Regional Overview
The Galactic Senate is the hub of interplanetary politics for the Galaxy. Be it the Jedi, trying to maintain peace, order, and the old ways of life; Sith, trying to usher in a new era, with them at the seat of power; or any of the innummerable systems amongst the stars, they all meet in the Senate.
Origins
In a time the galaxy was split by many regions. "The Jedi Council", "The United Empires of the Sith", "The Dark Side", and "The Dark Empire". The Jedi region feuded with the Sith regions for long, violent battles sprawling up in the galaxy. The founder of "The Jedi Council", Jedi Master Obi-Wan, went to the Sith regions and gave them an idea. An idea of democracy, power, strength and free governing. The Sith Regions of "The United Empires of the Sith" and "The Dark Empire" refused the offer, keeping with thier own, idiotic, old ways.
However, The Founder of the Dark Side, Sith Master Thomas, realised the power gained by such a region, so agreed to move. Jedi Master Obi-Wan founded the Region "The Galactic Senate" and all the patron nations of "The Jedi Council" moved to it. The Dark Side nations followed, and since "The Galactic Senate" has been a becon of trading, Rps and debates.
To this day, "The Galactic Senate" is a healty, democratic region sprawling with 100+ Star Wars fan nations.
Yes, this is the shelter of all Star Wars fans. May the Force lead you to our midst.
Regional News
Right now, we are working on a Galactic Constitution and a common currency. We are getting very well organized and our Roleplay potential is extreme. The forum is full with new adventures, plots and quests all the time. The Jawas recently created their own Market where they trade nations!
Politics and the Senate
While these things are still being ironed out in the Senate, parts of the political system have been determined.
Nations join the Senate by moving there, and automatically earn a Senate seat, which they may use to express opinions and bring up issues of concern to their nations. In this way all Senators have equal say.
Nations may choose to enter into a coalition of nations, better known as a Party. In this way, they can provide more emphasis on their positions by gaining the support of their party. Every party is headed by the party Rep, and in turn the party Rep voices the concerns of his constituent nations in the Representative Chamber, where policy issues are debated.
While no official documents set this down, the Chamber is in the process of developing a set of principles which would guide the Senate for the future.
The Party System in the Galactic Senate
A multi-party system exists in the Galactic Senate; in fact the number of parties existing at any one moment is only limited by the number of member nations of the Senate. However, with some notable exceptions, nations tend to fall into one of the various "established" parties.
Jedi
The Jedi party is home to all those who live by the ideals of the Jedi Code. They welcome all who wish to follow these ideals to train as a Padawan and become a Jedi Knight.
Sith
The Sith is the party of choice for all those who feel the call of the Dark Side, to train and become members of the Sith. It is the path to follow if your despise the ideals of the 'foolish Jedi'.
Droids
The center of power for all the Disenfranchised Droid populations out there, whether they were cast aside by their creators, or commissioned by a super-powerful planetary computer to collect information about the galaxy.
Rebels
The Rebels seek to end tyranny and oppression in the Galactic Senate. They take a more outward role in Senate proceedings than did the Rebels of a certain movie series. The place to be if freedom is a first priority.
Bounty Hunters
The most organized this profession has ever been, they represent the interests of all the 'alternative' economic systems in the Galaxy. Making money at the expense of others is their motto.
Jawas
These cunning business-creatures now control the legal trading of all nation's on NationStates. Join them to become a player in interregional planet trading, or because those big sandcrawlers are fun to drive around.
