Breaking the Federation
The Federation called council in order to decide what should be done about the Revolutions. "Surely our Federation Government must be preserved!" ,commented one diplomat who's name remains lost to history. He didn't know at the time how ironic his view would be.

The the meeting itself seemed more tense than the frontlines in space. The nations of North America and Eurasia wanted to eliminate the coordinators of ZAFT while other nations wanted to take destroy the Space Revolutionary Army while it was still small, and even this was against the majority view which blamed Zeon for the actions of all the other nations. The arguments about which of the Revolutionaries to deal with first brought up old Earth rivalries and it became clear that any settlement reached would not be well accepted.

When the vote was taken it was decided that Zeon would be the primary target of the Anti-Revolution campiegn. Angered by this decision, the nations that renounced the Space Revolutionary Army declared themselves the New Federation a week later, it wasn't even half that long when the Anti-Coordinator nations declared themselves the Earth Alliance. The nation of ORB, which had been against the entire war to begin with, declared itself neutral shortly afterward in order to avoid what they believed would be an unimaginable destruction.

The Federation was in shambles, and it was unclear what the war was even about anymore. Now that the foundation was gone the chaos could only become worse.
