General

The Federal Republic of Space Union is a huge federation of 12 states and 8 territories that came to power after a bloodless-coup overthrew the Imperial Republic of Space Union and installed the Federal Republic of Space Union. Space Union is located in The Southern Ocean region and is the third most powerful nation located there. Although it is has Space in its name it is not found in space but is presueing the goal currently and plans on building a space empire as a long-term goal. Its current population numbers at 958 million which is responsible for Space Unions tremondous economic power.

Space Union has a very free capitalist society that allows huge corporations to flourish such as the Uranium Mining Inc. that controls the uranium industry.

Trade

Space Unions conducts huge trade with other nations. Space Union main export is the car but increasingingly cheaper made foreign cars entering the market has resulted in foreign-made cars to have a tariff on them that is helping the Space Union's automobile industry. In trade, however, Space Union is running a a trade deficit that continues to grow each year. It is expected to exceed $120 Billion in a few years if the problem isn't resolved. Currently, Space Union's trade deficit is the biggest in the region.

Government Budget

The current government budget is at $12 trillion dollar but is expected to go down later in the decade as the government cuts taxes in its new policy and decreases spendings in liberal areas.

Administration

Currently the government spends $113 billion on operating on daily bases. This is equivelent to 1% of the National budget.

Social Welfare

Social Welfare is one of the least spent areas in the national budget. It receives $681 Billion or only 6% of the national budget. Spending in social welfare is expected to decrease as the Space Union takes more conservative policy.

Education

Education is one of the most heavily funded area in the national budget. Education is at $1 trillion or 9% of the national budget. Education funding is expected to increase.

Government Structure

Space Union's government is a Federal Republic. It is headed by two presidents. This way each president counter balances each other. The government has three branches of powers.

Executive Branch

The Executive branch is headed by two presidents and a single cabinent of 12 advisors. The two presidents balance eachother from gaining too much power. The two presidents jointly pick a cabinent of 12 advisors. The executive branch is responsible for carrying out laws. This is the only branch able to veto.

Legislative Branch

The Legislative branch is made out of 3 chamers: Senate, Parliment, and Tribune. All three chambers make up the Congress of the Space Union. Laws are made here and go through congress before it goes to Executive branch.

Judicial Branch

This branch covers all the courts in the country. The Supreme Court is at the top of the lane with National Courts below it and District courts as the lowest level of Judicial power. Laws must be ratified by the court to pass. They are the only branch able to overide the executive veto.

States and Territory

Space Union is compromised of 12 states and 6 territories. Of the 12 states 8 founded the union with 4 being annexed in the following years. The 6 territories were annexed lands that were given the right to govern themselves but with Space Union influence. They are independent governing bodies that are still controlled by Space Union. Mostly they are used as defense bases but some are there for economic and minority reasons.

Territories

1.Zryden- Space Union's most powerful territory. It has the largest economy and most powerful government of any territory. It is one of the fastest growing economies in Space Union. Zryden features a All-Consuming economy and is the only territory capable of being fully independent of Space Union. But because of success in Space Union it is highly unlikely that Zryden will rally for independence.


2.Mannville- Mannville is one of Space Union's most powerful economic territory. It has unprecedentant economic growth that is expected to grow. It currently has a powerhouse economy.


3.Mannster- A communist safeheaven that is totally run by an authoritarian, communist government. It is the poorest territory in Space Union. With the toppling of the Imperial government and the statement of the Federal government, Mannster will likely become a capitalist society and the communist will be expelled or put in prison.


4.Harsimranville- The oldest territory of Space Union. It harbors Space Union's biggest military base where secret projects are conducted by Space Union's government.


5.Mann Capitalism- Area with pure capitalism and corporation run the government. It is one of the corporate paradice in Space Union.


6.International Amero- A consumerist economy that is ruled by capitalist politicians. Has one of the strongest economies and is one of the most valuable territories in Space Union's pocession.


7.Khaliastan- Relgious area that is experiencing tremondous economic growth in the years. It was recently annexed and is expected to become a powerful territory soon.


8.United Fascist- Newly annexed territory that is a shelter for Fascist followers. Run by Fascist government it is a corporate police state with a strong, industralized economy.


Territories are allowed to issue their own currency, flag and offices. They also are allowed to deal with international community but with Space Union influence. Citizens of these territories are not Space Union citizens. They are allowed to pick whatever government they choose and whatever economic system they use. But Space Union influences their decisions and ultimely have to listen to Space Union government.

Note: Because of the fall of the Imperial Republic of Space Union and the installation of the Federal Republic of Space Union, communist are no longer allowed to live in the country and are expected to either be put in prisons or exported out of the country.

International Politics

Space Union used to be an isolationist country that wanted nothing to do with world politics. But when the regime change occured, Space Union actively presued a imperialist policy in the form of helping capitalist countries in exchange for communism be destroyed in their country. Space Union's biggest international policy is the Anti-Communist Doctrine. This doctrine said that Space Union would finacially and militaristically aid any country overthrowing or resisting communist power. Over the time, Space Union has become a important nation in world politics.

Anti-Communist Docrine

When Space Union changed into a democratic country, Space Union expelled all communist and banned the Communist Party to only Tribune Seats. Also Space Union passed the Anti-Communist Doctrine that said that Space Union's government would:

1) Assist any country resisting or overthrowing communist power. It would give finacial and militaristic assistance.

2) Any country that helps a communist country become free would get a reward of $100 billion.

3) If a new country that needs help and is a capitalist, right-wing society, will receive $20 billion upfront and $10 billion each year for 10 years.

Over the year this doctrine has also extended to nations that are fighting against Dictatorships.

Assertion of Anti-Communist Doctrine

Currently, the Space Union has used this doctrine to assist the government in Azban from falling under communist rebels. We have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Armies located their. We also have the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Air Armadas located in the region. Also Space Union has deployed the Peacekeeping Naval Armada, 1st Naval Armada, and 2nd Naval Armada. Also Space Union has projected the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th Armies into the Gortogo Wars for peacekeeping operations. Many other nations have received economic aid from Space Union.

Currently, Roach-Busters is Space Union's main ally in many affairs such as the Azban Conflict.
