UDP - USS Enterprise

UDP
Abbreviation for United Democratic Planets.
United Democratic Planets (UDP) (179 AI onwards = 2393 AD onwards)
Political alliance of planets. After developing wormhole technology the planet Eden sent starships to contact their neighbours and a weak power bloc with economic ties called the Eden Cluster was formed. Shortly after hearing news of the First Interstellar War the members of the Cluster were spurred into creating a stronger, more organised alliance with military integration. In 179 AI (2393 AD) the United Democratic Planets was formed and the Cluster ceased to exist. The UDP is one of the seven major power blocs.
