<blockquote>
This report presents the latest data on expansion and withdrawal among the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to have expanded into new systems:

Branglal PLC

Bodb Dearg Order

Sesmu Incorporated

Ahayus Syndicate

Any Kutjara Legal Incorporated

Djinaura Brotherhood

Mbayame Domain

Quiness Crimson Legal Solutions

Meiri Blue Crew

Marquis du Unuteniling

Expansions occur when a minor faction reaches a sufficient level of influence and there is a populated system within striking distance. Expansion is costly, so when a faction expands, the wealth and development level of the system it controls are temporarily reduced.

Here are the latest factions in withdrawal:

Ross 754 Labour

i Bootis Democrats

Workers of TZ Arietis Democrats

Confederation of Dahan

Peng Dung Jet Creative Network

Leaders of LFT 1404

Aisoci Empire League

Movement for Tobarci Confederacy

Allied Lacabil Conservatives

HIP 113010 Empire Assembly

Factions are considered to be in withdrawal if their level of influence within a system drops below a certain level. If the faction's influence remains low for a total of five days, the faction must leave the system entirely. If the faction manages to increase its level of influence, it remains in the system.
