Formed in the year 3981, UEF Calendar, after the War of the Masters, the Combined Star Alliance was designed to protect all star nations from the threat of the Masters.
Founded by the Se-combeian Empire, the United Earth Federation, and the Protectorate of Guardians, the CSA is a Federal Republic that believes in bettering the life of all members. The CSA is run by the Alliance Council, with one Councilor from each member, regardless of standing. Every Councilor is one equal footing, with each vote having the same weight as another. Certain benefits are extended to each member, though they vary based on standing. The Council does not govern individual member worlds. member worlds maintain their own governments, which are free from Council influence, with some reasonable exceptions. The Council passes laws that every member world of the CSA must follow. As long as the member worlds's individual laws do not conflict with the CSA laws, they are free to do as they wish. The Council highly encourages equal trade and individual rights.
The CSA Military protects CSA interests, but is not a force of conquering. The Military is comprised Joint Fleets, which consist of vessels and people from every member world, under the command of a CSA Officer. Joint Fleet Commanders are appointed by a 2/3 majority vote by the Council, and take orders directly from the Council. Joint Fleet vessels and assigned crew/troops are held exempt from their oaths to their homeworld and are expected to put the welfare of the CSA before the welfare of their homeworld. Vessels and crew/troops are hand selected for assignment to a Joint Fleet, via nominations from their member world's government. As of now, there are only two complete Joint Fleets, with a third 3/4 of the way to completion. People assigned to a Joint Fleet hold two ranks: Their member world military rank, and an Alliance military rank, with the Alliance rank taking precedence. This allows for members and vessels to be returned to their members with little hassle. All vessels assigned to Joint Fleets are re-flagged as ACS (Alliance Capital Ship) until their tour is done. Due to the similarities in ranks between various member navies, the rank of High Admiral was created for Joint Fleet Commanders
When the Joint Fleet idea was first designed, the Council not only approved wholeheartedly, they selected it's designer, Admiral of the Center, Prince Nocam Michael Davis, the Godslayer, of the Se-combeian Empire, as its Commanding Officer. This marks the only time a High Admiral was ever selected with a unanimous vote.
