In the late 2020s, Quicksilver played an integral role in the foundation of rapprochement between Caphiria and Urcea, leading to the end of the [[Occidental Cold War|Cold War]]. Ironically, QSI benefited immensely from this peaceful coexistence between the two superpowers because it allowed for it to expand its business operations into newly-formed free trade zones. This expansion continued in parallel as Urceo-Caphiric relations continued to become more positive, and in 2035 another agreement was reached which would allow Caphirian investment into Urcea's Cronan territories and protectorates. | In the late 2020s, Quicksilver played an integral role in the foundation of rapprochement between Caphiria and Urcea, leading to the end of the [[Occidental Cold War|Cold War]].

This agreement coincided with a large Urcean push into its ongoing conflicts in Crona, which QSI was readily available to assist with. Quicksilver would provide arms, supplies, and resources to Urceans and pro-Urcean forces and in exchange would be allowed direct access to Crona for investment and development, a previously untapped market for QSI. | This agreement coincided with a large Urcean push into its ongoing conflicts in Crona, which QSI was readily available to assist with.

In 2007, Quicksilver Industries acquired the O'Shea Shipping Company - along with all of its sister companies, for $108 billion. Under QSI, O’Shea became a brand name and many other shipbuilding and shipping-related companies were established under the O'Shea brand, including one of the largest Caphirian ship owning, managing, and leasing (chartering) companies - Combulatus, which manages and provides ships to shipping companies under long term charter-party agreements. In 2025, QSI went through a massive reorganization; a parent company called the O'Shea Corporation would be formed in order to effectively and efficiently manage the O'Shea portfolio of companies. Currently, the company is organized into four divisions which act as quasi-independent companies: O'Shea Shipping, O'Shea Industrial, O'Shea Services, and O'Shea Management. | In 2007, Quicksilver Industries acquired the O'Shea Shipping Company - along with all of its sister companies, for $108 billion.
