The Alliances are originally built off of a group of 3 people who can expand the faction by making it accessible to certain users who they deemed are good enough to join, usually the factions are based off of around a military alliance, Ethnic Groups, or Ideologies.

Basically small military groups working together to achieve one goal.... some think of it as countries.
