Nergal Heavy Industries
Nergal Heavy Industries is a multinational corporation based in the Orb Union, with several offices elsewhere in the world as well, including one in Side 1 and one in the PLANTs. Nergal is large enough to very nearly be an economy unto itself, and unlike other similarly large companies like Anaheim Electronics, pursues its own semi-military ends, to a point.
In 0095, Nergal Heavy Industries deployed its flagship, the Nadesico, to break through the Earth's defensive line and head to Mars, in direct defiance of a no-fly order from the Federation for non-Federation vessels. The Nadesico returned some ten months later; the Federation would still very much like to have the vessel under its thumb.
Nergal does its best to be utterly unaccountable to anyone, but as its concerns shift and the realities of the modern era of warfare become unavoidable, it has already begun flirting with helping the Federation more directly. It certainly helps the Federation more than it does ZAFT…
