Concordat

"'Its an idea... an ideology even. For a better tomorrow, one that is both strong and respects the reality of representation for all of us instead of just Earth, and its a hell of a lot better than killing eachother constantly.' ""'Sounds like space communism...' ""-Anonymous Barrow Guardsman explaining Concordat to a UNSC Soldier aboard a jointly operated station. "The Concordat was a political manifesto originating on the semi-autonomous, ambiguously inner-outer colony of Barrow. Similarly to the state of its conception the Concordat is a idea which seems to go against the typical slate of politics within Human Space in the uncharacteristically peaceful practice of diplomacy over outright war.

Overview
With the intention of outlining a future government for Humanity the Concordat addresses past, present, and foreseeable future problems Humanity currently faces and ways in which the Concordat solves them while asking for sacrifice from all along with offering long term stability and security which no former government had been seen to offer humanity.

Principally the Concordat involved the disestablishment of the UEG and restructuring of the UNSC to sway from Earth-Centralism towards Humanity-Communalism. With the UEG dissolved, its alleged wrongdoings would also need to be absolved in the eyes of the various splinter governments of Humanity. Without Earth as a capitol, leadership and authority would stem directly from the member colonies. Each colony would elect a colonial representative known as a Liaison. This Liaison would express and endorse the interests of the colony to the other Liaisons in the sector. Amongst this Council of Liaisons one would be elected every year to serve as Sectoral Liaison and join the ranks of the Concordat Senate which would similarly address and promote the interests of the sectors and work with one another to decide courses of action best fit for the Concordat at large.

From the Concordat Senate a single Prime Liaison would be elected to represent the Concordat at large in foreign relations. Beside the Concordat Senate would be the Court of Admirals, composed of the highest ranking of the various branches of military whom would elect a Concordat Commander to represent the military interests and concerns to the Concordat Senate and to the Prime Liaison personally serving alongside him however with no technical authority unless granted by the majority Senate.

History
The idea stemmed from the fundamental belief that Humanity needed reorganization of its governmental bodies. Corruption and abandonment coupled with terrorist governments rising from the aforementioned was undoubtedly leading Humanity to constant in-fighting or self-imposed extinction.

It wasn't until 2557 that Barrow formally named the ideology and its concepts began to spread gaining the most popularity among colonies whos populations were roughly even in distribution of those favoring the UEG and those favoring succession ideologies. Concordat proposed a third option which would address the issues of the existing governments along with restrain from forcing Humanity into continued war. Even some UEG political figures openly supported the proposition as a starting point to mending many internal issues.
