Viceroy of Siskeen
Being on the edge of Confederate and Imperial space, Siskeen is in a precarious position of being on the frontline of any invasions that may occur from either government. Taking this into consideration Viceroy Dib has made it a priority to build up a standing militia that encompasses naval, starfighter, and army based organizations to act as a nationalized military force for the system against domestic threats as well as those abroad that would threaten the Confederacy.
Enacting a draft on every male and female reaching the age of adulthood, four years of service are required in a branch of the military determined from their preference and their aptitude tests with two years active duty and two years in the reserves. Once reaching the end of their term of service the individual is given the opportunity to continue their career in the armed forces or to return to civilian life with the potential of being recalled to service (in emergency scenarios) for the next eight years.
The military branches of the United Siskeen Coalition is based on the idea of Independent governing, internal self reliance, and local authority which coincidentally has opened more avenues of job security and careers while also promoting an influx of new citizens to the system. Another byproduct of the militia is a further joining together of the planets in the system into a cohesive group that creates a stronger bond.
