The Trans-Solar Federation is the galaxy’s leading superpower and is easily the largest interstellar nation in terms of both size and population, counting hundreds of systems and thousands of worlds under its command. Under its decentralized and federalist system, the Federation may be slow to fully awaken, but once ready, only the gods can hope to stand against its military and industrial might.


Summary

The Trans-Solar Federation, also known as the TSF or simply SolGov, is the primary human-majority nation today, and the de-facto superpower of the known galaxy. Primarily located in the Orion arm of the galactic South, the TSF is a network of hundreds of local system governments, each swearing loyalty and taxes to the federal government based in Sol.

Coming into being in the late twenty-second century, the entity that would become the TSF was created out of a union between several old Earth governments following the end of the Second Cold War. With Earth running low on critical resources, the newly-formed Solar Federation expanded quickly, colonizing the Solar system, and, once FTL travel was developed, beyond.

Today, the Federation stands as powerful as ever, its armies and fleets crossing the void alongside their Skrellian allies to bring order and light to stars known and unknown. While it may face challenges as any nation does, the men and women of the Trans-Solar Federation can march forward with pride, knowing that so long as Sol burns, the Federation will endure.


Abridged History Solgovflag.png

Government & Politics

The Trans-Solar Federation practices a form of hybrid democracy known as Federal Stratocracy. Under this model, only those who have completed a requisite five or more years in either the nation’s civil or military service are permitted to vote or hold public office. Those who have completed their service become true Citizens, while those who have not are known as Civilians. While civilians retain similar legal and property rights to citizens, they are excluded from several government programs, and are ineligible for political participation. Due to the difficult and low-paying nature of federal service, civilians make up the majority of the Federation’s population, though this varies between member worlds.

The Federal government is made up of four separate branches: The Joint Chiefs, the Citizens’ Councils, the Civilian Assembly, and the Supreme Court.

The Joint Chiefs

The Joint Chiefs make up the executive of the Federation, with voting members consisting of the Navy Chief of Staff, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, the Army Chief of Staff, the Director of the Logistics Corps, the Secretary of Civil Affairs, and the Grand Marshal of the Federation. The Director of FAID, Commodore of the Merchant Marine, Sector Authority Commanders, and several other lesser functionaries also attend in advisory capacity. Members of the Joint Chiefs, with the exception of the Grand Marshal, do not have set terms, but are expected to retire when no longer fit for office. The Grand Marshal is selected by the Joint Chiefs from the Federal Military at large, excepting the Joint Chiefs themselves, who are not eligible for the office. The upcoming Grand Marshal must then be confirmed by both Councils before assuming office. The Grand Marshal serves for a single term of ten years.

The Citizens' Councils

Comprising two separate assemblies, Upper and Lower, the Citizens’ Councils provide political representation to the citizens of the Federation. The Upper Council provides equal representation to all member worlds, with two elected representatives per world. The Lower Council provides proportional representation, with each planet electing a number of representatives proportional to their population. Representatives in both councils serve for terms of five years, with a limit of two terms per representative.

The Councils are the primary legislative body of the Federation, with both Upper and Lower being able to put forth bills. Said bills must then be confirmed by both Councils, and the Civilian Assembly.
