United Nations of Earth

The United Nations of Earth, commonly referred to as the UNE or United Nations or simply the Union, is the ruling government of Earth. It controls Earth proper, its only natural satellite and several territories throughout the Sol System. The United Nations is a federal democracy, split among 195 nation federal subjects that were subordinate to the federal "union" government. This government was administered by the Federal Senate, the Federal Supreme Court and Executive Committee, which was elected by the Federal Senate. The seat of the Senate and Executive is New York City which constitutionally acts as federal capital as seat of the Senate. The Hague acts as seat for the Federal Supreme Court and de facto was the judicial capital of Earth.
The United Nations of Earth was formed during the Third World War (UNE) as a counter military union to the union of nations that initiated the nuclear holocaust. After the war the United Nations of Earth transitioned to a civilian controlled government and union of government and military organizations that lead to a new era of global peace,. The union government began an immediate expansion toward the stars and colonized the moon and further on to the other planets of the system in an attempt to repair the devastated economy of the world. Millions flocked to off-world colonies to escape the current desperate situation on Earth and at its height the Earthen Colonial Empire as it was called controlled every planet in the system along with several territories beyond forcing the expansion of the United Nations Space Command would eventually become the greatest military power in human history. Over time mistreatment and mismanagement of some colonies and general insurrectionist movements led to the gradual decay of Earthen control of some colonies beginning with the Venusian War of Independence that eventually forced the Earth to grant its colonies independence until the planets of the system were all sovereign states.
Its history as a colonizer fractured the Earth's relations with a handful of the planets in the system which drew it into several interplanetary conflicts, many which had severely effected the Earth's populace. By the 2170s the situation had become a cold war between the UNE and its allies and alliance headed by Jupiter.
