Overview
Early Years
Born in the waning years of Alessandro Steiner's reign, the movement is centered on the Alarion Province planet of Novara, a world noted for its extremely liberal democratic government. Spending most of its early years attempting to lobby and support politicians on Tharkad who shared its view, [2] by the era of the Lyran Alliance the movement had switched its strategy to one of grass-root expansion, sending advocates to worlds across the entire breadth of the Lyran realm in an attempt to convince local governments to adopt a more egalitarian system. [1]
While only experiencing moderate success, by 3067 the movement enjoyed substantial support on many worlds of the Alarion Province, especially near the Rim Collection, a nation Democracy Now's then-leader Kalvin Strauss hailed as prime example of the nature of government Strauss envisioned for the Lyran nation.
