World-State

A World-State is a polity that functions as a single power bloc on the interstellar stages of diplomacy and trade.

• It is an astronavigational term.
• It may have a unified world government or be a balkanized collection of nation-states or other political groupings.

Description (Specifications)

Obviously there is a large continuum of government types and functionalities for a world-state. The more effective world-states form unified policies for planetary and extraplanetary relations.

Typically unified policy necessitates a unified government, but some sophont species such as the Hivers are able to achieve unified policy without a conventional government. Hivers are near unique amongst the major races of Charted Space in this regard.
