It's like the "other" Alliance, the one from Firefly. "Union of Allied Planets"? Uh, I think we got that, how can it be a union if the planets aren't allied?
.

The same way that the United Nations is?

And we know they read those old New Voyages books, hence "Ni'Var"

Or Memory-Alpha. There's a Vulcan ship named Ni'var in Enterprise, and I'm sure M-A's article had the origin of the name.

Though we know in Season 1 they read some of 'The Final Reflection' for Klingon inspiration. So anything is possible.
