Union Central Committee
The Union Central Committee is Union’s executive body.
Spread across various campuses on Cradle, it is a vast
administrative body eclipsing all other departments in
organizational scope – though not in size.
By virtue of its home on Cradle, CentComm is largely
isolated from the rest of the galaxy, though few – if
any – other bodies have comparable access to
information and data. With live information from
curated omninet feeds, input from Diasporan and
Cosmopolitan representatives, advisement from
GALSIM, and many other channels of information,
CentComm manages the affairs of the galaxy at a
huge scale. Its mission is to ensure the long-term
survival of humanity and the cohesive and copacetic
functioning of all states under Union. Following the
installation of ThirdComm, CentComm acts to implement,
ensure, and perpetuate the Utopian Pillars as
optimally as possible. With a few exceptions, all other
departments of Union are at its disposal.
There have been three iterations of Union’s central government
– the First, Second, and Third Committees.
Representation on CentComm is guaranteed to
constituent states on the basis of internally determined
representatives or delegations, typically a delegation of
representatives sent by the constituent state or an administrator
with intimate knowledge of a region. Decisionmaking
is democratic, with ties – should they occur –
broken by a “doomed elector”: a representative randomly
determined by GALSIM to carry the weight of breaking ties.
