 Crisis of the Confederation (Video Game)
comment
The year is 2998. The Terran Confederation, ostensibly a democratic body governed by an elected President and Senate, has been slowly slipping into an oligarchy controlled from the shadows by individuals with great wealth, power, and influence. In protest, a number of sectors on the periphery have come together in a loose alliance known as the Orion League to demand independence from the Confederation. While the societies that make up the Orion League follow diverse and often radically different creeds, all of them are presently united in the fear that, should the central government on Earth gain too much power, they will lose the liberties that have allowed them to continue practicing their ways of life. Thus, they have decided that the best course is to strike out on their own.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Even the Terran loyalists are divided on the best way to resolve the ongoing crisis. While many remain committed to the federal ideals on which the Confederation was founded, a strong faction supporting greater concentration of power in the central government has recently gained power in the Senate, arguing that the very decentralized nature of the present government is what allowed civil war to break out in the first place. In certain circles some voices dare to venture even more extreme opinions, raising the idea that no republican body can provide the stability and security that comes with the firm hand of a charismatic autocrat...In any case, humanity is on the brink of a massive conflict, the like of which hasn't been seen in almost five centuries — a Crisis of the Confederation.Crisis of the Confederation is a total conversion Game Mod for Crusader Kings II, altering the setting from the medieval world of centuries past to a futuristic setting in interstellar space. The most recent version of the mod as of April 22nd, 2020 (v0.50) is available through either the Steam Workshop or the ModDB project page, and the developers can be contacted on the mod's thread on the Paradox Interactive forums.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Bilingual Bonus: As explained by Word of God here, many factions have names that are Meaningful Names in languages other than English. Most of them are fairly mundane, but one that stands out in particular is Tarka, derived from the tarka sastra Indian school of dialectics that emphasizes logic and reason - an appropriate choice for a faction of Totalitarian Utilitarian Cyborgs.

Apocalypse How: Through the use of Weapons Of Mass Destruction, it's possble to burn the Earth to the ground, wiping out the homeworld's civilization. Such an act will horrify the entire galaxy (except for the Xenoterrans) so badly that your descendants will forever be tainted with the stigma.

The Alliance: The Orion League, a loose alliance of would-be independent worlds in opposition to the Terran Confederation. While the Republic of the Orion Reach is the linchpin of the League, each member is seeking full independence on its own terms.
