This report presents the latest data on expansion and withdrawal among the galaxy's minor factions.
Here are the latest factions to have expanded into new systems:
Ernueken Future
LP 510-10 Solutions
Holiacan Dynamic Company
Confederacy of Pan
LHS 221 Vision Systems
Hayimshis Noblement
Black Hand of Jaaka
Kamocadroa Purple Comms Systems
Friends of Concateneg

Expansions occur when a minor faction reaches a sufficient level of influence and there is a populated system within striking distance. Expansion is costly, so when a faction expands, the wealth and development level of the system it controls are temporarily reduced.
Here are the latest factions in withdrawal:
La Rochelle Blue Netcoms Co
Official Bragpura Defence Party
Ninmah and Co
Eototari Resistance
HR 4734 Progressive Party
Yen Di Travel Inc
Grovichun Gold Netcoms Inc
Social Akbulun for Equality
Turna Confederation
LHS 1918 Major Exchange
Factions are considered to be in withdrawal if their level of influence within a system drops below a certain level. If the faction's influence remains low for a total of five days, the faction must leave the system entirely. If the faction manages to increase its level of influence, it remains in the system.
