Line 33:
* The Rebel Alliance in ''[[Star Wars]]'' is halfway between [[La Résistance]] and this trope. In the [[Expanded Universe]], they get all the way there, becoming the New Republic. Eventually they make peace with the main faction of what's left of [[The Empire]], and according to some of the latest books they merge with it into the Galactic Federation.
** In the prequels, a villainous example was the Confederacy of Independent Systems, or Separatist Alliance. Made up of the Trade Federation, Banking Clan, Techno Union, Commerce Guild, and Retail Caucus, they were, as their names suggested, an alliance of [[Mega Corp]]s headed by [[Corrupt Corporate Executive|corrupt leaders]] motivated mostly by greed, although [[The Man Behind the Man| Palpatine was secretly guiding them for his own reasons.]]
** If the Expanded Universe is any guide, the Rebel Alliance may be ''The'' Alliance by the time of the movies. Specifically, it states the Alliance to be a grouping of several different resistance movements, the largest (all led by former Republic senators) being those from Alderaan, Corellia and Chandrila, who band together under the Corellian Treaty (as seen in [[The Force Unleashed]]).
