Coruscant–Server Federation relations

"*Coruscant as a whole sees the value in remaining connected with the Server Federation, and hopes that this reevaluation of a hasty decision will lead to mutual prosperity for both nations.*" —isaacr4760
**Coruscant–Server Federation relations** are bilateral relations between the Socialist Technocracy of Coruscant and the Server Federation. Since 39 AK, the relationship has been one-sided. While Coruscant continues to operate an embassy in the Server Federation, the Federation cancelled plans to build an embassy in Coruscant due to perceived religious discrimination against Orthodox Conchists in the *Coruscant Constitution*, which was first published on January 20, 2021 (Day 5, Year 38 AK).

## History

Prior to its independence, Coruscant was part of Hoth, which became a territory of the Server Federation with the passage of the Hoth Act on December 3, 2020 (29:2). On December 14 (31:3), Territorial Archduke of Hoth isaacr4760 expressed interest in the island of Coruscant applying to become a full constituent government within the Federation, which was dismissed by many in the President MalachiBrown523 administration because of conflicting interpretations of the minimum requirements outlined in the Territory to Constituent Government Act. The disagreement escalated into the Hoth Crisis, when the entire territory of Hoth declared independence from the Server Federation to join the First Newportian Empire. After a brief period of increased tensions between the Federation and the Empire, the Federation recognized the secession of Hoth as valid on December 15 (31:4).

On December 20, 2020 (32:4), Coruscant was granted independence from the Empire by Emperor lonellamaMV. The Server Federation recognized Coruscant as an independent state with the passage of the Coruscant Act on December 27 (34:1), which also called for the two countries to exchange embassies. Coruscant's embassy to the Server Federation opened in Kipkem soon after.

On January 20, 2021 (38:5), Coruscant adopted the *Coruscant Constitution*, which sparked controversy over its alleged religious discrimination against Orthodox Conchists. The constitution classifies Orthodox Conchism, Agnosticism, and Atheism as a "third-tier" religions, and prohibits temples and headquarters of these religions from being constructed on the island. It also excludes adherents to third-tier religions from receiving UBI without approval from the archduke. Server Federation President MalachiBrown523 strongly condemned the constitution, saying, "This goes against all ideals of democracy and equal rights." On January 23 (39:3), the Server Federation World Congress passed the Anti-Discrimination Act, which repealed the Coruscant Act and cancelled Federate plans to build an embassy in Coruscant "on account of religious discrimination", while still recognizing Coruscant as an independent nation. In response, Coruscanti Archduke isaacr4760 stated his acceptance of the Federation's decision and said that the Coruscanti embassy in Kipkem would not be dismantled, though he later argued that the Anti-Discrimination Act was not "fully thought through".

On February 4 (41:5), Federation President crista7777 announced plans to "readdress" relations with Coruscant. The next day, the Coruscant Relations Committee within the World Congress was established to consider repealing the Anti-Discrimination Act.

As one of multiple amendments made to the *Coruscant Constitution* on February 7 (42:3), Coruscant Prime Minister isaacr4760 announced a shift in foreign policy toward the Server Federation. Instead of pursuing relations with the Federation as a whole, isaacr4760 intends to open separate embassies with each of the four Federate constituent governments. "There is not to be a Server Federation Embassy on Coruscant," reads the constitution, "rather, separate embassies for each constituency." As of January 27 (259:2), none of the Federate constituencies have reciprocated Coruscant's intentions.
