Salani Alliance

The Salani Alliance is an alliance formed during Survivor: One World. Originally, the alliance was comprised of the five younger and stronger women from the Salani tribe. The alliance has dominated the merge stage of the game, systematically taking out three of the original Manono tribe consecutively.

Origin
The alliance was formed by Alicia Rosa while the Salani tribe was looking for their camp. On the spot, Alicia recruited the 4 other younger and stronger women (Chelsea, Kim, Kat, Sabrina) leaving Salani members Kourtney Moon, Christina Cha, Nina Acosta, and Monica Culpepper on the outside. The alliance would not have to vote anyone at their first Tribal Council after Kourtney was injured and medically evacuated from the game.

A heated rivalry began between Christina and Alicia over Christina brokering a deal with the Manono tribe for fire in exchange for weaving twenty palm fronds for the game, a move which rubbed Alicia the wrong way. The argument took a head at Tribal Council between the two women.

The alliance would continue to enjoy their majority, voting out Nina Acosta at their next Tribal Council visits.

Tribe Shuffle
After winning the next Immunity Challenge, and Manono giving up immunity to them at the following challenge, the two tribes shuffled. Only Alicia swapped over to Manono, while Kim, Kat, Sabrina, and Chelsea maintained their alliance's numbers. A new sub alliance formed with Kim, Troy, Jay, and Chelsea. The alliance soon enjoyed more power after Kim managed to find the Hidden Immunity Idol which she soon told Chelsea about since she trusted her the most. The new Salani would enjoy an Immunity Challenge win.

Alicia managed to get herself into an alliance with Colton Cumbie, the de facto Misfit Alliance leader. With Colton being able to control the men and Alicia being able to control the women, Alicia saw herself in a good position. Alicia did not stick with the women at the new Manono's first Tribal Council, blindsiding Monica (who thought Greg Smith was leaving). Colton and Alicia then turned their harassment and tormenting towards Christina, who was now the next on the chopping block. Christina managed to stay safe after Colton was medically evacuated from the game following a diagnosis of acute appendicitis.

Post-Merge Success
With Colton's medical evacuation, the two tribes were brought into Tribal Council and were told of Colton's condition before merging into Tikiano. The Salani Alliance managed to recruit Christina, the former girl on the outs, and managed to manipulate Jay, Troy, and Michael into believing that the new Manono members were all going to be picked off. Jonas was the first man to go after the new Salani felt he was too likable and smart to keep in the game.

After Kim, Sabrina, Leif, Michael, and Christina won a Reward Challenge, Kim hatched a new strategy with Sabrina: They would go back to Tikiano and convince Troy that Michael was plotting to get him voted out of the game. This strategy worked effectively as Troy bought it and vowed to win Individual Immunity. The women had a minor rift after Chelsea asked Jay about voting Michael while the ex-new Manono members Alicia and Christina were present. At Tribal Council, Michael announced he was confident in his place within his alliance, but was blindsided.

Troy soon became worried that the game was really Men vs. Women as expected, although Jay felt confident that he would be safe. Jay unknowingly told Kim that Troy was going to play his Hidden Immunity Idol and that Kim would be on the receiving end of it being played. With this information, Jay had now made himself the new target and was voted out.
