In Eureka Seven, Gekkostate (ゲッコーステイト Gekkōsuteito) was the protagonist group of the series, who also happened to be a group of outlaws due to the fact that the original members deserted the military and the seemingly criminal acts that they participate in afterwards. Gekkostate was founded by Holland Novak after he left the United Federation, along with Eureka, Talho Yūki, Ken-Goh, the Nirvash typeZERO, and the Gekko which ends up becoming their ship for their daily activities. This results in Holland's older brother, Dewey Novak, being imprisoned by the Sage Council.
