A confederacy comprised of several (non-Astral) Elven, Hadozan, and Gnomish states. The Confederacy has participated in several battles against the Holy Elven Empire and Gwyndalin Federation for control of Realmspace, but have never officially declared war on either kingdom.
Their most hated enemy is the Scro, who survived several atrocities committed by the Confederacy to eliminate all Scro from Wildspace. These crimes against humanity eventually led to the Scro joining the ranks of the Gwyndalin Empire for refuge.
The Confederacy is an authoritarian military state with a focus on keeping a strong navy and enforcing the Queen Ruler's law across the lands. Due to the Elven origins of its creation, the Union practices a very cautious and isolationist policy line that advocates for decades, even generations, of discussion, lobbying, and debate before any offensive action is officially taken by its Navy. This passive neutrality in most engagements may sound peaceful at first, but this same isolationist neutrality is what allows many atrocities to continue within and without the Union's borders. Many nations join the Union for the stability such long-term considerations bring - others, for that same "stability"'s habit of turning a blind eye to terrible crimes.
Most deities of the Union's pantheon come from the Elven origins of the nation, but over the last few hundred years a few Gnome gods have been officially recognized by Her Royal Highness.
