==Organisation==
The Coalition is led by an official leadership board known as the Coalition Council. Headed by the Council President, the Council is a twelve-member board that make up the daily workings of the Coalition. The President is aided by the ministers, which are divided into several fields including: Trade, Healthcare, Education, Foreign Affairs, and Defence. The Council is chosen from the main assembly of the Coalition, the Coalition Assembly. This is a body of 50 people that are chosen each 4 years through an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_suffrage Universal Suffrage] election. The Council President is chosen as well during an election, however it is a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-round_system Two-Round System] and the President is choosen only after the second round. Both elections employ a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional_representation Proportional Representation] system. The Assembly votes on the laws passed by the Council and by any legislation put forward by their own. The [[Federation]] has a special Coalition Envoy installed in the Council to coordinate their laws with that of the Federation.
The Council and the Assembly meet in the Council Palace on [[Antor II]], although that planet's recent natural disaster has forced the legislature to relocate to the smaller Palace of Law on [[Ketar V]]. The Coalition has several different agencies installed to aid their organisation, including the [[Coalition Marshals Service]], the local law enforcement agency. The Boards of Communications & Navigation is in charge of mapping the continuing changing [[tetryon]] in the [[Shoals]], as well as maintenance on the [[Mother Road]], alongside [[Starfleet]]. The Office of Trade governs the daily supply needs for the colonies in the Coalition, and has several fleets of Supply runner vessels to distribute vital supplies across the [[Shoals]].
