Oh dear god, server, stahp help.

Name of nation: Confederatio Benetico

Species: Multiple due to the immigrant nature of the populace, however as of late the prime component is human.

Description of government: A reaction against the centralizing that most other interstellar species undergo, it is similar, though not identical, to a liberal democracy. As all citizens are of immense means, the government has only one responsibilities; secure the rights of its citizens. Therefore, all legislation is passed via referendum, and executive power is invested in the Doge (in conscious imitation of Earth) and the Federal Senate, a 20 man body (one from each planet) which has 10 year terms. The Doge has a lifetime appointment, and is head of state, but only posseses one significant power, that of Commander-in-chief. The head of goverment is the Principe of the Federal Senate, equivalent to the prime minister. The Federal Senate conducts all foreign policy including the decision to go to war. The decision to launch the missiles must be approved by the Doge and the Principe, or by 8 members of the Federal Senate.

Description of military: The military consists of only two branches, the Strategic and the Tactical Commands.
The Strategic Command is the main focus of the military. It comprises all the missiles silos, all the stealth ships, and capital ships, each of which carry the two weapons of mass destruction, generally named Catalyst and Quark bombs. Catalyst bombs are variable yield. By adding more catalyst, electron decay of the target is accelerated, from a large number of tactical weapons capable of destroying a ship to a small number strategic weapon capable of destroying a clustered fleet (with all electrons decayed in rapid fashion, the nuclei mutually repel and blast at rapid speed, blasting tactical levels of catalyst with them into other ships. Quark bombs are far more destructive, far more expensive and exceedingly rare. They contain strangelets, which convert all matter they touch into the more stable strange configuration, turning whole planets into incredibly dense, hot lumps.

The Tactical Command comprises all lesser ships, planetary defenses, and ground forces.

In general, the navy is extremely potent but small. In a general war with a large civilization, it would lose.

Technological Overview: With its low population, only 100,000, the society is heavily automated. Soldiers are robotic, ships are fully automated (with a small staff of officers giving grand stategic direction or a manual override) (WIP)

Cultural Overview: WIP
History: WIP

Asta, my original statement contained no mention of coordinates, duck started that in his insistence that his people only have one type of map, a super complicated mess that nobody bothers to learn.

As such, I proposed that if the people lack maps in the most simple form (As I said before, you can point out the approximate location of important places IE: Capital, hometown, etc on a map) then they would likely move to the alternative of memorising the coordinates of important locations.

And quite simply, I used this method because I was certain it would have a higher chance of success; ducks computers probably would have had this stashed away behind several hundred encryptions if I tried to access his computers (Not necessarily unfounded, I would be ill at ease with the idea of leaving such information at risk of possible capture). But apparently, ducks space faring citizens have decided that apathy to map reading skills is the best position to hold when going on ventures to an outpost in space...

Edit: Just so everyone knows, after me and duck reconciled the uber assault of the original boarding and went with a less... Insane one... Me and duck agreed that if I took the station I would not attempt to attack/invade/destroy several systems (Most important among them being Sol and Alas Prime) so I didn't mess up keyguys and his plot before they got to develop it. Putting this here now so everyone can hold me to account if I renege on this before Duck/Keys plotline is completed or otherwise ended.

Oh.

Duck, that's stupid, and kind of makes me wonder if you're going on the defensive simply because you're not liking the plot you and Darkwolf are running together.

If you don't like it, just say you don't and move on to something else. Making up on-the-fly bullshit isn't the correct way of going about this.

Oh dear god, server, stahp help.

I need to seal up the memory leak, be right back.

So NOW you see.

He's been doing that bolded stuff for ages. Even back when he was 'still inexperienced.'

Grass.

Work on my sheet progresses. Anyone have any concerns?

Anyway, currently are there any Nations that are not immediately hostile to unknown creatures and not under attack by the spore hive mind?
