United Alliance of Planets

The United Alliance of Planets, or commonly known as 'The Alliance', is a the continuum-wide authoritarian super-government, that controls the entire universe known to humanity, known as the Continuum. Often referred to as the Anglo-Sino Alliance, it governs a multi-cultural, multi-lingual society over a total 37 planets, and a further 77 moons.

The Alliance is often considered nothing less than a brutal corporocracy, however sometimes seen as the beacon of civilisation in an uncertain world, if you believe the propaganda that is.

The United Alliance has several subject nations which have been granted regional administrations over some parts of the continuum, due to the Alliance's immense territory, and focuses its influence on the Capital planets in the Bai Hui System, (the White Sun System), the worlds first colonised by Earth-That-Was's powers of the 22nd century, the United Kingdom, United States, China and Brazil, while the Outer Planets, which had less of the Alliance's focus are much less developed.
