Internal Intelligence Agency

The Internal Intelligence Agency otherwise known simply as the IIA was the national internal intelligence agency of the Solar Union and later, the United Republic of Orion. It was formed in 13 P.T. alongside the FIA when the ISB was disbanded after the fall of the Sol Imperium.

Foundation of the IIA
When the Solar Union was created in 13 P.T. after the fall of the infamous Sol Imperium. The Imperium Security Bureau was disbanded and in its place two agencies were created. The Internal Intelligence Agency and the Foreign Intelligence Agency.

The Internal Intelligence Agency's headquarters were located in the old TSB Building in the city of Barcelona in the Catalonia Region of the Interregnum. First Executive Alexander Knox assigned Mustafa (former Director of the TSB) as the first Director of the IIA.

Citadel Incident
While the Union was fighting the Second League War in the planets of Avalon and Lyra, a paramilitary Metahuman group known as the Metahuman Defence Force took over the Citadel of Metahumans and deposed Governor Frost. After the deposed Governor escaped and informed Director Hayes and First Executive Knox of the events, the IIA was tasked with carrying out a preemptive investigation into the matter.

While uncovering Thyne and his plot, multiple bombings ocurred in the Headquarters of the Executive Council and the Armed Forces of the Solar Union on Mars. The Executive Council and the Union Congress had an emergency meeting and finally decided to focus the IIA on searching for the MDF Agents responsible for the bombings while the FIA and TDO handled the Citadel Incident.

Search for Thyne
After the Citadel of Metahumans was destroyed, the IIA launched an investigation into the search of Commander Thyne of the MDF who had escaped the wreckage and had been spotted in Mars multiple times. After months of search the investigation came out unsuccessful.

A year later, Enzo Fox of the FIA would inform Director Mustafa of a plot by Thyne to overthrow the Solar Government. After First Executive Viaux and the Union Congress were informed, the IIA uncovered the location of the hideout of the conspirators in New Oslo. The National Guard and IIA Agents stormed the place and managed to capture Thyne, also discovering Marshall Laake with him who escaped before he could be captured. Thyne would be later imprisoned indefinitely by orders of the Congress.

Arrest of the TDO High Command

In 32 P.T., the Union Congress was bombed by an unknown enemy. Due to the recent passing of the legislation to allow Grand Protector Enzo Fox authority over the TDO, FIA and IIA the government suspected the TDO did not want to kneel to the Grand Protector thus rendering them the people responsible for the attack.

A team of IIA Agents and National Guard troops were sent to Eden Base in order to arrest Director Hayes, Haig, Jäger, Blackout, Stroner and other members of the High Command. In response to this, Hayes and the Security Detail of Eden Base captured the government agents and declared its formal leave of the Solar Union. Only Haig willingly testified and was cleared of all charges, remaining as the Interim Director of what remained of the TDO loyal to the Union Government.

Newborn Crisis
In 33 P.T., the Congress of the URO allowed the IIA to raid the many warehouses and installations of MetaCorp Industries while the Newborn Crisis was happening on Earth. They sent a report to Congress with details about the Hive Drones that had gone rogue in Earth. The IIA continuously provided intel to Fleet Admiral Jäger and Enzo Fox for the rest of the Crisis.

Moon Anomaly Investigation
In 35 P.T., an anomaly near the Ruins of the Moon had appeared and so Fleet Admiral Jäger and Fleet Admiral Stroner had been dispatched to observe and provide images to the IIA so they could send them to the TDO in order to discover what the anomaly was. This disturbance eventually grew and sucked in the people in the bridges of the RSS Ravager and the RSS Trafalgar as well as a TDO Corvette.

For eight days, the IIA focused on searching for Jäger, Stroner and the others while the TDO contained the anomaly and studied it. Eventually they gave up and declared the missing people dead, only for them to reappear in Terra Base the next day.
