Factions

Factions
These are the list of factions, current or not:

Handheld District
It’s currently one of the most popular factions because of iPhone 2G and 3G-tans releases back in 2007 and 2008. However, since iPhone 11-tan is soon to come along some point a lot of people have been having mixed feelings about her, the reason why? Trypophobia.

Android Alliance
Without a doubt it's the most influential splinter faction of the Linux/Unix Consortium, being one of the three most influential factions in the OS-tan world, and arguably the most influential of the three as of late. However, not unlike the Second Linux Union and its predecessor, and, at least among the iPhone-tans, unlike The Infinite Loop, the Android Alliance has problems with political instability, with big names threatening to leave, such as the Samsung-tans.

Huawei Dynasty
The Huawei Dynasty is soon to be a faction, originally part of the Android Alliance because of its phones using Android. There are two reasons why the newer Huawei-tans are leaving the Android Alliance is because of 1, the bad reputation they were given by several other factions because of being accused of spying on humans and being accused of seizing stuff they don’t own and 2, they are working on their OS called HarmonyOS/Hongmeng OS.

Vintage Handheld Device Aggregation
The VHDA is the Vintage Federation (Binteeji Renmei) but for vintage phones, tablets, and similar kinds of devices that don’t use either iOS or Android. Founded by Actionman-tan* in 2015 she noticed that many phone companies such as Blackberry and Nokia were somewhat “killed” so she decided to make a group for people who were affected by iPhone 2G, 3G, and iPhone 5-tan’s market dominance. At first, it wasn’t easy getting members but she managed to convince a few people, and then those people got more people which helped it grow! The VHDA is located at the old Nokia pulp mill and possibly the Blackberry-tans Blackberry Farm. Some of these people who were affected either had a chance to go here or the Android Alliance.


 * The Nokia Actionman has been discontinued for quite a long time now but for storyline reasons, she is still alive. Like how Apple I is deceased despite the fact 63 of them are presumed to exist.

Calculator Confederacy
The Calculator Confederacy formed in sometime when smartphones began to make calculators practically obsolete. It's debated who founded this faction since there could be various candidates such as Casio Model 14-A-tan, ANITA-tan, Monroe Epic-kun, and various others. It started as a faction against the VHDA, Android Alliance, and the Infinite Loop's Handheld District because most calculator-tans and kuns saw them as a threat. After a few years, this "hatred" against the smartphones waned and the faction began to turn into a place for calculators to retire that don't wish to go to the Vintage Handheld Device Aggregation but however, there are rumors that one calculator there doesn't like the fact the hatred has waned and believes this faction should've started when computers began to make their fame.

Nokian Liittovaltio (Nokia Federation)
The Nokian Liittovaltio was one of the most well known and somewhat wealthiest of these vintage factions. It was founded by Nokia SV-1300-tan in 1974 on the company's pulp mill but spent most of her time as a loner until she decided that next year she would create a powerful faction but she didn't have a huge ego unlike the first telephone-tan did. From then, Nokia SRP-25-kun and Nokia SV-1300-tan's Russian clone, Nokia HOKNA SV-1330-tan were born to help her out until 1979 when they created a joint venture with the Salora-tans/kuns and named the company Mobira Oy. Mobira Senator-tan was born during this time and was the more spoilt one out of her siblings (Mobira Quattro-tan and Mobira Combi) but they didn't rebel against Mobira for this.

Motorola Motorcade
Founded in 1983 by DynaTAC-tan, she and various other Motorola-tans brought us the mobile phone, however, ended up forgotten because of being purchased by Lenovo. They were a big competitor just like the Nokian Liittovaltio. The Motorola Motorcade used to be the largest faction until the Nokian Liittovaltio kicked them out of top place in 1998 and then between 2006 and 2009 their mobile market shares dropped because of the iPhone 4.

BlackBerry
Although they don’t have a very fancy name or a fancy place to live they were one of the most prominent -tans on the market because of their keyboards on their phones. They reached their peak in 2013 but then lost its dominant position because of Android and iOS. Most of the newer members here would’ve gone to the Android Alliance but the older ones would’ve gone to the VHDA.

AT&T
I wasn’t quite sure on how to interpret AT&T because someone asked. For now, it’s just some futurist looking building which produces magic for phone-tans and others because they only made like 4 phones and the factions are for companies that make phones.
