United Goladel Confederation

The United Confederation of Goladian Worlds, known in shorthand as the United Confederation of Worlds or just the Confederation, is a loosely confederated league of planets in the Goladel star system, ruled by an appointed Chancellor and a unicameral legislature from its capital city of Jenavium on Galneryus.

The Confederation emerged from the colonies established in the Goladel System by the Ammerinian Empire, to which it considers itself the successor after the Empire's demise in the Great Cataclysm of the Old Calendar year 2084 and the following interplanetary civil war. When the conflict was finally brought to an end by the Fall of Jenavium, an alliance formed between the survivors in order to mend the human-alien divide and facilitate unity among the Goladel System's inhabitants. In practice, however, the Confederation's authority is nominal beyond Galneryus itself, Rairene, the moons thereof, and a handful of paltry settlements on Lakustria.

Pre-war
In Old Calendar year of 2073 (32 BFJ), the Goladel star system first became known to The Empire of Ammerinia after a team led by Captain Jendius Talius traveled through an ancient spacetime-bridging gateway on the planet Eridanus V and emerged atop an island on the world that would later be designated as New Galador. Before returning back through the portal, a long-range subspace transmitter beacon was carefully activated and left behind by Talius for the purpose of pinpointing the planet's location for future colonization efforts.

Conflict begins
Initially, then-Imperial Governor-General of the New Galador colony, Gulmora Gehenna, declared total martial law and assumed dictatorial control in a bid to "restore order" to the entire system. Armed insurrection against the oppressive control quickly broke out on the neighboring planets of Lakustria and Rairene (then New Ducatia), sparking a civil war that would rage sporadically for the following 20 years until the legendary Fall of New Galador (which marks the Year Zero of the Goladium Calendar). A provisional agreement among the survivors of the conflict as well as the other inhabitants of the system would give birth to the Confederation.
