<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:

G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

Annarr Dynamic Corp.

Kikians Purple Vision PLC

Betel Free

Jaques

Tian Xian Inc

Labour of Kalads

Movement for Oduwaid Fo Labour

Martio Imperial Society

Djinaura Brotherhood

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:

Kokary Liberals

GCRV 4654 State Interstellar

Labour of Ethgreze

Revolutionary Heheng Future

39 Tauri Interstellar

Labour of Geras

Inupiates Patrons of Law

HR 8170 Brotherhood

HIP 113100 Imperial Society

LHS 3598 Transport Group

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.
