Confederacy of Terran-Associated Systems

The Confederacy of Terran-Associated Systems is a human-dominated empire that stretches across nearly all of known space. A decentralized government, the Confederacy serves the interests of its constituent systems in interstellar matters, including trade, diplomacy, and warfare. They also benefit from the protection of the Confederate military and its economic infrastructure. In exchange, each constituent pays taxes to the Confederate government in the form of goods and credits.

Governmental Structure
Most government functions within the Confederacy are handled by its constituent systems, overseen by Confederate representatives. The Confederacy maintains a nobility, titled political figures drawn from its constituency and tasked with the administration of the Confederacy as a whole. These nobles have significant political influence in their home region and serve as members of the Confederate Senate.
