The Purple Alliance of WIN was a long-standing yet small alliance in the Purple Trading Sphere. It was founded as a monarchy centered around Lady Destra, queen of Euroslavia on 1 December 2006. PAW initially sought protection from The Legion, only to have their request ignored. In April, following a government shake-up, PAW agreed to a protection pact with the New Polar Order, which allowed Polaris recruitment and military officials to assist with the development of PAW.
