World Government[edit]

Hsivyu is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.

Demographics[edit]

60,000,000 Vegans.

The Vegan species, named as such by the Solomani for their proximity to the star Vega, are more properly called the Tyui, though they accept the Human label.

World Culture[edit]

The Vegan population belong to multiple tuhuir, equivalent to nations, philosophies, or structured belief systems.
