The Liberation Games are the centerpiece of Liberation Day festivities, celebrating the rebellion and the shared spirit of the Tribes as well as renewing a united dedication to continued efforts to free countless brothers and sisters still suffering in servitude. Declare allegiance to one the Seven Tribes of Matar for the Liberation Games by selecting them in the Agency.

• BRUTOR - A disciplined and strong-willed people who consider themselves the defenders of all Minmatar.
• SEBIESTOR - Emphasizing practical skills, the Sebiestor are known far and wide as engineers and inventors.
• VHEROKIOR - Mystics of this tribe are the guardians of the Voluval Ritual and travel immense distances.
• THUKKER - Nomadic and fiercely independent, the Thukker travel the stars in Great Caravans of starships.
• KRUSUAL - The only tribe that was not completely conquered by the Amarr, their pride is infamous among the Minmatar.
