Overview

Electus Matari is an independent capsuleer organization loyal to the Minmatar Republic and operating for the most part in tribal space (Heimatar, Metropolis, Molden Heath, The Great Wildlands). Most of EM's operations concentrate on combat activities against pirates, extortionists and those who imagine they can claim Republic space for solely their own use.

Electus Matari's executive power is solely in the hands of Gradient, the only corporation in the cluster that has demonstrated the a long-term, unwavering support for the Minmatar Republic, regardless of its current internal politics or tribal balance of power.

Some highlights on history

Work in progress --Elsebeth Rhiannon (talk) 08:30, 10 May 2019 (CDT)

Origins and principles

Electus Matari was officially founded in 107.08.27 by like minded Matari corporations (Gradient, Minmatar United Freedom Front, Liberal Trading Co, Minmatar Marines, Mercenaryz, Void Spiders, Frogly Enterprises, FarCry Inc, and Thrace Inc) to provide a more structured industrial and logistic capacity to the The Republic and to assist government organizations such as The Republic Fleet, The Republic Justice Department, and The Republic Security Services[1]. Along with the industrial and logistic support to the Minmatar Republic, EM was also chartered to actively defend the citizens, assets, and territory of the Minmatar Republic from all threats internal and external, while supporting the human rights and liberties of all Matari including those currently living in foreign captivity.

Since its formation, Electus Matari has faced ups and downs[2][3][4], disbanded and reformed, but constantly strived to work and fight for the free tribes. The alliance has always had the policy of allowing temporary memberships and periodic absences from the alliance to pursue other interests, meaning that the core group of corporations has shifted several times. Since its conception though Electus Matari has remained in the Republic Space, concentrating its operations there, and worked in various ways for the end of slavery and for keeping the Republic safe. Throughout the turbulent politics of the Minmatar Republic, while allowing individual capsuleers to voice varying opinions, the alliance itself has refrained from taking stances for or against any individual leader of the Republic, instead remaining loyal to the nation itself.

Vitoxin research

Electus Matari, especially Re-Awakened Technologies, was heavily involved in the development of a Vitoxin cure[5]. While calls for Republic[6] or the Sisters of EVE[7] to publicly assist in the research went largely unanswered due to security reasons, Electus Matari was working on crucial parts of the related basic science. Most of the publicly available research into Vitoc today was originally based on and, after secrecy was no longer necessary[8], published by Electus Matari members[9].

Antislavery work, and the slaver wars of YC109

In addition to the Vitoxin research, Electus Matari member corporations have always been involved in anti-slavery in more direct manners, especially prevention of illegal slave trade by the Empire, and bringing refugees across the border into Republic space[10][11][12].

In YC108, after EM was accused many times of harboring freedom fighters and did not take too much care to vehemently deny it[13], PIE Inc declared war on the alliance[14][15]. These hostilities quickly spread as both Minmatar[16][17][18] and Amarr[19] [20], and even some Caldari[21][22], organizations got involved with the fighting. In February YC109, Electus Matari was involved with a notorious smuggling group The Wolves of Pator[23][24], which did not help calm down the escalation.

These wars stretched for over a year, on and off, involving various groups and alliances, and since then Electus Matari has regularly been in a way with slaver organizations.

A fracturing people

These wars were not uncomplicated Amarr vs Minmatar escalations, though. Amidst the fighting, Karishal Muritor was finally captured and executed by the Republic Fleet[25]. The Minmatar Forces known as "Matari Five" fractured, with Ushra'Khan siding with the rebels[26], Fimbulwinter leaving the Republic altogether[27], Electus Matari questioning the Republic's reasoning but remaining loyal[28][29], and Namtz'aar Kin and Fate Weavers siding strongly with the Republic and severing all ties to Ushra'Khan[30][31].

Despite calls for peace and unity[32], also by Electus Matari, [33] the situation escalated both in space and among baseliners[34], encouraged by Ushra'Khan's infamous "1 isk for Midular"[35] campaign and the refusal to co-operate with Electus Matari in arranging a proper burial for Karishal Muritor[36]. Electus Matari's call for a re-election was generally well received[37], but brewing up trouble continued[38], and the Republic was fast spiraling towards a civil war.

Defense of Molden Heath

Anti-piracy in tribal space has been another Electus Matari main goal from the beginning[39]. Electus Matari was one of the alliances active in Molden Heath, as part of such collectives as MH-Sec and Coalition of Antipirates, from YC107 onwards[40]. After the fracturing of the loyalist forces over Karishal Muritor, some reconciliation happened on those operations between the Matari forces, especially after Ushra'Khan lost their station in Providence and joined the fighting in Molden Heath in YC109/09[41]. However, this did not last long, since the close contact between the disagreeing Matari also ripped open the wounds of the Muritor incident[42][43]. A call of what was left of the Defiants to join them in the fighting caught the attention of many, and made Electus Matari clearly and publicly take the stance of following the Republic in the matter[44].

In YC110 when Angels made a claim for Skarkon, Electus Matari was [45][46][47] again strongly voiced its stance that the only party that can own Republic space is the Republic itself.

The Racing League

Several members of Gradient competed in the Racing League in YC109-???, most as part of the Venture Racing team[48][49][50].

Electus Matari in the changing Republic

After Electus Matari had repeatedly voiced its support to the Minmatar Republic against those who defended the acts of Defiants, and for a peaceful resolution of the Starkmanir issue[51] amidst the riots[52]there were those who considered the alliance supporters of prime minister Karin Midular specifically. Thus, in the dramatic events of YC110, where a previously unknown Minmatar force attacked the Empire to recover the Starkmanir[53], officials of the government were found murdered[54], and the Parliament dissolved, many expected EM to take a stance against the new government.

This was a mistaken understanding of the alliance, however. While expressing severe concerns and requests for peaceful and legal transition of power, Electus Matari leadership and members quickly restated that their stance was unchanged and the alliance remained supportive of the Republic itself, not of any particular leader or government[55][56][57]. It was also pointed out by the then leadership, that strictly speaking the 'Elder Fleet' was not a Republic concern at all, as it was not a Republic force, nor apparently hostile to the Republic[58].

"There are a lot of holes here. Questions unanswered. Void where proof should be.
And blood is filling those holes.
But perhaps the saddest thing in all of this is, it doesn't matter.
What's done is done. Our duty now lies with the living, with those who survive."
(Evanda Char, YC110.06.12)[59]
