==Overview==
The International Unified Legislatures served as the primary supranational authority for Earth and the colonies from its inception in 2123 CE to its dissolution in 2336 CE. The International Unified Legislatures was originally founded in London, United Kingdom on March 17, 2123 CE, through the signing of Amendment XII of the Writ of Rotterdam. The IUL was tasked with operating a regulated and universal military force to provide police duties and border protection to the increasingly-large area of Human colonization. The Secretariat of the International Unified Legislatures was located at the intersection of Downing Street and Trafalgar Square in London, United Kingdom, EU.
==Structure==
The IUL was founded around the the Legislation, a unicameral body in which each colonial system was allowed two delegates. A 'Chief Legislator' was elected from amongst the legislators to helm sessions of the Legislation. The International Military Administration, an agency designed to operate and command the IUL's regulated military forces, was a quasi-independent agency nominally under the control of a professional military command though with funding controlled and approved by the IUL. The IUL's area of jurisdiction was considered intersystem commerce as well as security, colonial structure, corporate regulation, and supranational taxation.
