The Year 730 Mafia was the name given to a small, close-knit group of officers in the Free Planets Alliance military who came to dominate both the political and social spotlite for several years during the FPA-Imperial War. Centered around the famed tactician Bruce Ashbey, the members of the Year 730 Mafia became celebrities, and their victories on the field of battle would serve as an inspiration for the following generation of soldiers.

The strong ties between members of the Year 730 Mafia began to unravel shortly before the Second Battle of Tiamat, due in large part to the growing egoism of their leader, Bruce Ashbey. Following the FPA's disasterous defeat at the Second Battle of Tiamat, and the death of several of its members, including Ashbey, the Year 730 Mafia disbanded.
