This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.

  • Cosmopolitan influences and a desire to have a non-Hiver world as the seat of government for the combined Hiver and non-Hiver populations of the Federation led to the transfer of the state's Capital to the world in 410.

The Federation maintains its major governmental apparatus on Glea: the Federation Development Agency, the Federation Navy, and the Embassy Directorate all have major installations on the world.
