"I hereby declare the United Federation of Earth and Her Colonies duly legal and proper in the eyes of our laws and common interests. Ladies and Gentlement, Citizens of Earth - I formally declare world peace is at hand, may we and the generations that come after us keep this peace as we turn our eyes to the stars."

- President Mohammid Il Azerra, Coalition of Middle Eastern States.

The United Federation of Earth and Her Colonies, often shortened to United Federation of Earth or the United Federation, is the offical singular banner that covers the human species, their homeworld Earth and their colonies throughout the Orion Spur of the Milky Way Galaxy. The United Federation is characterised by its federalist policies of a union of partially self-governing colonies head by a strong central civilian government and defended by the United Nations Space Command.

Unified Earth Government
The Unified Earth Government, also known as the UEG, is the central civilian government that governs Earth, her colonies and humans. It is bicameral in nature

Colonial Administration Authority
The Colonial Administration Authority, also known as the CAA, is a department of the UEG partially adminsters Earths colonies along with each colonies government.

United Nations Space Command
The United Nations Space Command, also known as the UNSC, is the UEG's primary defence force. The UNSC Defence Force draws its recruits from volunteers from every colony to protect the United Federation's interests, colonies and citizens from enemies foreign or domestic.

Independent Colonies
Despite promoting unity and the benefit of remaining in the United Federation, there are some who desparately want independence. In an age of almost unlimited space, few have taken upon themselves to colonise an unknown planet outside the UEG's sphere of influence; by 2800, there were twenty eight independent colonies. There are reportedly more than this but many are pirate bases, which are deemed illegal.
