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. In the case where the offices are held by two different people, the General Secretary of the Communist Party is considered to be the leader of the Coalition. 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 currently managed by a "New Economic Policy" that has seen a burst of growth and prosperity in the Omega-52 system.
Premier Katz's government implemented this economic policy to prevent the Coalition economy from collapsing. Allowing some private ventures, the NEP allows small businesses or shops, for instance, to reopen for private profit while the state continues to control banks, foreign trade, and large industries.
The New Economic Policy (NEP) replaced the policies of War Communism which attempted to obliterate any signs of the market economy in the Coalition. War Communism’s policies hadn´t been too kind to the Coalition's economy and thus, was in dire need of some new kind of reform, whether political or economic. This manifested in the opening of Omega-52 to outside trade in the form of TAZ and IND vessels being granted specific permission to trade inside the system under the watchful eye of the economic ministry.
One direct benefit of the system was the planet JaingXi that saw a rush of development and growth, as well as a large scale immigration from war torn sections of Bretonia. This, in turn, has brought a great deal of opportunity and prosperity to the Coalition, and is touted as a great success by the Government.
The NEP succeeded in creating an economic recovery after the devastating effects of the Phantom attack on JaingXi, and the Coalition continues to support its efforts, despite some critics accusing it of being a strategic retreat from the spirit of true communism.
There is some concern among more conservative members of the Communist Party that the NEP is a step backwards away from the ideal of a true Communist state, as such, there is a push to replace the Policy with a heavily controlled Centrally Planned Economic System.

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 agitation 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.
