The Union of Accord Colonies is a federation of 8 human colony worlds that gained a sovereign status as a full member state of the Yatan-Theian Accord following the Act of Confederation being passed by the Accord's Senates, granting the Union its modern status. The Union is one of the wealthiest and most connected areas within the entirety of Accord Space due to its proximity to the Alpha Sol System and trade connections with numerous interstellar states.
Member Planets
As of 453 the Union of Accord Colonies is composed of 8 "Authorities", which are autonomous planetary governments which together form the Colonial Congress and Union Council, the two leading bodies of the Union. The current member Authorities (in order of joining) are as follows:
Government
While in its first few decades of existence the Union was fairly authoritarian, this has since changed in a series of reformations in 355 which lead to the formation of a democratic government on each Member Authority, granting all of them their own head of state, the "Premier". Together all 7 of these premiers form the Union Council which acts as the collective leadership of the entire Union. When it comes to the legislative branch each Member Authority has its own "Planetary Assembly", which governs more local issues while the entire Union's unified legislature elected at the same time is the Colonial Congress. Each part of the government meets at the Governance District in Hope City on Skurial, the most populated member authority mainly due to its status as the closest to the Alpha Sol System.
Demographics
A majority of the Union's population is descended from former colonists from the initial Ark-Ships that lead the settlement of planets. Thus most of the population is from the recruitment areas in Sizzle, Nilastan, Tritonia, Sipedro and Nakmai. These also are the most common languages, although Russian usually acts as a lingua franca.
