Name of nation:

United Terran Federation

Species:

Humans

Description of government:

The Federation is headed by a President, acting as the head of the Federation as well as having the authority to suggest and break ties on laws. A bicameral Legislature exists, consisting of a Senate and Parliament. Each individual system within the Federation sends ten senators, and then the Parliament holds 800 seats, which are elected and decided upon the people, with the seats delegated to each system dependent on population. A Supreme Court exists, managing the Federation’s judicial system as well acting as the final say on whether or not a law goes against the rights granted to citizens.

Description of military:

The Federation’s military is divided into the Federal Navy, Federal Army, and Special Forces Corp. Each has different responsibilities and tactics, but they have developed cross-branch tactics when they need to work together, and are rather efficient when working with each other. In general however the military likes a hit fast hit hard doctrine, then reorganize and defend from the enemy counter-attack, and then strike again. The military also supports the Expeditionary Corp.

Federal Navy
The F.N focuses mainly on Capital vessels with support from many other craft. They tend to prefer highly mobile fleets that may be a bit on the weaker side instead of slow moving fortresses, but still maintain several dreadnoughts to that effect when the need for them arises.

Federal Army
A wide variety of super-sonic bombers, fighters, and gunships have become a main stay of the F.A’s forces, due to the belief that in atmosphere air power is one of the most crucial factors to winning in atmosphere battles beyond support from Space Naval Forces. The bulk of infantry are augmented with powered armor and light personal shielding, equipped with the latest in Federation technology. For vehicles, the Federation on ground uses a mixture of tanks, AMPVs, and mechanized walkers or suits. Any water naval forces also serve a dual-rose as large massive airships, using anti-gravity to shift between the water and air. Much like the Navy, they strike hard and fast, then regroup to counter the enemy counter-attack and strike again.

Special Forces Corps
The Special Forces exists of a number of divisions and other intelligence gathering organizations that work to support the military. Whether it be precisions strikes on enemy targets, or sneaking behind lines to gather information, they do everything not normally assigned to the F.N and F.A 

The Expeditionary Corps
The Expeditionary Corps is a part-civilian part-military organization that is responsible for exploring and finding new locations and colonies for the Federation.

Technological Overview:

The Federation considers itself fairly advanced, being a inter-system space-faring power. The standard FTL drive of the Federation is a warp drive, powered by negative energy, with quantum entanglement used for FTL communication. Negative energy also powers the Federation’s anti-gravity systems, making factories and other production centers that produce negative energy a common site within the Federation. The Federation also makes frequent use of anti-gravity technology within in atmosphere vehicles, making the Federation’s military fast on the ground.

The Federation has also made extensive developments into AI, cybernetics, robotics, and nano-robotics. AI is used almost everywhere in the Federation, from civilian A.I for managing trade routes, shipping lanes, and terraformers, to military A.I used to controls the Federation’s extensive robotic and drone forces in space and ground. A.I can also be seen  frequently being used in research purposes, due to their ability to manage high amounts of data. While AI is extensive in the Federation it has not yet achieved full sentience. Cybernetics are heavily developed and commonly replace limbs and enhance normal capabilities. Robotics is mainly used to help deal with work that is normally considered to hazardous for humans. Nano-robotics has been used to assist in manufacturing, medicine, and in augmentation. 

Genetic modification has also been extensively developed to deal with disease and increase food production, as well as enhance a human’s natural qualities. Genetic modification has also been used to grow artificial limbs to replace lost ones for those who do not want cybernetic replacements.

The Federation’s military makes use of a mix of energy(lasers, particle beams, and some prototype plasma weapons), kinetic(rail-guns and other accelerated projectiles, including RKVs. Most kinetic projectiles consist of tungsten or depleted uranium.), and explosive(standard explosives with chemical mixtures having been improved to provide more power to them, and of course nuclear devices of varying payloads). 

Shielding and Armor technology is also well-developed within the Federation. Starships make use of highly-advanced and complex alloys, in addition to carbon nano-tubes or graphene for most ships, with the shields used being standard energy shields, but they can be shifted in shape and even combined with other shields to change the design to counter certain weapons. Infantry and robots also have similar shields and alloys in their power armor.

Infantry have a number of personal devices in addition to their shields and armor, including a wide variety of communication devices, stealth measures, and other packages to assist in battle.

While the cloaking measures of the Federation are not the most advanced it has allowed them to develop a few stealth ships as well as cloak important facilities. Electronic Warfare has not been a measure that has been developed as the Federation’s best estimates say that any aliens encountered would have computer systems to dissimilar for electronic warfare to be of any use. 

The Federation draws power from 2 different sources; Nuclear Fusion and Negative Energy. Cold Fusion Reactors are the main source of energy in the Federation, and quite a common site to their efficiency and relatively low risks. Negative energy as mentioned is also quite common a site, due to the fact that it powers both FTL and anti-gravity systems within the Federation.

Propulsion as used by the Federation consists of mainly the aforementioned warp drive, anti-gravity for a lot of military in-atmosphere vehicles, ion drives for non-FTL propulsion in star ships. Chemical-based propulsion has mostly been phased out, with space elevators usually be used to ship stuff into orbit, and usually only used in space by civilian corporations looking to cut back on costs.

Terraforming is also a technology possessed by the Federation. While it was mostly developed to help restore Earth, experiments on Mars and a few other planets within Alpha Centauri are showing promising results, leading to some saying that within the next few years terraforming will be common within the Federation and used to make new habitable worlds, although leading terraforming experts say that large-scale terraforming is still decades off from current Federation tech.

Cultural Overview:
Ever since the end of the Third World War the overall culture of the Federation has been mixed in mashed due to the combination of so many Earth Nations. However in particular German, American, and British culture are very dominate on Earth, with English having taken over as the primary language of the Federation. Individual Systems and Planets have become dominated by other Earth cultures, such as New America adopting Asian practices and many colonies on Mars being focused on Middle-Eastern culture.

History:
The earliest history of the United Terran Federation and her formation goes back to events that lead to the Third World War. Europe, fearing more and more the reviving Russian Giant and their loss of influence and power to the growing Chinese Giant, formed the European Federation. Guided by the The United Kingdom and Germany, the European Federation was rising to challenge the status quo. Russia began making more aggressive moves, hoping to outpace the EF. However despite attempts by both Russia and China the EF managed to rise higher than most other nations, consolidating their power and directing influence to Africa in hopes to secure the resources there via trade agreements.

The USA also saw much change in this period, as it was forced to shut down many of it’s oversea bases amidst further economic troubles. Rioting became problem as the USA’s police forces and military began preparing for what was gearing to be a huge collapse. Both China and Russia began rapid expansion of their militaries, with plans to secure influence over huge chunks of land now that America was falling. In response to this the European Federation also began a rapid expansion of it’s military to secure itself against the coming giant. Tensions between Russia, the European Federation, and China further raised as incidents and revolutions in Africa occurred, with the European Federation and China usually supporting different sides. Many observers called this a second Cold War. The UN fell further into uselessness, as many nations withdrew and those remaining ignored the former treaties and acts that had been passed by it.

Tensions between the European Federation and Russia finally managed to spark into a full out war. Belarus, which had been considering joining the European Federation, was swiftly occupied by Russia. The EF demanded Russia withdraw or face a full out war with Europe, and of course Russia refused. The war began as Russian forces brutally pressed into the Scandinavian Peninsula and the Baltic nations. The European Federation sent many forces, as a huge devastating war with massive loss of life began. Within the first few months the death toll rose to more than 70 million, with the Geneva Conventions having been forgotten and torn to pieces. Civilians became a primary target for Russia, with Poland and the Balkans devastated by Russian firebombing campaigns. Renewable energy and other measures to prevent pollution were quickly abandoned in favor of fast production of war material, leaving many water sources and the air littered with dangerous contamination. 

While the war occurred the USA government fell and anarchy spread across much of the USA. However a new highly right-wing government managed to seize control of many states, and quickly restored order. While devastated from the anarchy, the new government instituted many policies that led to a rapid rebuilding of the USA. While this new government disagreed with many of the left-wing policies of the European Federation, it saw the resurging Russia and the Chinese Dragon as more of a threat. The New USA quickly declared war on Russia, launching a invasion from Alaska. China threatened war on both the European Federation and the New USA if the invasion was not canceled. Upon the New USA’s refusal China declared war, and added a whole new layer of brutality to the war. The war had finally been called WW3, as the nations of the world devoted their entire attention to the war.

Africa quickly became divided as those who fell under EF and China influence choose to support their chosen sponsors. Africa’s deserts quickly became bathed in blood, as various Asian Nations choose whether or not to support China. Many rallied behind the USA and European Federation, and the war became more brutal than before. The Death toll quickly rose to over 200 million, with cities becoming nothing but bombed out husks.

As the war continued a combined European and New USA offensive pushed into Russia and managed to capture Moscow, forcing them to surrender. China was forced on the defensive as the New USA’s fleets began harassing supply ships from Africa and other Chinese-Allied nations. China was becoming desperate as the New USA and EF cut of many of their options.

On August 21st, 2065, Los Angeles was lit up with a Chinese Nuclear ICBM. New Delhi also fell to Chinese Nukes, as India had chosen to align themselves with the European Federation. While the New USA and European Federation quickly moved in missile defenses, they were unable to save the cities of Istanbul, Belgrade, Sarajevo, Vienna, Warsaw, Dallas, Houston, and Miami. The New USA, EF, and its allies all met at Washington D.C to discuss their plan of action, and they consorted that the only had one option.

A month after the Chinese bombings Beijing and Hong Kong were nuked. As China did not foresee the use of nukes by the European Federation or the New USA, much of China’s central leadership was destroyed. This allowed for a final push, as China and her remaining allies were occupied. On September 19th, 2065, WW3 had finally drawn to a close. 20 years of unrelenting brutal war had devastated the Earth, cities destroyed, and pollution and radiation spreading around the globe. The final estimate for the death toll was placed at 600 million, 400 million of which was estimated to be civilian deaths.

The world’s remaining leaders convened this time in Ottawa, Canada to discuss the future. They decided that the only way to prevent another war and save the Earth was to unite it. This lead to the creation and signing of the United Earth Compact, creating a central Earth Government which held authority over all of it’s land and people, but remained democratic and free. They focused on space, hoping that with use of resources from their Earth could be saved.

Research was conducted, leading to the development of many of the space-faring technologies possessed by the Federation today. Most of Earth’s population was moved underground, or to floating sky cities powered by new anti-gravity systems as to save humanity and it’s future generations from the pollution and radiation scarred surface of Earth. Terraformers were placed on the surface to help begin in restoring Earth.

Earth slowly over decades became renewed by the resources from Sol, with it finally being fully restored. Humans slowly returned to the surface, once again population the grand concrete jungles and bringing them up to the future technology, although out of fear some areas such as Eastern Europe remained unpopulated. With Earth finally restored humanity began deciding it was time to reach to the stars.

In the year 2201, the United Earth Compact made the decision, with the development of the warp drive and the settling of other bodies within Sol, that a name change was needed. Thus was the birth of the United Terran Federation. A small colony was set up on a habitable planet within Alpha Centuarii and christened New America. The Federation now seeks to expand across the stars, see if they are alone, and find out what came before them.

Welcome to the reboot of Stellvia! For those of you who weren’t aware, Stellvia was a RP originally run by Keyguy with the intent of rather than everyone being grand imperial empires or massive multicultural federations, we were all Empires who only (relatively) recently began reaching into the stars. Maybe your nation has only recently discovered FTL and settling it’s first colonies, maybe your nation has reached space but has no method of FTL, and thus is reliant on cryogenics to settle distant worlds, or it is even possible that your nation only just took it’s first steps into space and it’s own moon. Regardless of what your nation is, this NRP focuses more on new nations who are growing and discovering those around them. If this goes on long enough we may reach the point where everyone is now massive empires or federations, but that won't be a while.

1. As this is a RP, standard rules apply. No Godmodding, powerplaying, etc.
2. Shitposting, memes, discussing the RP, and other such things are fine in the OOC. What is not fine is massive arguments about the RP that spiral into hissy-fights. If it becomes an issue add me to a PM and I will resolve it.
3. I and our communist overlords ,@keyguyperson and @Ophidian, have the final say. If you would like to protest our decisions then please PM us and we might be convinced to change our minds.
4. As this is based around small empires, there will not be a single massive empire or federation. At most you should have FTL technology and some future-age space weapons with a few nearby colonies that are nowhere close to be fully developed. If you have an awesome idea that is odd or doesn’t fit this criteria but you think would work in the RP, contact me and something could be arranged.
5. The reply blob is a false god, and anyone caught worshipping him will be stoned to death as a heretic.
6. FTL is slow and tech is limited to fit in with the theme of the RP. However, there is a precursor gate network to allow for near instant travel to specific points in the galaxy. More will revealed about the precursors as the RP progresses
