The Coalition dosen't have slaves. It's more like, a motherfucking. soft political take over. Think along the lines of having your peoples technology, culture, political lingo and general life style slowly seep in or handed to them as gifts. It's not necessarily a hostile take over, more a "join the union or enjoy having your trade routes and military stifled" or have vague threats that all in political no speak.

The art of threatening you without threatening you. Red tape jungles that tie you up the more and more you are into the Coalition. Races join it because between the Coalition and Humanity, the sense of insecurity even for space faring races sky rockets. Then you are propergated against humanity and made paranoid and they try to convince you that you need the Coalition so they do all sorts of sneaky political shit.
