russian Australian.

She arrived and the whole Grand Congress got silent... She let out her speech.

"Esteemed Senators, Representatives, and Supreme Judges of the Great Federation, we find ourselves in an unprecedented crisis, the likes of which we have not encountered since the Terra Invicta War. This situation has been designated the Great Cleansing. However, we are acutely aware of one fundamental reality: we are engaged in a galactic conflict against the Imperium."

They were silent, but they all agreed that the Imperium must not survive.

"We've to win, no matter the cost... They will not stop until they fall or we fall. They will not stop until they've achieved their Intergalactic Extermination of all Non-Human and 'Impure' Humans. And we will not let them do so until we've won. So, as of today..."

"I hereby announce the implementation of Extensive Conscription, the expansion of the Militia, and the Total Mobilization of both Military and Civilian Industries. This includes the adoption of Resolution 1100, which permits an additional allocation of funds for Military Research, the Recruitment of Soldiers, and the Production of Combat Droids and Clone Troopers. Although this is a decision I find challenging to accept, it is necessary given the current circumstances."

"With that said, I challenge each of you to consider this," Jacqueline concluded with conviction. "The Sons and Daughters of the Federation are ready to stand steadfastly for our cause. We will confront the tyranny of the Solar Imperium, which seeks to eliminate those they label as 'impure.' Together, we will fight for a Multiverse that celebrates diversity and ensures that only pure-hearted ideals prevail!"

We call on all citizens of the Federation to stand strong against the Imperials and their damaging ideologies. Together, we will uphold our principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity with unwavering determination!

"Are you all with me?!"

Another Silence... But this time... They all chanted...

"Down with the Imperium! Long live the Stars of Freedom!"

The chant resonated powerfully around her. She could hear it from everyone, feeling it echo across the Universe and throughout the System. At that moment, she realized that although she may no longer have popular support, they accepted her determination to defend their homeland.

Thus, while the Solar Imperium labeled it an Intergalactic Purification War, the Federation viewed it as a War of Moral Intervention against the Imperium's prejudiced and medieval ideals.

Today. At 01/09/2055...

[The United Solar Systems Federation declares war against the Holy Solar Imperium.]

And not only the news of the War has reached Galaxy Wise in their Home Galaxy...

Across the vast reaches of the cosmos, other interstellar civilizations have taken note of the recent declaration of war. The United Solar Systems Federation, staunchly rooted in its Libertarian and Federalist ideals, champions the principles of Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity. These values form the backbone of their societal structure, mirroring the foundational ethos enshrined in the United States Constitution. Their governance promotes individual freedoms while emphasizing collaborative federalism, ensuring that diverse planetary member states maintain autonomy within a unified framework.

In stark contrast stands the Holy Solar Imperium, an autocratic regime driven by deep-seated xenophobia and a feudalistic hierarchy. The Imperium's ruling elite cling to the vision of a so-called "Purified Empire," one that seeks to eradicate all traces of non-human entities—referred to derogatorily as 'Xenos'—as well as those deemed 'Impure' among humanity itself. This draconian pursuit of homogeneity and supremacy fuels their militaristic ambitions, fostering an atmosphere of fear and oppression as they strive to dominate any who stand in opposition to their vision of societal perfection.

The impending conflict thus pits these two fundamentally opposing worldviews against each other, setting the stage for a war that will reverberate across the stars.

For today... War has cometh.
