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:

39 Tauri Interstellar

LHS 1110 Patron's Principles

Njundji Alliance

Leschanatya Future

Coalition of Bodedi

League of Ch'i Lin Freedom Party

Tatapai Empire Assembly

Duduseklis Empire League

Cordenet Group

Egovi Dominion

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:

Labour of Ethgreze

LP 811-17 Gold Energy Partners

Kuwemargl Patrons of Law

Thiin Gold Netcoms Interstellar

Baraswar Crimson Vision Ltd

Peng Dung Jet Creative Network

United Nang Ta-khian Confederacy

NLTT 8653 Empire Consulate

Serrot Blue General Group

Gilyadar Services

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.
