The IEA was founded in 2000 by redacted & a member of the Zyric government who wishes to stay anonymous. The IEA was originally a department in the government. They helped manufacture weopnary for the ZDF. At the time, the IEA only visited the moon for reources to support the manufacturing of these weapons. Since the Great Zyric war, the IEA desided to privatise and break off from the Government, forming a seperate entity. This lead to the creation of ZCW (Zyric Canon Warfare) who are responisble for manufacturing weopns.
Since the privatisation, the government still funds the IEA since the discovories that we make support the whole of Zyric & the world. The government has very minimal control over what we can and can't do.
Some of the weopns we produce are donated to the ZDF and because they fund us.
