The Confederation of Planets Universe — Gail Daley

Welcome to the Far Future where the will to survive is mankind's greatest weapon. The Confederation of Planets is a loose association of human and humanoid planets bound together by treaties that regulate shipping, protect planetary independence and enforce mutually agreed upon laws. The Confederation is by no means the first association of worlds to rule known space. There is evidence on all the planets that many other civilizations have existed and passed on. At the time this was written, the Confederation had just finished an interplanetary war with the Karamine Coalition, it's chief rival to control civilized space.
