Brief
Draconis Federation is a huge nation that resides within the Draconis Expanse, a territory of space that covers two systems, the Draconis system and the Anaraox system. The Draconis Federation is composed of four planets within the Draconis system, and three within the Anaraox system, with hundreds of satellite and planetary colonies. It is currently still expanding, and accepts open discussions with any other peaceful civilization.
National Animal: Wyvern
National Anthem: Gaia's Warriors
Society
Much of Dracon society revolves around the natural world and it's many forests, jungles, and swamps, which to the Dracon are as sacred as their goddess, the earthly mother, Gaia. Because the Dracon see the natural world as sacred they do not enjoy encroaching on wilderness areas, so in an attempt to please the masses worshiping love of nature and their need to expand, thousands of sky cities have replaced the older cities on the planets of Dracon and Hui'gar.
The Draconis Federation believe heavily in compulsory military service for any Dracon ten years old for exactly ten years and for any Human twenty years old for exactly five years, they are then allowed to choose between a military contract or civilian life. Draconis Federation's population is 90% Dracon and 10% Human, the Human minority does not suffer at the hands of the Dracon majority. Which is very common among Human majority nations, that the Non-human minority suffer at the hands of the Human majority. Draconis Federation has no official religion though the population is 99.99% Gaian.
Government
Draconis Federation is ruled by four governing bodies: the Consul, who approves or vetoes actions taken by the Senate; the Senate, which writes laws, directs taxes and expenditures; the Supreme Court, which interprets the laws and has the power to declare them unconstitutional; and the Council of Ancients, which doesn't have any political power but has great influence and has the support of the people.
Draconis Federation's Consul is Dala Vedra, and its Foreign Minister is Yula Qwei'tra.
Elections are held annually. Only full citizens who have passed a competency test in reading, writing, arithmetic, and government may vote. Full citizens may vote at any age, but people who don't serve either in the military or politically rarely become full citizens.
Administration
The government is organized as a representative republic with all full citizens having the right to vote. The citizens elect 100 senators with 50 replaced or reelected every year. The citizens select the Consul who serves purely as a representative of the citizenry's will.
Education
Education is free for all, and is compulsory for all Dracon ages 2-10 and for all Humans ages 4-20.
Defense
Service is compulsory for the entire population, this allows for advance technology training and advanced engineering training. Although military service is compulsory few remain in any military field due to strict regulations for a military contract. This results in a civilian population that has both military training, and is fiercely patriotic.
Law and Order
Law and Order spending in the Draconis Federation covers many different areas. This portion of the budget covers police services, civil defense, planetary defense, and intelligence. The Law and Order division works closely with the Defense division as many of their duties overlap.
Law & Order Follows The Principles of Unity with Honor
Order requires law. Law is enforced through deterrence. Deterrence is based on the fear of consequences as well as the loss of honor, and fear is the most powerful motivating force. Dissidents will fear the consequences of their disloyalty and dishonorable actions. Unity, honor, and order will be restored.
The Draconis Federation is based on a foundation of peace, unity and honor. It is from traditions that we draw inspiration for our advancement as a civilization. Lawlessness cannot exist in a society of peace, and it is through regimentation and structure that Dracon and Humans are able to flourish while still standing strong against corruption.
Commerce
Much of the Commerce is controlled by the many Corporations and their smaller counterparts, no-one is barred from entering the area, and huge amounts of credits go into helping the sector grow, but only those who deal honorably make any real profit in the Draconis economy.
Politics
The Draconis Federation is very open, courteous to those outside and within. Honor and loyalty rules politics.
The citizenry control the politicians, which means they control the politics, meaning many foreign governments are forced to appeal to the citizenry to have any pull in the Senate, rather than any single individual or group.
