Expansion Region Authority

The Expansion Region Authority was the government controlling the Expansion Region for the Galactic Republic. Unlike their nearby larger neighbor, the Outer Rim Alliance, the Authority had more control over their territories than the Alliance did, and received more support from the Republic, due to the fact it was closer to the Core Worlds. It was invaded by the Rakatan Empire in 15,100 BBY. Eventually, the Republic liberated it, but not after a bloody conflict. It is unknown wether the Authority was restored after the war.
