United Alliance
Realm: Avalon
Capital: Earth (Terran Central District, North Hemisphere Governance Ring)
Formed: Approx. 1500 years prior to Imperial Unification
Government Type: Representative Federal Republic
Current Status: Semi-autonomous Federal State under the Sapphire Empire
The United Alliance is a multi-planetary federal government within the Realm of Avalon, formed as a unification effort among humanity's disparate colonies and homeworld in the wake of a centuries-long fragmentation era. With Earth as its political and cultural nucleus, the Alliance was created to stabilize interplanetary relations, standardize civil rights among human populations, and provide a unified military and diplomatic presence throughout Avalon, then, the Milky Way.
It operates through a centralized federal structure while permitting significant internal autonomy for member planets, systems, and colonies.
Structure
Chancellor of the Alliance: Chief Executive and diplomatic figurehead, elected by the Senate.
Alliance Senate: Elective representative body with elected senators from each member planet or major system.
Executive Ministry: Bureaucratic apparatus led by appointed Ministers overseeing Defense, Infrastructure, Health, and other departments.
Judicial Core: Interplanetary court structure, including the High Court of Avalon, planetary courts, and military tribunals.
United Ranger Core: The Alliance’s primary military and exploratory arm.
Culture
A culture grounded in post-national unity, diplomacy, and institutional trust. Alliance citizens are generally secular, cosmopolitan, and civic-minded. While individual planets maintain cultural distinctions, the overarching identity is centered on democratic governance, interstellar cooperation, and human sovereignty within the Realm of Avalon.
Public Agenda
Maintain interplanetary peace and unity among member planets
Protect human autonomy within the Realm of Avalon
Promote trade, education, and exploration across the stars
Uphold justice and the democratic rights of citizens
History
The United Alliance was founded approximately 1500 years ago when Earth re-established contact with its human colonies following the Collapse of the Old Stellar Commonwealth. Initially a diplomatic agreement among three core worlds, the Alliance expanded rapidly into a formal federated body. Earth was recognized as the capital, with the establishment of the Alliance Senate and Executive Ministry. Throughout its history, the Alliance has fended off separatist movements, regional conflicts, and most notably, decades of cold hostility with the Gala Gonian Hegemony. In recent years, the rise of the Sapphire Empire led to the Alliance being integrated as a federal subject, maintaining internal sovereignty but ultimately subordinate to imperial law.
Demography and Population
Diverse but human-only polity. Populations vary by planet but Earth, Nova Eridani, and Aequinox host the largest urban centers. Estimated 12 Trillion citizens across 167 sectors.
Territories
Over 120 fully integrated planetary sectors, with jurisdiction and presence in more than 200 sectors, centered around Sol and its surrounding sectors. All member territories are voluntarily federated under Alliance oversight. The Alliance spans nearly one-quarter of the Milky Way Galaxy, with increasing influence extending deeper into the Mid-Rim and Outer Sectors
Military
United Ranger Core — Interstellar navy and rapid deployment ground force. Divided into:
Orbital Ranger Divisions
Numbered Expeditionary Fleets (Each assigned to a major galactic region, responsible for defense, patrol, and rapid projection of force)
Exploration & Recovery Corps
Imperial Auxiliary Wings (Deployed in collaboration with Sapphire High Command)
Strategic Planetary Defense Arrays
Rapid Response Task Forces (Strategically pre-positioned across major Alliance sectors and transit corridors)
Technological Level
Highly advanced. Terraforming, FTL drives, quantum computing, neural interfacing, and civilian-grade cloning. Research initiatives centralized through the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation
Foreign Relations
Sapphire Empire (Federal Authority) — Subordinate alliance
Gala Gonian Polities — Incorporated foreign power of the Sapphire Empire
Laws
Codified in the Unified Accord of Rights and Order. Laws vary slightly by planet but adhere to centralized Alliance principles. Includes civil rights, interplanetary law, trade policy, and criminal code. Laws enforced by local governments and United Ranger Core where applicable.
Agriculture & Industry
Agriworlds (e.g. Verdantia III)
Industrial Core Systems (e.g. Helios Union Belt)
Focuses include advanced manufacturing, deep space mining, food synthesis, and terraform engineering.
Trade & Transport
Advanced Slipstream Corridor Network for FTL transport
Trade regulated via the Interstellar Commerce Authority
Major hubs: Earth, Nova Eridani, Galbon Prime, and Helion Crosspoint
Planetary Leyline Transfer Hubs: Specialized infrastructures allowing realm-based material transfer across realms.
Education
Education is universal, compulsory, and entirely free across all Alliance systems under Sapphire Empire jurisdiction. The Unified Education Mandate ensures every citizen receives equal access to foundational, secondary, and advanced academic instruction. Interplanetary universities and institutes, such as the Terran Academy of Diplomacy, operate under standardized accreditation overseen by the Imperial Education Directorate. Digital and in-person schooling is fully integrated via the EduNet, now a regulated subsystem of the UNIS communication grid.
Infrastructure
Space elevators on 12 primary worlds
Magrail intercontinental links
Terraform stabilizers
Alliance Relay Beacons (operating on the UNIS System for synchronized realm communication and FTL signal coordination)
High-capacity Slipstream Corridor Terminals
Orbital defense and repair platforms
Stellar weather control satellites
Unity through Will, Peace through Voice.
