The Onion Alliance was the majority alliance of the Kota tribe on Survivor: Gabon. Despite forming on the stronger of the two starting tribes, the Onion Alliance was decimated by a series of twists and strategic misjudgements. Susie Smith's unexpected flip from the alliance sealed its downfall, but the alliance still managed to produce the winner of the season. It was called the onion alliance because Marcus Lehman said it was an alliance with multiple layers, him and Charlie Herschel being the innermost layer.
