[edit] History

During Power Rangers: Zeo, the Machine Empire is said to have broken away from a "United Alliance of Evil" to pursue independent conquest.

Forces later commanded by Dark Specter in Power Rangers in Space have been collectively dubbed the "United Alliance of Evil" by fans referring to villains, foot soldiers, and monsters within this armada. These forces first came into play during the attack on Eltar, Zordon's home planet. They captured Zordon, and resigned Alpha 5 and Dimitria to a mysterious fate.

Dark Specter planned to absorb Zordon's power, but constantly had to hide him from the searching Phantom Ranger and Space Rangers. After various attempts to destroy them, Specter was destroyed by a doomsday weapon intended to destroy the Earth.

Following Dark Specter's demise, Astronema took control of the organization. The various factions launched their attacks: Rita and Zedd attacking the Vica Galaxy and capturing the Gold Ranger; the Machine Empire attacking the Phantom Ranger's home world and subduing both him and the Blue Senturion; and Divatox attacking Gratha and overwhelming the Alien Rangers of Aquitar. Astronema personally led the attack on Earth, in the events shown in the episode Countdown to Destruction.

However, these forces were defeated when Andros, the Red Space Ranger, shattered Zordon's energy tube, releasing a wave of energy which purified several villains (namely Rita, Zedd, and Divatox) into human forms and vaporized the rest into piles of sand. Astronema was also restored to her normal form of Karone.

Among surviving remnants of these forces were the Psycho Rangers and the last generals of the Machine Empire, as well as the giant zord Serpentera. Additionally, although part of Dark Specter's original cadre, Master Vile's fate was never shown nor mentioned, and he is speculated by some fans to have survived Zordon's energy wave.

Also several members of the United Alliance of Evil have been seen on the Cimmerian planet at the beginning of Power Rangers in Space but were not dealt with. It is unknown if they have survived.

Rito Revolto and Scorpina were not seen with the Alliance during the series, making their fate unknown.
Porto was seen at the first meeting of the Cimmerian planet but was nowhere to be found during the events of Countdown to Destruction.
Prince Sprocket was seen at the beginning of Countdown to Destruction along with King Mondo and Queen Machina. However when Mondo and Machina attacked a planet, Prince Sprocket did not appear to be present.
Finster and Goldar were seen during Zedd and Rita's attack on the Vica Galaxy, but not when the energy wave hit.
