Commonwealth of the Seddrath

"The beauty of the Commonwealth is that it works." - Ilusiminom Coslan Silos, Governor of Jelan
The Commonwealth of the Seddrath is a small nation constituting of 13 systems linked together via spacelanes which slower-than-light ships traverse. With four major worlds, and around seventy smaller colonies, the Commonwealth has a total population of around 460 billion. The Commonwealth is located on the outskirts of the Cerlus Cluster, a dense globular cluster with around 800 000 stars. The Commonwealth has no knowledge of any civlization anywhere, despite their location in the Cerlus Cluster.

== Astrogeography ==
The Commonwealth of the Seddrath is spread over 13 stars in the globular Cerlus Cluster. The stars are relatively close together, with the largest distance between stars approaching one light year. Omnust and Ioni are the closest together, at only a mere 54 light-days; approximately 1.4 light-months. Comprising of 7 M-class, 2 K-class, 2 G-Class and 1 F-Class stars, most colonies are located in the central system of Penran, a K and M-class binary system. 
==Culture==
Over everything, the citizens of the Commonwealth value freedom. They are allowed to do whatever they want, whenever they want. There are very few standing laws, such as the enforcement of compulsory voting, and the banning of murder. Apart from these, there are no other major laws. As such, the culture is incredibly varied. As the original nation-states of Aolius merged many years ago, the culture there is rather uniform, but over the entire Commonwealth literally anything is possible. 
== Population ==
Currently, the population of the Commonwealth is 463.7 billion people. It has been skyrocketing for over three thousand years, from a base population of around a million Seddrath that survived the nuclear war. It is predicted to hit 10.5 trillion people by the end of the millennium, so the Seddrath are currently implementing population control methods and building vast structures to house these uncountable millions. Such population controls would only make the resulting population vary around 500 billion people, by only having slightly more children that are dying.
