Ylesian Senate
this was the name of the governing body of the planet Ylesia, after it had been taken over by the Peace Brigade. Originally known as the Alliance of Twelve, the Senate was composed of some sixty members at its height. Despite the name "Senate", the group was made up of a wide variety of criminals and renegades who were constantly fighting over their own agendas. Thrackan Sal-Solo, after being named President of Ylesia and Commander in Chief of the Peace Brigade by Supreme Overlord Shimrra, took control of the Senate in an effort to focus the activities of the Peace Brigade. The Senate, however, didn't like the fact that they had to answer to Sal-Solo, and formed a temporary alliance to bring about his downfall. The Senate, when combined with Sal-Solo as President, formed the so-called Ylesian Republic.
