African Union
The African Union is a member state of the Federal Government of Earth, responsible for governing the continent of Africa on Earth. It was founded in 2002 CE as a collection of independent states on the continent. Many of its member states experienced significant hardship throughout the 21st century CE, with most of them ceding authority to the United Nations before the end of the century. The organisation federalised in 2114 CE, shortly after its last member state (South Africa) surrendered its sovereignty to the UN.
The African Union experienced significant upheaval during the 22nd century CE, with Operation Green Sahara permanently transforming the northern half of the continent, the Rainforest Wars, the Saharan Insurgency, and the Mauritanian Police Action throughout the century. The start of the 23rd century CE and the discovery of faster-than-light travel saw the continent finally stabilise, and it is now a major source of food and raw minerals for the Sol System.
