Foundati0n was an NRDS alliance formed in November 2005 and disbanded in April 2009. The alliance which was based out of Great Wildlands for its entire existance and built a firm reputation for its extensive use of capitals to the displeasure of many of its enemies over the years. Many observers noted the huge range of corporations that Foundation had of various sizes and highlighted the difficulty with which organization and logistics must have been.
Its stance of anti-piracy and NRDS meant FDN had involvement in the neighbouring region of Molden Heath a low-sec area known for its famous anti-pirate efforts, groups such as Beyond Divinity and Infinitus Odium frequently fought FDN and allies such as Namtz'aar k'in in the region.
History
2006
The Great Wildlands region was largely held by Veritas Immortalis, along with Scalding Pass, Foundation fleet presence was limited to roaming gangs and camping the famous entrance to the region, 7Q. At one stage FDN lost access to all three stations in Great Wildlands, traditionally basing from N-DQ and the V-IH pipe.
Both Veritas and Foundation gained an ally in the wildlands as events culminated towards the end of the year, Imperium Alliance stepped in to provide more numbers and pressure on Veritas and INFOD also moved to the region in an attempt to defend Veritas while the bulk of the alliance was away fighting Red Alliance with Lotka Voltera.
Also around this time FDN had several corporations join the alliance, who would go on to become key in future success.
2007
Months of sustained fighting against Infinitus Odium (Video) in Great Wildlands and Veritas Immortalis both away and at home led to an internal collapse largely a result of a Red Alliance resurgance further south and with that INFOD departed the region.
Great Wildlands was split between FDN and Imperium Alliance, with the hint of "Bigger things to come" from IMP.
2008
In the middle of the year, G0RG0N and Borderlands Corp left FDN for Faction Warfare, with little fuss and no statement over the matter. This left alliance leadership to Lord Maldoror in Fairlight who formed a new group for alliance leadership with previous members either leaving or going inactive.
In November Red Alliance dropped their friendly standings with Foundation and commenced hostilities inside Great Wildlands in an attempt to install "pet" alliances there.
In the closing weeks of the year, the release of The Clarion Call a video documenting Foundation's formidable use of capitals and triage specifically to great effect and was widely praised.
2009
In January FDN began working with friendly TCF forces to attack GBC assets in the south however Foundation was only directly involved in one battle in 4-EFLU in which FDN provided a large portion of the capital fleet against EXE and BOB. On the home front, Cult Of War, Foundation, and Vanguard, were defending the Great Wildlands against Red Alliance and their allied efforts in the region.
Internally another reshuffle took place with a change in diplomats and fleet commanders. The diplomat Loafer stole approximately seven billion from the alliance wallet, offlined a POS and worked with RA to steal ships inside and threatened two specific members of the alliance leadership but amounted to nothing, the character was eventually sold on.
FDN was beginning to see success in pushing RA out of the region and was able to pin and destroy a large number of Red Alliance capitals in Y7 in their attempt to defend the POS (Battle Report). Red Alliance offered FDN Scalding Pass on the terms that they were no longer hostile to each other to get involved in the bigger battle in the south, but they changed the terms limiting the area's FDN would own. This led to Operation Cartography being annouced internally, as FDN went on the offensive having pushed RA out of Great Wildlands.
The fight against Red Alliance outside of Great Wildlands, started with an effort to break RA sovereignty in 28Y- which ultimately failed. The aim changed to attack high end RA moons, FDN successfully took a high end in LBC- from Red Alliance however RA called in significant allies in the form of Legion and Shadow of XxdeathxX which turned the tide significantly and forced an end to FDN operations outside of Great Wildlands.
Efforts began to work with Ethereal Dawn and Intrepid Crossing against Red Alliance and their allies, however the alliance disbanded before this could really take place.
In early April, due to internal friction in the region, allied alliance True Reign went hostile to FDN.
Later in the month, the alliance disbanded due to external and internal pressures and changes.
Disbanding
An official announcement on April 11th was provided and meant the closure of FDN. Many of the corporations from the alliance left and joined Republic Alliance, which carried on the FDN ideals of NRDS in Great Wildlands. Others formed Rooks and Kings alliance or joined Cult Of War who also stayed in Great Wildlands.
