'''Julius Santiago Avellar''' was the founder of the [[Outworlds Alliance]].

==History==
===Early Life and Career===
Julius Avellar would serve as an officer in the [[Federated Peacekeeping Forces]], eventually reaching the rank of [[admiral]].

===Alpheratz===
[[Alpheratz]] had been settled as an independent colony only shortly before the arrival of Julius Avellar, who had retired from the [[Federated Suns]] navy and was seeking a personal retreat where he could avoid what he viewed as the sickening carnage of the [[Age of War]].<ref name="TP1Ep22"/> Avellar began writing once he arrived on Alpheratz, arguing at great length against military adventurism in the [[Inner Sphere]], and his writings were particularly critical of [[House Davion]] and [[House Kurita]]. His words resonated with those in the [[Federated Suns]] who were weary of both warfare and the military-industrial complex that supported it, and many flocked to Alpheratz in pursuit of a lifestyle that wasn't dependent upon the technologies of warfare.<ref name="HB:MPSp15">''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 15: "Outworlds Alliance"</ref> Avellar's personal philosophical views would ultimately lead to the formation of the Outworlds Alliance, with Alpheratz as the capital world.<ref name="TP1Ep22">''The Periphery'', p. 22: "Outworlds Alliance"</ref> A reluctant Avellar found himself first becoming ruler of Alpheratz, then subsequently ruler of the Outworlds Alliance.<ref name="HB:MPSp15"/>
