Northern Star Federation

"'Do you ever think about enlisting in the Federation army when you are grown up?' - Henry Shepard, Chapter 1 Page 15""'Yeah, all the time.' - Cozmata Cumulus, Chapter 1 Page 15"

The Beginning of a Government
The Northern Star Federation was founded in 4756 A.E (After Expansion), when the 4 major trading planets in the Known Galaxy that were colonized by the original human colonists united to protect each other from the Ravager Invasions and share resources via the initiative of David Armstrong Jr. These planets were Ocenia; The underwater world, Vulkania; The magma world, Tarria; The world of mountains and floral beauty, and Asiria; The air cities world.

Due to this cultural and ethnical mix, the Federation has a healthy relationship in between its citizens, which was achieved after hundreds of years of fighting racism in between the different world people. When the colonies were united (after a heavy anti-racism campaign that span through generations due to the need of the colonies to support each other), an official Federation army was funded, spanning through all of the four capital worlds.

Governmental Structure
With time, the Federation became the dominant government in the Galaxy, having it's own council, politicians, laws and military. Its governmental structure is divided in several councils for each function of the government, such as education, defense and health. All of these councils include representatives for each planet in the Federation, so all of them get their say on future decisions. These councils are all part of the Legislative power.

The Federation elects a first citizen every 4 years, which is then responsible for the executive part of the state, approving and rejecting laws and being the high commander of the military. The first citizen also has many juridical powers.

The constitution of the Federation is its highest and utmost governing body. If the first citizen breaks its laws, it is required of the councils that they be impeached.

Although having cases of corruption, the Federation in 5061 A.E is expanding quicker than it ever had. Many people have developed certain distaste towards the Federation in recent years, because of their tax increase due to the effort to explore the unknown regions. They hire mercenaries known as Pioneers to discover new worlds and communicate them about it so they can start colonies.

Galactic Exploration Campaign
These pioneers along with the Official Expeditionary Federationist Army discovered many new worlds that brought wealth and power to the Federation, besides new territory. That is, until they stumbled upon the Empire of Etheria, the first alien sector-wide government humans had ever discovered. This was a shock to both humans and Etherians, as they had never seen a sector-wide government besides their own. This shock became awareness, and this awareness became fear. The first meetings between Etherean representators and Federation representators were met with strangeness, but when the translators could communicate, the first thing they wanted to strive for was peace. This, however, was predicted as not to last, since everyone, from high position to dirt poor, knew a conflict would strike over the first planet they both want, since Etheria was in its own exploration campaign also.

There is tension between the Federation and the older Empire of Etheria towards getting new territory, as expected. Although taxes have been increasing in Federation colonies and territories, employment opportunities have been increasing in the Capitals, and the economy has been skyrocketting with the trades between the Federation and Etheria and other planets with individual governments. But all citizens that know of the superpowers situation knew that a war was coming, and it would be like nothing the galaxy had ever seen.

And as predicted, it was what happened. In five-thousand forty two A.E, the Empire of Etheria and the Federation stumbled upon the same planet, a swamp-like planet with abundant resources and land called Pethun. In the planet, the troops of both sides did intimidation attempts with heavy armored vehicles, but at the end, shots were fired. Thus starting the Federo-Etherian War. The Federation won this conflict, and became the dominant government in the Known Galaxy.
