The Alliance was a group of aliens lead by the Fifth Doctor as the Supremo in a war against Morbius.
History
When the Fifth Doctor informed the Time Lords that Morbius was launching a plan of galactic conquest, he proposed that Morbius be defeated by a military campaign, as the best means of undermining Morbius's authority without resorting to more desperate measures such as killing Morbius in the past. The Doctor was selected as the only viable candidate with the tactical and species experience capable of bringing together the many varied military species who could oppose Morbius's army.
Using his experience of other races- and with the Time Lords funding his army-, the Doctor was able to recruit the Sontarans and the Draconians to his army, subsequently mounting a plan of counter-attack against Morbius. Lacking the numbers to attack Morbius directly or attack him by a divide-and-conquer strategy, the Doctor instead proposed that they re-trace Morbius's path of conquest, re-taking planets that he had previously conquered and adding those planets' strength to their own while weakening Morbius's position. While campaigning against Morbius, the Alliance was also joined by Ice Warriors, Cybermen, and a squad of Ogrons.
This plan continued until the Doctor's forces retook the planet Sylvana- which was the current temporary residence of his companion Peri, who had been separated from him before Morbius launched his campaign of conquest-, inspiring the Doctor to force Morbius back to the planet Karn for the final battle. Although Morbius tried to defeat the Alliance by recalling his still-dispersed forces to Karn to mount a final assault, the Doctor was able to summon back-up from some of the planets he'd saved, the resulting battle culminating in the destruction of Morbius's army and his own capture.
