Lonestar is a nation on Horizon's End. It is best known for its starship production, neutrality, and friendliness towards new players. The nation's capital is the settlement texas.

History

Founded on October 19th 2024 by SIG130, lonestar is a large faction with a balanced economy and military. Its capital, texas, dedicated itself to recruiting and training new players. After a brief period as an autonomous member of Radiance, texas became independent and founded a nation grounded in neutrality. Its current leader is XiJinping_, the president of China itself.

Since its founding, lonestar has balanced itself around military and industrial growth. Lonestar forces have participated in a number of anti-piracy engagements as well as starship construction for clients ranging from larger factions to individual entrepreneurs.

On December 1, 2024, leadership of lonestar was passed to XiJinping_. He quickly began to implement sweeping reforms, most notably including a rapid militarization effort, the production of a modernized war fleet, cessation of active Texas recruitment, the initialization of a supercapital program, and the full subsidization of lonestar member settlements Aarmance and Elodia, as well as appointing Aarmance governor Gvazdika to the Lonestar Executive Panel.
