Millions are Afraid.

They are terrified of being caught in the crossfire as titanic nations go to war. Terrified of being exploited by those less moral...or being sacrificed in the name of the greater good.

This is their Confederacy.

CONFEDERATE GOVERNMENT

The heart of the Government is the Confederate Charter. These terms exist as the fundamental laws which founded the nation. All member worlds agree to abide by the Charter's terms upon joining the Confederacy. Though essential, amendments to the Charter can be made by the collective will of the Viceroyalty.

CONFEDERATE CHARTER

I-A. In the case of extreme abuse or corruption (confirmed via Inquisition by the Judicial Branch), the current leadership will be removed. The Viceroyalty will establish a new representative of the world or supervise the immediate election of a new representative.​
