There is, and it's a denial. The issue is that people mistranslated the info on the Rectan Conflict in the past. Notice how you said 1973, which lines up perfectly with the end of the Rectan Conflict? Basically, the original flawed translations of the info on Silber Team implied that Belka annexed Recta in the Rectan Conflict, which is false. Belka was already a federation and Rectan independence fighters wanted to break away in the 1970s.

tl;dr We have no idea when Belka became a Federation. We only know that the Federation broke up when Belka lost all but its principality.
