  Nute Gunray - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace Gunray and his organization, the Trade Federation, appear to be the movie's primary villains, but it is made clear early on to the audience (although not to the movie's characters) that the real antagonist is the Sith Lord Darth Sidious.
The first crisis Gunray faced as head of the Federation was Chancellor Valorum's decision to impose on tax on trade routes throughout the galaxy.
In Revenge of the Sith, Nute Gunray was tired of the war, and found himself at odds with the droid army leader General Grievous, Gunray dared to question Grievous' leadership but his concerns fell on deaf ears.

 STAR WARS: Trade Federation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The numerous war machines and vessels of the Trade Federation are especially deserving of study because of their systematic nature and because the variety of spatial relationships between them which will provide tight geometric constraints on their sizes when enough stills from the movie are available for study.
The converted war freighter battleships of the Trade Federation are the ultimate point of reference, and there are signs that there may be some official disagreement about their scale.
The pilot droids of the ordinary war freighters obviously must operate without dependence on the droid control ship (otherwise the crew would collapse when the ships were separated), but this could be explained if all the Federation ships had onboard droid control systems capable of handling droids at short range.

Reference is made in his article to our meeting in Bristol and the "five federation Classic slots." That is the one and only thing that has not been an item for discussion since that meeting, yet it seems to keep surfacing in meetings and news articles because of its membership impact.
We passed on to the Federation presidents after that meeting that those slots were not going to be in jeopardy and we have never told them anything different, nor has ESPN/BASS backed off on that promise.
The division representatives are a group of five former (and current Federation) presidents who have volunteered their time to help ESPN/BASS work to further the organization, the sport of bass fishing, the protection of the sport through conservation efforts, and the future of the sport by working with today's youth.

 Star Wars: Databank | Trade Federation Forces
Led by the Neimoidians, the Trade Federation is a labyrinthine organization of bureaucrats, merchants and trade officials from many worlds that has insinuated itself throughout the galaxy.
In the manipulative hands of the Sith, the Trade Federation was transformed into an instrument of warfare.
Though the Trade Federation was defeated in this endeavor, this was but the first of several conflicts which would lead to the downfall of the Galactic Republic.

 Star Wars: Databank | Trade Federation
Coalitions such as the Trade Federation, Commerce Guild, Techno Union, and the Intergalactic Banking Clan consolidated their individual markets under governing bodies of such size that they exhibited pull on the actions of the Galactic Senate.
While the budget-minded Trade Federation's reliance on droid labor was well known, the scope of their invasion army was shocking.
Nonetheless, Gunray committed the Trade Federation to the Separatist cause, and in the first battle of the Clone Wars, the Trade Federation droid army fought against the clone army of the Republic.

The Trade Federation is a brutish civilization that relies on troopers and mechs to steamroll through enemy factions.
Antiaircraft artillery are especially useful for the Trade Federation, as they do not have a strong air force to counter the aircraft of other factions.
The unique unit of the Trade Federation could almost be considered overkill, for it is a powerful mech that bolsters this faction's destructive capabilities.

 The Federation of the Wars of the Roses - History Page
After the war in France was resumed in 1449, Somerset's army was consistently defeated, and by 1453 all of England's French possessions except Calais had been lost.
Since the murder (1450) of Williamde la Pole, 1st duke of Suffolk, Somerset had been the head of the court faction and was protected by Henry VI against popular resentment and the attacks of the Yorkists.
Although Henry's accession marked the end of the Wars of the Roses, the early years of his reign were disturbed by Yorkist attempts to regain the throne.

 Star Wars InfoNet: Factions: Trade Federation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The Federation did just that, and under the influence of the Phantom Menace, they blockaded and eventually invaded the planet of Naboo, a peaceful world allied to The Republic that just happened to be along the trade routes that the Federation was being taxed to use.
The Trade Federation was later defeated in a military confrontation between the allied forces of the Naboo and Gungan people and the Neimodian leaders of the hostile invasion, Nute Gunray and Rune Haako, were sent to four consecutive senatorial trials.
Because Dooku states that he is dedicated to the absolute capitalism that the Trade Federation is unofficially based on, Gunray commits the droid armies of the Federation to the separitist movement but is defeated when the clone armies of the now-mobilized Republic meet them in head-on combat during the Battle of Genosha.

Obscured by the familiar grandeur of John Williams's score for Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace was the sheer volume of the composer's prodigious musical efforts.
Not only did Williams expand on the original Star Wars trilogy's musical language with a whole new range of modern classical inspirations, but his efforts also produced more than two hours of seamless symphonic foundation for the galactic epic, enough wall-to-wall music to power three less ambitious films.
Granted there are some slow moments on both of the discs in the set, mainly the bulk of the Tattooine sequence and the Coruscant sequence, but the bulk of the CD is exciting, original, and epic in scope and feel.

The Wars of the Roses were an intermittent series of dynastic struggles, lasted from 1455 to 1487 and were the last wars to be fought in England over the issue of who should be king.
Known during the period as the wars between Lancaster and York, it was not until much later that it was remarked upon that the symbol of the House of York was the white rose and that the coat of arms of the House of Lancaster included a red rose.
Almost without a blow being struck, Warwick had succeeded in reversing the outcome of the previous wars and the Lancastrian line was again on the throne of England.

 TrekWeb.com - Manny Coto: Section 31, Mirror Universe, and Moon All Fair Game as Finale Nears (SPOILERS)
As viewers/fans, we have come to better understand why Earth was/is an essential element to the Federation: it is the binding trust the various star systems required to work with one another: it backs up its words with good intentions.
And, of course, there are so many other ideas: the construction of the first Starbase, expansion of the warp-five-NX starship fleet, introduction to the science team on ENT (geologist, botantist, etc), and creation of the diplomatic corps (which was always a source of annoyance on TOS).
Now, I know I have been bashed before concerning my belief that Coto is using my theories and I'll probably be bashed again, but I have posted a number of times that Reed is the key to the origin of Section 31.

The builder with more pieces at hand will probably be tempted to simply re-inforce the structure himself, and he will be correct in doing so, although some sections are beyond redemption.

 Star Wars vs Star Trek in Five Minutes
First, Star Wars vs Star Trek normally means "could the Empire kick the Federation's ass".
Generally speaking, the sheer scale of the Empire (millions of planets, able to build moon-sized Death Stars) is vastly greater than that of the Federation, so Trekkies try to take the sheer size and numerical advantage of the Empire out of the equation, and simplify matters into straight ship vs ship comparisons.
Of all the voluminous Star Wars and Star Trek publications out there, only one for each series gives meaningful specifications in real-world units: Star Wars Episode II Incredible Cross-Sections (SW2ICS) and the Star Trek Next Generation Technical Manual (TNG TM).
