[QUOTE]Originally posted by Daryus Aden: [QB] Anyway, here is my take: Top Level - Federation President & Council. The President is voted in by the council, which is made up of representatives from colonies, member worlds and other interest groups. The President is voted in by the council, which is made up of representatives from colonies, member worlds and other interest groups. The council has power over Federation wide decisions and makes and implements policy based upon requirement. Second Strata: Planetary Governments. As said by the holodoctor the Federation is an alliance of planets that works together in all respects for their mutual benefit. Therefore it is logical to conclude that each planet has it's own government and ambassadors from those planets are part of the Federation Council. Each planet must adhere to certain humanitarian, rules etc but apart from that it can run it's culture along it's own lines. This also goes for colonies. Here's where it gets interesting. Do the colonies of any given race get council representation seats or are they spoken for by the homeworld? For example, if earth has 50 colonies do they come under the jurisdiction of Earth, not the Fed council? In addition to this, if a group of 3 billion humans moved to a new planet that does not necessarily mean that planet would automatically become a member state of the Federation (if they succeeded from the earthgov). They would have to pass the required tests to join and get their own seats on the council and their own government recognized. (A theory). Starfleet comes in as the military force of the Federation, though each planet is responsible for internal security, and their own ground forces.(Or so it may be, we just don't know). Each planet must also contribute to starfleet with technology, resources, manpower etc etc. (As ground troops, or anything else). For my take the parts of starfleet we have seen are those run by humans. We know that there are entire sections of starfleet that don't have humans. Mixed race ships etc aren't necessarily the norm. Third Strata: Regional Planetary Governments and Colonies are run via the system of the homeworld, whatever that may be [/QB][/QUOTE]
