OOC: I know this is my "hyiadus", but I have had this on my computer for quite a long time, and I'm posting it.
Allied Union of Velkya
(The Factbook)
Full Name: Allied Union of Velkya
Short names and abbreviations: Velkya, Velkyan Union, Allied Union, The Union, AU, AUV
Type of Government: Planetary Democracy
In a Planetary Democracy, every planet in the nation contributes senators to a senate in the Capital World (in Velkya's case, it's Earth territory, which is quite large). Every planet has an equal say in the government and law making. Each senator is obliged to follow his planet's wishes, otherwise he can be voted out of office. The entire thing is headed by a President, whom the people directly vote for and is elected by popular vote. Semiannual surveys are conducted, and if a President's approval rating drops below 30%, he may be subject to investagation and possible impeachment. The President also serves as Commander-in-Cheif of the Armed Forces. The Vice-President, who runs with the President, is a second in command of the Armed Forces and moniters diplomatic traffic.
