Originally founded in 2387 by James Allen Schorn, the United Solar System Collective (USSC), spread the message of uniting around a central governmental figure throughout the entire Solar System and to neighboring colonies in other nearby solar systems.
Support for this form of government was met with mixed reactions. While the civilizations on the inner planets and on the moons of Jupiter generally agreed with this form of government, the civilizations living on the moons of the other outer planets felt that this government could be too rash. Support towards this government by the colonies in other solar systems was also mixed.
Since the previous forms of government on the individual inner planets had been dictatorships that were weakened by wars between the inner planets it was rather easy for the USSC to gain power and begin its take over, which took place in 2388 on Mars.
In 2390 the USSC began producing mass weaponry and began spraying their crops with the chemical TD90, a highly addictive drug, in order to "convert" more colonists.
By 2407 the USSC had control of all the inner planets and all the moons of Jupiter. Their military power and army size cast a giant shadow on all of the outer colonies.
In 2415 dictator Schorn launched a full-on invasion against the outer planets and against PRT.
