Ruvin is governed by a Corporate Polity with a single corporation with a typical corporate structure as a government. A company town, or world.

But rather than a simple base of operations, there are facilities for housing workers and their families including hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure. How, or if, the children of the workers are incorporated into the workforce varies with companies. The corporation running the world may be a subsidiary of a larger interstellar corporation.

For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.
