## The Four Principal Organs

### (CSC) Concord Security Council

The Concord Security Council (CSC) is one of the four principal organs of the Concord, charged with the maintenance of galactic peace and security as well as accepting new members to the Galactic Concord and approving any changes to its Concord Charter. Its powers include the establishment of peacekeeping operations, the establishment of international sanctions, and the authorization of military action through Security Council resolutions; it is the only GC body with the authority to issue binding resolutions to member states. Every member of the (SCS) has a veto, even if it is accused of violating certain concord charter rules. The Security Council held its first session on 05-05-2222 a.CT.

#### Members of the (CSC)

* -Oxan Technocracy-
* -Aquarian Star Church-
* -Thaan Hegemony-
* -United Raxar Imperium-

### (GCT) Galactic Criminal Tribunal

This is a court, where the defense goes from accused himself and the charge is represented by the victim himself. The judges are three tribunes who are not allowed to be members of the (GPK). Charges may be brought against any member state that in any way disregards the concord charter rules. But the (CSC) members also have a veto right here.

### (GPK) Galactic Peace Keepers

These members of the galactic community, have the mission to go for peace-keeping wars. This does mean they are going to initiate a Legal war. Peacekeeping helps countries navigate the difficult path from conflict to peace. They have unique strengths, including legitimacy, burden sharing, and an ability to deploy troops and police from around the galaxy, integrating them with civilian peacekeepers to address a range of mandates set by the Security Council and **Full Membership Assembly**.

It always depends on which resolution was granted. What measures will be taken and who will implement them, or who will intervene in a conflict. When a conflict breaks out, a resulution is usually given, and a full member or an associated member volunteers for these missions. But in most cases there are no volunteers, then the concord federation fleet can still be sent out for the mission. Depending on the respective resolutions, it may also happen that one or more CSC members have to intervene.

### (FMA) Full Membership Assembly

Voting in the (FMA) on certain important questions, namely, recommendations on peace and security, budgetary concerns, and the election, admission, suspension or expulsion of members is by a simple majority of those present and voting. Other questions are decided by a straightforward majority. Each member country has one vote.As well The Federation of Galactic Concord must always vote before it can declare war, and must vote unanimously.

## Galactic Date

The Galactic Date is important for interstellar coordination in history, politics, economics, and all kind of sciences. For this reason, the galactic community has taken on a common date.

### Galactic Calendar

The **Galactic Fixed Calendar** also known as the "*CT*" (*Concord Time*) has 12 months with 30 days and no weeks. The year Zero or (*Null*) is the year when the **Federation** has been formed.

#### Therminology

* The year "**b.CT**" does mean (*before Concord Time*) it's the time before the federation had formed.
* The year "**a.CT**" does mean (*after Concord Time*) it's the time after the federation had formed.
