Imagine a trading org so upright, so morally erect, so especially sanctified… that’s Space LLC. We’re the cosmic equivalent of a choir boy’s diary, trading goods with such moral rectitude, you’d think we invented space ethics. Join us, where every deal is as clean as the Hurston family’s ledgers.
2940 – The Birth of Virtue in the Void
Space LLC was founded by a group of interstellar idealists who believed that space commerce could be both profitable and pristine. Their first trade? A shipment of ethically sourced space potatoes harvested on a rented plot in Stanton IV (MicroTech), marking the beginning of a legacy in legal dealings. The potatoes weren’t just a novelty—they symbolized a commitment to fair trade in an era when Hurston Dynamics and ArcCorp cornered markets with cutthroat practices.
2942 – The Great Space Audit
After a year of operations, Space LLC underwent a voluntary audit by the Galactic Trade Commission (GTC), setting a new standard for transparency in space commerce. Their meticulous records, powered by a proprietary MobiGlas app co-developed with MicroTech, showcased not only their compliance but their commitment to integrity. They passed with flying colors, earning them the nickname “The Choir Boys of the Cosmos.” Crusader Industries even mentioned Space LLC as a “model partner” in a public address.
2945 – The Expansion Era
Expanding beyond their humble beginnings, Space LLC opened trading posts in major systems like Terra, ArcCorp Area 18, and Port Olisar. They always ensured that every transaction was as clean as a comet’s tail, gaining favor even with the United Empire of Earth (UEE), who granted them exclusive trading permits on Vega II (Aremis). Their focus on legal dealings earned them alliances with Crusader Security and even begrudging nods from the Bounty Hunters Guild.
2946 – The Ethical Trade Alliance
Space LLC spearheaded the formation of the Ethical Trade Alliance (ETA), a coalition of traders committed to fair practices across the galaxy. Tumbril Land Systems was among their first major backers, citing shared values of innovation and responsibility. The ETA’s influence grew rapidly, making shady dealings less fashionable than a Vanduul’s haircut. Meanwhile, Space LLC coined a phrase that would become their rallying cry: “We trade like the Advocacy is always watching.”
2948 – The Compliance Crusade
The Compliance Crusade was Space LLC’s most ambitious project yet, aiming to educate traders across the galaxy on the importance of legal trade. Workshops were held in Lorville, New Babbage, and even remote outposts like Levski. Space LLC’s MobiGlas integration became the gold standard for tracking ethical transactions. Pilots, haulers, and merchants began adopting their system, effectively creating a digital “code of conduct” for the stars. Drake Interplanetary, however, politely declined.
2952 – The Scandal that Wasn’t
In 2090, whispers of scandal surfaced, accusing Space LLC of trafficking black market Xi’an quantum drives. The Advocacy launched an investigation, but Space LLC’s airtight records cleared their name within a week. In fact, Space LLC had provided intelligence that led to the arrest of several Nine Tails operatives, further cementing their reputation for integrity. The incident earned them a commendation from the UEE Senate, with Senator Mira Ngo praising their “unwavering commitment to justice.”
2954 – A Beacon of Honesty in the Stars
Today, Space LLC stands as a beacon of honesty in the cosmos. Their name is synonymous with trust and transparency, trading in goods as wholesome as a Ranta Dumpling from New Babbage’s Wally’s Bar. Every transaction is documented meticulously, designed to withstand scrutiny by future generations of space historians. Their motto? “In space, no one can hear you commit fraud.”
With allies like Crusader Industries and MicroTech, and partnerships that stretch to the Banu Protectorate, Space LLC has proved that honor and commerce can share the same flight path.
Taxation is theft. Act accordingly.
I. Trade Like You’re Being Watched – Because in space, someone probably is.
II. Keep It Visibly Legal – If it’s looks shady, it’s not our trade. We’re the only traders in the galaxy who make tax evasion look boring.
III. Transparency is Our Middle Name – And yes, it’s legally binding. Our books are so open, they might as well be a comic strip.
IV. Fair Trade or No Trade – We treat every deal like it’s with our own alien step-cousin. Everyone gets a fair shake, even if they have tentacles.
V. Sustainability Over Stardust – We recycle everything, even our mistakes. Our carbon footprint is smaller than a Microtech nano-chip.
VI. Educate, Don’t Intimidate – We’re here to teach the galaxy that ethics can be as profitable as smuggling, but with less risk of getting shot.
VII. Zero Tolerance for Being Caught in Corruption – We’re publicly cleaner than a newly terraformed planet.
