Formation
Luna was an independent country defensive alliance [1] It's aims, according to the Luna Introduction [1] were:
- To build a community;
- Prevent Political Take-Overs;
- To defend alliance members.
It aimed to succeed where such alliances as ONE and Sol both failed, as "ineffective 'neutral' alliance[s]".
Naming and Logo
Although the alliance was formed, the name and logo were both placeholders, open to changes. The name Luna was initially chosen for a number of reasons:
- It is the opposite of Sol, the Sun, or the embodiment of everything gone wrong in an alliance.
- It 'fits' with other eRep alliance names: ATLANTIS, the sea; Terra, the earth; EDEN, the biosphere; Sol, the sun; and Luna, the moon.
- It highlights the fact that the alliance "can into space".
- It is a simplistic and easy-to-draw object (the moon).
- "It signifies the dream that followed the various moon landings—the only place Man has gone in space, beyond its home planet, and arguably its greatest accomplishment as a species. For how long has your nation been dreaming of having true friends that will stick by you? I want to make that happen for all of us." [1]
Member Nations
