The Anarchist Communes of Segasaturn - Introduction
The Anarchist Communes of Segasaturn are a federation of Communes (Communities) which are unified by the Constitution of the Anarchist Communes.
The People directly rule through the Worker's Councils, Soviets and the Popular Assemblies - which are based on a Anti-Hierarchial, Bottom-up structure. The Communes are Defended and peace is mantained in them by Local Worker's Militias - which are also organized by Anti-Authoritarian Defense commitees.
The Economy of Segasaturn is a Anarchist Economy, which does'nt need money to function - but the cooperation of all communes and mutual aid. This means that things would be distributed, provided, and given on the basis of need and use, not on profit and sale. Things are produced, distributed, given, and provided by anti-authoritarian, directly-democratic Worker's Collectives.

History
The settling of the Saturnian Tribes (Late 1000's - 1237)
During the late 1000's, a group of Germanic tribes coming from the western part of the continent invaded the area they called Saturnia (this is today the countries of New Ronin, Segasaturn and East Georgia and their immediate neighbors). They eventually settled the area and developed their own culture. The language of Segasaturn (or Saturnia as the Germanic tribes called it) in this period was a German dialect. By 1150, the five main tribes developed their lands into five main kingdoms (Manxia-Nöern, Wiess, Ost-Saturnia, Välereden and Hollenheim).
The Kingdom of Segasaturnia (1237 - 1884)
Then in 1195, the King of Ost-Saturnia began wars of expansion - taking over Hollenheim and Wiess in 1200. Then his son launched a similar expansion - taking over Välereden and Manxia-Nöern in early 1237. He was crowned King of Segasaturnia later that year. He changed the name of his country because he wanted to unite it as one under a new name.
He and his descendents began to embark on a conquest which lead to the Kingdom possessing more than 60% of The Continent's eastern, southern and central parts. It stayed this way until 1478, when the peoples of the continent's central part broke away and formed their own kingdom. This happened again in 1496 when the southwestern part of the kingdom won it's independence after a major battle.
This became the turning point in Segasaturnian History - this is what led to the Kingdom's decline, although it took another 400 years for it to finally fall and come under colonial control.
The Colonialization and industrialization of Segasaturn (1884 - 1978)
In 1884, an invasion force from France took over the kingdom - ending it's 700-year existence. Thenafter, it renamed Segasaturnia the Colony of Segasaturn and imposed a industrialization program which led to the construction of railroads, the modernization of cities, and the implementation of telegraph and telephone lines allowing for greater communication between cities and towns. Because of the small labor force in Segasaturn, France began to allow Immigration from Holland, Japan, People of German Descent from German-speaking nations, people of European and African Descent from English and French-speaking Colonies and nations, to build a skilled labor force in Segasaturn.
