Mainworld Data
In 490, the Hiver capital was moved from Guaran to Glea. Glea itself was settled by Hivers in -866. Glea has a population of 670 million, of which about half are Hivers; the other half is composed of members of non-Hiver races of the Federation. Non-Hiver population on Glea parallels the proportions of non-Hiver population within the Federation itself. 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. There is no formal world government, however, and all governmental activities are in the hands of the local nests. Non-Hivers either maintain local organizations similar to nests, or are under the control of Hiver nests.

World Government (G)
Glea has no central government for the world, an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. 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.
