Confederate-Union Alliance of 18 BBY

"I know you are still upset at losing us, but now you must put aside your hard feelings for the common good, in case it has escaped your notice but a very powerful foreign enemy is currently invading our planet, we must stand together in order to repel this enemy, or else we fall, like dominoes, one by one."

- President of the Confederacy Jane Zarkan appealing to the Union Senate to ally with the Confederacy

The Confederate-Union Alliance of 18 BBY was a short-lived alliance between the Confederate States of Earth and the Union of Earth States, the alliance was born out of the Imperial invasion of Earth in 18 BBY, the Confederacy called on the Union to put aside their differences to unite against the common enemy.

The alliances only lasted mere weeks before the Union of Earth States fell to the Empire and was reorganized as the Earth Empire puppet state, resulting in the alliance being annulled and the Confederate forces withdrawing from former Union territories in order to defend their own nation, the Confederacy feel several months later.
