The United Planets

The United Planets is a loose organization of worlds who exist less as a single government and more an alliance of independents regulating trade and interplanetary relationships. Local laws vary, but there are a set of basic Affirmations laid out in the Concordance of Stellar Sovereignties or "ConStel" and ratified by all members. These ConStelAtions have the force of law on all member worlds.

The UP is based on a neutral, artificially terraformed planet called Nexus. It resembles 21st century Washington, DC, USA writ global. Many steps and columns. Most tranquil.

In the ConStel Criminal Justice System, sentients are served by two separate, but equally important groups. The Star Patrol who investigate crimes and the Nexus Rangers who are responsible for the safety of the UP as a whole. We're playing their stories.

Rangers are limited in their scope but broad in authority, whereas Patrol is responsible for the day to day dispensing of justice and order. There is significant rivalry between the groups in cases that cross jurisdiction, such as entities like Empress Mechanica, who is only interested in the conquest of individual planets, but is also a sovereign ruler of a foreign power.
