The Terran Space Navy was created in 2120 by special appropriation of the Terran Alliance World Parliament.

History

After the establishment of the first colony on New Earth in 2116, thought turned to the protection and maintenance of interstellar colonies. The Terran Alliance appropriated funds in 2120 to start the construction of six military JumpShips over a span of ten years. These ships were conceived as "first responders" to any future interstellar contingency.

The first Terran Space Navy ship, completed in 2122, was christened the TAS Charger.

Following the disaster of the colony ship Liberator in (2128), the Alliance passed the Colonization Procedure Referendum which required all colony ships to be escorted by the Terran Space Navy.

Sometime before 2295, when Admiral James McKenna took command, the Terran Space Navy was renamed the Alliance Global Navy.

2300 saw the launch of the TAS Dreadnought, first true combat warship and flagship of Fleet Admiral McKenna.

At the time of the dissolution of the Terran Alliance there were at least 26 warships as part of the Navy.
