United Corporation

The United Corporation, simply known as the Corporation by its inhabitants, was the government and separatist movement formed by various planetary and sectorial governments, as well as some comercial entities, that declared their intentions to stop providing Coruscant with their help, refusing to comply with its excessive taxation and corruption during its isolation crisis.

Founding
In the decades prior to the establishment of the Corporation, Coruscant was seen by many as a failing government, plagued by corruption and mindless bureaucracy that stifled the voices of many constituents represented in the Senate. Secession grew during this period and some commercial entities and corporations became disillusioned with the Senate after the law was passed to place taxation on all trade routes to outlying star systems. Into this critical situation stepped Riose Vizla, a Quermian Senator who had become disillusioned with how Coruscant was treating his homeworld of Quermia. This charismatic figure stirred up nationalist sentiments on many worlds, paving the way to build a new government that began as a mutual protection and economic alliance among worlds in the Outer Rim.

Government and politics
The United Corporation was led by a President and a High Council that consisted of Senators, members of the military and governmental leadership.

Economy
At the heart of this government's economy was planetary trade. Interplanetary trade could support a local economy, but, in many cases, the high levels of economic interaction and the massive scale of exchange required for an advanced society could only be funded by interplanetary exports. While some planets maintained their own shipping fleets, most relied on large freight firms to carry their goods along major hyperlanes.

Society and culture
This government had a very diverse culture. Member worlds were able to maintain their own culture in accordance with local beliefs, customs, and traditions. There was a wide variety of different cultures within it: from religious communities to hive-like communes. This government had a liberal policy towards arts also. The dominant aesthetic style was opulence and ornamentation.

Military
Consisting of predominantly an Army and a Navy, the United Corporation military was responsible for carrying out operations throughout the galaxy, as well as maintaining order on this governments member worlds.
