13	!Hydronian Empire
14
15	A space-faring empire that was founded by refugees who fled Earth after the initial Corvolt invasion. Having returned to Earth, they do their best to keep the peace on their old homeworld.
16	----
17	* BadassArmy Having faced the Lyvek, the Mobian Empire, the Imperial Guard and so on, by now the Hydronian military definitely qualifies as this.
18	* BulletproofVest Standard issue for the Hydronian Army as well as the Hydronian Marines.
19	* ElectiveMonarchy - Although the Hydronian government is elective, the formerly hereditary title of "Emperor" is still what their main leaders are called.
20	* ETGaveUsWifi The Hydronians have a habit of reverse engineering any enemy weapon technologies they can get their hands on. This has ranged to weapons to- in the case of their troop transport ships - entire warships.
21	* HighlyConspicuousUniform Like the Liberators, the Hydronians have a theme color- blue- and BDU's and armor to match. This is starting to be subverted though, with Hydronian colors being grey, black and white with blue highlights.
22	* MulticulturalAlienPlanet - The Hydronians trade with a number of races [Even after the war with the Lyvek, they were willing to trade with the Lyvek run Ishuda Industrial Pantheon] and encourage tourism and immigration.
23	* NamedAfterTheirPlanet - This goes without saying. Hydronian, Hydronia.
24	* PeaceConference Hydronians tend to run a lot of these, and almost always attend the ones that other factions set up. This has been a trait in both the West and GC Campaigns.
25	* PerfectPacifistPeople Outside of warfare, the Hydronians are a peaceful, diplomatic people. This has actually gotten them into trouble before, with them briefly allying with both the communist COTR and the ultrafascist/capitalist FSA in the West Campaign before they realized what these factions were like.
26	* WeWillWearArmorInTheFuture Some infantry units in the Hydronian military fit this trope, including the Stormtroopers, Heavy Marines, and their ODST's.
27	----
28	The list of CO's and main characters of the Hydronians
29	----
30	!! Supreme Commander Nicolas Ozzel
31	Nicolas Ozzel is a veteran from the war that began when the Lyvek invaded Hydronia. By the time the first Hydronian fleet arrived at Earth, he was an Admiral. He was eventually promoted to Supreme Commander of all Hydronian forces in the Sol System, and through extenuating circumstances where the empire was destroyed, had to take on the position of Emperor of the Hydronian Remnant on Earth for a short time.
32	----
33	* AFatherToHisMen: He isn't afraid to express shock or sadness, and obviously cares a great deal for both Hydronia and its citizens and soldiers.
34	* CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Is the Captain Smooth to General Marshes Sergeant Rough.
35	* CosmopolitanCouncil: Because he had to focus on his duties as Supreme Commander, it was heavily implied that Ozzel relied on some sort of governing council to perform the task of governing Hydronia when he was Emperor.
36	* FireForgedFriends - Implied to be how he befriended General Marsh.
37	* FourStarBadass - Started out as an Admiral.
38	* OfficerAndAGentleman - Ozzel is cordial and polite most of the time, and the only time you'll find him swearing is when something really terrible happens.
39	* OldSoldier - He's served in the Hydronian military for years, to say nothing of his grey hair.
40	* RammingAlwaysWorks: When his flagship, the Annihilator took a critical mount of damage, Ozzel elected to stay onboard as the rest of the crew evacuated and crashed the Annihilator straight into the Mobian Empires Eclipse flagship- taking its shields out when nothing else had. Luckily, he managed to get away in an escape pod at the last minute.
41	* ReluctantRuler - What he was when it came to being the Emperor- he's happier working for the military.
42	* YouAreInCommandNow - What happened when the Emperor decided to stay behind on Hydronia when it was destroyed.
43
44	!! General Marsh
45	General Marsh is another veteran of the Lyvek invasion, and an old friend and ally of Ozzel. Although the two don't always see eye to eye, they have a fond friendship and are willing to work with each other to get things done.
46	----
47	* CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Is the Sergeant Rough to Ozzels Captain Smooth.
48	* CoolHelmet: Has a rather large helmet that covers his eyes.
49	* ColonelKilgore: Although he denies having any sort of overwhelming pride for Hydronia - as Hydronians disdain any sort of nationalism- it's obvious that he loves the country, and leading his troops.
50	* DrillSergeantNasty: Used to have shades of this, but this eventually faded away.
51	* FourStarBadass: Has been acting in a leadership role ever since the end of the war with the Lyvek.
52	* InstantAwesomeJustAddMecha: What happened when Marsh stumbled upon an old mech suit that still had a timespace unit, allowing him to join up with the Hydronians again, having been left behind after his-
53	* LastStand Made one of these when the Daleks invaded Earth.
54	* TheDragon - Is this to Ozzel.
55
56	!Liberators Army
57
58	A Paramilitary Peace keeping force that originated from the Regular Army and became an independent armed force after the Regular Army was dissolved.
59	----
60	* BadassArmy They are the only Army that can wear Orange and still look good fighting.
61	* BattleCry ''De Oppresso Liber'' which is Latin for Liberate the oppressed.
62	* BulletproofVest: The standard infantry now wear these as standard issue and it doubles as a tactical load bearing vest.
63	* GenderIsNoObject: The Liberators have fully integrated combat units in every branch.
64	* HighlyConspicuousUniform They are ultimately guilty for playing this trope straight as their army colors are Orange. Has become a RunningGag over time, though the standard infantry also wear black Tactical Vests and pads on their knees and elbows.
65	* KnightErrant The Liberators are often deployed where they are needed most by others.
66	%%* WouldNotShootACivilian
67	----

81	* MadeOfIron: On many separate occasions he gets punched, kicked, cut up, shot at, blown up by tanks, impaled, perforated by a rocket, and attacked by supernatural dark energies, and it hardly slows him down.
82	* TheMenFirst: At one time he gave the men under his command a three day pass to relax while he had business to take care of.
83	* MilitaryMaverick Once told a political figure off because he didn't trust him (and annoyed the crap out of him) and didn't catch any flack from the higher ups for it. [[spoiler: Though it turns out to be the BigBad in disguise, not that Briano and many other people know that.]]
84	* MoreDakka: While he uses varying types of firearms, his preferred weapon of choice is the M249 Machine gun.
85	* PermissionToSpeakFreely: Asked this when a General acctually considered enlisting a young MagicalGirl in the Liberators:

87	-->'''Liberator General''': Go ahead Captain.
