The **United Confederacy of Exiles**, also known as **UCE**, **U.C.E.** or the **Exiles Confederacy**, is a supranational union comprised of banished micronations, other nations, refugees and various groups by the United Nations & Creations.

## History

### Foundation & Formation

It was founded by a president of a new nation that was completely built from the ground up. This man, was Marcus Silversword. He made a deal with various other nations that were micronations, banished people and newly form nations around the Babel System of the Cascadia Galaxy. The offer is that he will help some of the nations with their problem with some of his people assisting and in return, they all create a supranational union together in order to survive in the new galaxy after their banishment. Everyone agreed to it. This also include New Kickassia, Molossia, Libertad, Aerica, and Ladonia. Later, it recruited various other nations. It also included the ever growing powerful Bir-Corrino Empire of Oasis in the Babel System with their moon, Sandune, being a major spice harvesting site.
They even came into contact with the Concordance Extraction Corporation, now reformed as the Concordance Nomadic Republic, with their massive fleets of Planet Cracker-class starships that are ready for vast strip-mining of various dead worlds with no terraforming prospects as they can tear planets apart for resources. They even have another powerful corporation that had become an official government such as the Union Aerospace Corporation, now known as the United Astra Commonwealth, with major weapons such as BFG's on their vessels that can blow a hole in planets. With their help, the U.N.E. now have the resources and firepower necessary to protect themselves along with fighting any hazards in their new galaxy. Even from other supranational unions in the Cascadia Galaxy.

This new union seeks to spread out to help many nations that have been cast out of the Milky Way by the United Nations & Creations. They even go as far as to end slavery, ensure security, plenty of resources for everybody, acceptance for all species, and free trade. It may had a few conflicts with some of its members not using slaves, but in order to survive, they have to abandon such practices.

### The Cold War & Reversal of Chaos

The many members of the newly established Confederacy still have some hatreds for the UN&C with many wanting payback. They may have been cut-off from the Milky Way, but there are still a few bits of machinery that can keep track of the UN&C and many of its members. This also includes being able to watch some new animes, YouTube videos with many YouTubers still alive, and much news. The UN&C are completely unaware of this and this gives many in the UCE some insight. They even discovered a few puppet states of the UN&C in the Cascadia Galaxy to keep an eye on the former micronations and those that have been banished. Others say that there are a few nations that support the UCE when it was discovered by the puppet states on November 5th of 2020. There was some mutual agreements but the Confederacy is still on its toes.

While declaring a cold war, there has been some terrible rumors about people worshiping the Ruinous Powers of Chaos. Many feared that the Gods of Chaos would come and try to corrupt while bringing their champions and daemons into this new galaxy before reaching stability. Chaos cannot be stop so easily as to have people stop negative thoughts or having certain kinds of thoughts. Instead, they created a new philosophical religion that would change the nature of Chaos. The Gods of Chaos have both positive and negative aspects of the mind with the exception of Malal or Malice who controlled a more negative aspect. In response to this, they would spread the idea of the Chaos Gods having some more positive aspects such as honor, art, knowledge and rebirth that could change the appearance of these gods such as having Khorne being an honorable warrior in armor that doesn't slaughter, Tzeentch being a wise part crow and part human being that spreads wisdom and enlightenment, Nurgle is seen as a decaying grim reaper that is also seen with some plant life growing on it which represents nature, and Slaanesh is seen as a purple-skinned horned goddess that is the goddess of sex, freedom, art, and nothing that involves corruption, agony or corruption. All those are transferred to Malal, who is the Chaos version of the devil.

Thanks to this new philosophy, the Gods of Chaos have changed into something benevolent with more positive aspects while Malal is seen as an incarnation of evil.

### Coming Across Others

On the 1st of December of the same year, the UCE came across other unions in the Cascadia Galaxy. Two they came across are at war with each other due to their polar opposite ideologies. This includes the Great Workers' Unity, a collection of nations that follow leftist ideologies such as communism, syndicalism, socialism and other such thoughts that fall under these jurisdictions. The second is the Grand Axis Alliance, a collection of rightist ideologies such as conservatism, nationalism, fascism and other schools of thought. Both sides completely hate each other due to their conflicting ideas on how this new galaxy should be run. So, the UCE avoids any and all contact with them and let them kill each other.

Upon the 16th of December, the UCE came across a few smaller leagues and unions on the fringes of the galaxy. This includes the Independence League, a league of various micronations and other nations that prefer to be completely autonomous and avoid becoming full-fledged unions (which is ironic). Each nation is autonomous but do interact with each other with each of them having small trade blocs and smaller martial unions in order to avoid being a large one. They also came across the Caprola Union, which is a small union of fictional countries and nations from various games and fiction such as Kyrat and Panau along with others that were kicked out into space along with megacorporations. The UCE does some limited trade with the Independence League and the Caprola Union since both sides don't want much interactions with outside influences.

The next day, they discovered a collection of factions and governments made by the Templin Institute known as, The Templin Coalition, headed by the Templin Institute government. Both sides made a trading, cooperative and martial pact that allow them to tread freely with no complications. This became known as the Templin Pact.

## Members

*See: Category of U.C.E. Members*

The U.C.E. is comprised of various micronations, former nations and various groups that have been kicked out of Earth or various areas of the multiverse. There are a lot of fictional, non-licensed government from fan-made stuff such as Nation States, Cyber Nations, and many more.

## Government

Some parts of the Confederacy is modeled after the Confederacy of Independent Systems from Star Wars along with the Antares Confederacy by the Templin Institute. It is rocky at the beginning but it manages to hold together. It is headed by three presidents with each one being in-charge of the offices and branches of the government. The first is the Confederate President, who serves as head of state yet has relatively weak authority but also represents the Confederacy as a whole. The Council President heads the executive branch of the UCE who works alongside the Confederate President in the Confederate Council. The Parliamentary President is head of the legislative branch of the Parliament of Representatives of the Confederacy. Each of these three presidents can serve three terms, which is four years for each term, and will remain as long has they have the majority votes, maintain the confidence of almost all members of the Confederacy, the trust of the people and won't change the constitutions and policies that have been set.

### Executive Branch

The executive branch of the U.C.E. is the Confederate Council. It is an advisory body as well as carrying out and enforce laws. It includes both Confederate and Council Presidents, the departments and the committee. There is no limited term for the council members to serve under yet they can be voted in by all members of the Confederate Council. Yet all members have to go through a screening process to ensure there is no corruption.

### Legislative Branch

The legislative branch of the U.C.E. is the Parliament of Representatives. It is divided into an upper house and a lower house. The upper house is the Grand Eighteen, which each member represents a sector under the U.C.E. There is no set terms for each representative yet they are voted by many people of the sectors they represent. The lower house is the House of Representation, which house many senators and representatives from each nation or group in the Confederacy. There can be one senator and four representatives for each nation or group with representatives being elected in for a single term of fifteen years but a senator is elected and will be willing to spend nearly a lifetime if there is no trace of corruption. The Parliamentary President is in charge of the House of Representation that help bind all of them together as well as the voice of the Confederacy.

### Judicial Branch

The judicial branch of the U.C.E. is the Judicial Court of the Confederacy. It is headed by the Supreme Judge. However, they also sent out law enforcement officers similar to the Judges of Judge Dredd called, Judiciary Enforcers, when handling terrorists, violent anarchists or non-state actors, criminal organizations, slave trading and unauthorized smuggling operations. Like in the series, they are the police, judge, jury and executioners. However, the use of these enforcement officers will lessen over time since these officers are for the early stages of the Confederacy to fend off against hostiles and protect fledgling nations. Once the Confederacy have gotten big enough, the Judiciary Enforcers would become part of the other, smaller police forces or be members of the military.

It is estimated that the Judiciary Enforcers will only last ten years. Once that happens, they can form special police forces that apprehend, NOT KILL, suspects and take them to the Judicial Court if the crime is major (spreading across more than one solar system) or a local supreme court for more local crimes.

## Military

Despite each nation having their own military, many of them do stand united with various uniforms being different pending on which sector they are from with the U.C.E. symbol on them in similar fashion to ACCA from ACCA-13: Territory Inspection Department. There are three branches of the Confederate Military: The Navy, the Army and the Exploratory Corps. People can move up ranks pending on years of service or have performed some feat of heroics with those under their command or alone.

### Confederate Navy

The Confederate Navy is a unique combination of space-based navy with air force, maritime navy, and a marine corps. It is comprised of various ships from every single nation that have been donated or been acquired by the U.C.E. while also combining with other fleets from various other space navies of all the countries. Much of the hierarchy and structure is modeled after Starfleet Command from the early to mid 23rd century of Star Trek along with Alliance Fleet from Star Wars.

There are some badges to identify which branch of the Navy they are in in the form of a four pointed star, which is the main symbol of the Confederacy, as the square background being blue in color. However, that is for the top half of the star. A gold star represents the command division, which is the corps of officers and crewmen within the navy who specialized in command and control functions of spacebases and aboard starships. A silver star represents the operations division, which is the corps of officers and crewmen that specialize in security and engineering of bases and starships. A bronze star represents the science division, which is the corps of officers and crewmen that specialize in science and medicine, which of course, on spacebases and starships.

The lower-half of the star represents a rank. If it is empty, then the person is a cadet or recruit that is still training. An ensign, similar to a private, has the lower-half being white. Red is for lieutenant junior grade followed by yellow for lieutenant. Blue is for lieutenant commander, orange is for commander, green for captain, purple for fleet captain and black for commodore. Grey is for rear admiral with bronze for vice admiral. The color for admiral is silver with the fleet admiral being gold.

### Confederate Army

The Confederate Army is a combination of army, mechanized battalions, air force, defense militias and special operations that handle planetary operations alongside the Navy. Unlike the Navy, the square is black in color. It is comprised of various species that use a wide array of firearms, magical weaponry, vehicles, abilities and magic spells in their arsenal that would confuse most enemies with many carrying their own choice of weapons. It may appear disorganized, but there is strategy in the madness. Similar to the Confederate Navy, they have four-pointed star badges on their uniforms with the stars divided in half. As such, the color of the upper star represents a certain division.

An iron star represents the main armed forces, which is the infantry, but a copper star represents defense of a planet or colony. A bronze star represents pilots and drivers and crews of various vehicles and mechs. A silver star represents the air force division that have pilots and crew drive aircraft as well as coordinate aerial drones. Gold stars are those that serve as medics and doctors as well as healers. Special operation officers have more of a black star to them as well as scouts. Lead stars are for those that specialize in magic and magical properties and objects, though it can be hard to differentiate between those that use magic as a profession or those that use magic in other divisions. Aluminum are for those with psychic powers, but like the lead ranking for magic, it can be hard to differentiate. Platinum is reserved for high ranking officers such as colonels, brigadiers and generals with a smaller star to represent what division they were from.

The lower half of the star also shows rank that is rather similar to Halo multiplayer ranks. An empty slot means a recruit who is still in training. Apprentice level soldiers are given half a white star as they've finished training. A white lower half is for privates, red is for corporals, blue is for sergeants and yellow is for gunnery sergeants. Orange is for lieutenants, green is for warrant officers and purple is for captains. Black are for majors while grey is for commanders. Lieutenant colonels have orange while colonel has green. Brigadiers have a purple half with major generals having copper, lieutenant generals having silver and generals have gold. Field marshals are recognized by having a full platinum star. Lance corporals have a sky blue half while staff sergeants have a dark green half. Commanding generals have two platinum stars with High generals having three. High generals are the highest rank.

Special operations don't have the multicolored lower halves like the others. They have smaller black four-pointed stars under the upper half. Once someone made it to captain, those stars are replaced with a black skull. When they reach brigadier, the skulls are replaced with black skulls with twin lightning bolts. High generals of special operations have their badge replaced with a black skull with twin sniper rifles.

### Exploratory Corps.

The Exploratory Corps. are a special branch in the military that are more for, as their name suggest, exploring the unknown. They are sent out to recon, explore and colonize planets. They are basically similar to Starfleet but focus more on scientific, space exploratory and diplomatic missions rather than defense. The only time when they do defense is when there is some form of infection from the planet that is similar to a zombie virus or Necromorph bacteria. The crew of the Exploratory Corps. send in various drones to test the waters, the bacteria and soil to make sure the planet is safe for colonization. Massive scans are also done on the planet to check for resources in orbit as well as suitable locations to set up the colony. Once colonization is set up, many scientists do research on the native wildlife and flora to see what can be used as livestock or crops, what animal or plant should be avoided, etc.

Unlike the Confederate Army and the Confederate Navy that have square background badges, they have circles. They have a four-pointed star on them, but they don't use the color codes but instead use stripes on the edges. No stripes means that the member is a recruit that is still in training. One stripe for private, two for corporate, three for specialist, four for sergeants and five for lieutenant. A chevron below is for warrant officers followed by one stripe for captain, two for major, three for lieutenant major, four for commander, five for colonel. Two chevrons are for brigadiers while three chevrons are for generals. There are also special ranks that can be seen circling the badge such as a one five-pointed star meaning operatives that are out on the field or doing experiments, two for detectives and security forces that investigate internal affairs, and three stars for administrators.

The coloration of their badge is also important for each color represents certain divisions. Green represents surveyors and explorers that scout out many areas of the colonized planet along with collecting samples which this division is known as, the Pathfinder Division. They are also responsible for looking for crops to grow that is safe to consume or water for the colony. Red represents medics and the research in pharmaceuticals and medicine as well as act as mediators that aim to resolve problems with colonists which this division is called, the Medical & Mediator Division. Blue are for researching minerals, artifacts, fossils, plants, animals and whatever else the Pathfinder Division found that they experiment and research on, which the division is known as, the Research Division. Those that conduct mining operations, farming, energy collecting and conducting experiments wear a more yellow color to them which this division is known as, the Prospector & Outfitter Division. The Security Division has the color orange that not only ensure the safety of the colonist as well as working along side security along with developing weapons.
