The Steam Conference of 2016, also known as the Discord-Steam Conference. regulated Unionist colonization and trade in Steam during the New Trumpian period, and coincided with the Eurobeat Union's sudden emergence as a world power. Called for by the Eurobeat Union and organized by Cid von Con Mann, first Chancellor of the Eurobeat Union, its outcome, the General Act of the Steam Conference, can be seen as the formalization of the Scramble for Steam. The conference ushered in a period of heightened game activity by Discord powers, which eliminated or overrode most existing forms of Steam autonomy and self-governance.
