The Sirius Coalition is the modern-day successor to the original Coalition of Sol. The Sirius Coalition is populated by the descendants of Coalition saboteurs hidden aboard the original five sleeper ships, as well as by more recent defectors from the Alliance nations. The Sirius Coalition is dedicated to the same Communist values as it's predecessor, and carries on the war against the Alliance to this day. As a result, the sole contact that most Sirians have with Coalition citizens are members of the Coalition's military, the Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army.
History
Controlled and contested space
The Sirius Coalition controls the entirety of the Omega-52 system. Within this system, they maintain two inhabited planets, Volgograd and Jiangxi. The Coalition's capital city is located on Planet Volgograd. Despite attempts to expand out of Omega-52, the Coalition is frustrated by powerful enemies on every side. Even so, the Coalition is in no danger of losing the space it has.
Government and politics
The Sirius Coalition is a federal socialist republic, under the control of the Communist Party of the Coalition. No other parties are permitted to operate in the Coalition.
The Coalition's legislature is the State Duma of the Coalition which is composed of delegates elected by the citizens of the Coalition. The State Duma is responsible for drafting new laws, and has the power to pass constitutional amendments. In addition it also elects the members of the Council of the People's Commissars, as well as the Supreme Court of the Coalition. Finally, the State Duma appoints the Procurator General of the Coalition.
The Coalition's executive functions are executed through the Council of the People's Commissars, which is led by the Premier of the Coalition. Typically the Premier also holds the title of General Secretary of the Communist Party, though this is not always the case. The Council of the People's Commissars is responsible for executing the laws passed by the State Duma. It may also dissolve the Duma and call for a new election should the body no longer be able to function adequately, such as in regular deadlocks on many votes.
Finally, the Judicial arm of the Coalition at the national level is the Supreme Court of the Coalition. It is responsible for supervising both civilian and military courts, as well as for hearing cases of national importance. Also at the upper levels of the Coalition's judicial system is the Procurator General of the Coalition. The Procurator General is the highest prosecutor in the nation, and is responsible for overseeing the investigation and prosecution of criminal cases through a series of subordinate Public Procurators.
Economy
The economy of the Coalition is a centrally planned command economy, with all economic resources under public ownership. The economy is managed by the State Planning Committee through the use of five-year plans. Unemployment is nonexistent within the Coalition, with all of it's citizens employed in some capacity.
Diplomacy
Crime and dissent
Organized crime within Coalition space is practically unheard of, due to the Coalition government's low tolerance of criminal behavior. Criminal activity is generally limited to petty crime and political agitators encouraged by the larger houses. Neither category is widespread and both are crushed by the Militsiya before they're allowed to create any serious problems. Crime is simply not an issue that troubles the average Coalition citizen.
