At a Glance
The Interstellar Trade Alliance is a loose confederation of species homeworlds, colonies and trade outposts throughout the Rimward and Trailing side of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. They claim political neutrality with most of the quadrants' major powers, and are on friendly terms with the United Federation of Planets. The Interstellar Trade Alliance is not a political entity like the Federation, but an economic and trade alliance. Similar to the Federation, species join by agreeing to conduct themselves under a set of fair trade guidelines- most of which would be considered ethical by the Federation. Member worlds that don't abide by the fair trade practices can be put on probation, censured or expelled from the trade alliance.
Unlike the Federation, the Interstellar Trade Alliance has no official force of a military nature, and Captains can outfit their vessels with weaponry as they see fit. Interstellar Trade Alliance ships are open to interspecies mingling on ships, but for the most part individual species run their own trade vessels. Their primary competitors are the Orion Free Trade Consortium.
