'''The Federation''' (formally The Interplanetary Confederation of Autonomous Worlds, a.k.a the Confederacy to some old-timers) is a democratic alliance of planetary governments. To be a full member, a planet must have at least a million people and not be a colony or dependency of any other government. The Federation Assembly is the governing and lawmaking body. All laws passed are subject to review by the High Council, composed of five representatives from each Federation member world. The method of choosing representatives is left to each individual planetary government. Enforcement of Federation law is carried out by the Federation Patrol, the law enforcement arm of the Federation. Most individual worlds are responsible for their own planetary defenses, but the Federation also maintains military capability through the Federation Navy and its ground forces, the Federation Marines. | '''The Federation''' (formally The Interplanetary Confederation of Autonomous Worlds, a.k.a the Confederacy to some old-timers) is a democratic alliance of planetary governments.
