| - A confederation or confederacy is a form of government organization, usually consisting of smaller polities that are combined in an organization that reflects an overall racial, national, locational and/or economic commonality, but with considerable autonomy from the central government.
- A Confederation is a form of government. A Confederation has a common currency.
- A confederation is an association of sovereign member states, that by treaty have delegated certain of their competences to common institutions, in order to coordinate their policies in a number of areas, without however constituting a new state on top of the member states. Under international law, a confederation respects the sovereignty of its members and its constituting treaty can only be changed by unanimous agreement among all member nations. A confederation in modern political terms is a permanent union of sovereign states for common action in relation to other states. Usually created by treaty but often later adopting a common constitution, confederations tend to be established for dealing with critical issues such as defense, foreign affairs, or a common currency, with the central government being required to provide support for all member nations. The nature of the relationship among the states constituting a confederation varies considerably. Likewise, the relationship between the member states and the central government, and the distribution of powers among them, is highly variable. Some looser confederations are similar to intergovernmental organizations, while tighter confederations may resemble federations.
- The Confederation is the name given to the alliance of 862 solar systems which have been settled by humans. As the name suggests, the Confederation is a loose alliance with almost as many types of government as there are planets.
- Since its inception, the Confederation has spread humanity to the edges of known space, colonizing or conquering worlds to ensure that mankind spreads to the far corners of space. The first Civil war in the Confederation fifty years ago resulted in the creation of many small, splinter factions, and the instability of this time period allowed the Talosians to rise in power and etch out their own claims in known space, known as the Talesian Star Republic. The Tariez war re-unified these smaller factions back into the Confederation to fight off a larger common threat. A grand alliance was formed with the now formidable Talosian Republic; each faction respecting their own claims on space and putting aside their differences to fight off a common threat. Following the Great War, the grand alliance between the Confederation and the Talosian Republic fell apart, and ushered in an era of Cold War between the two empires. In addition, the president of the Confederation, Jeremy Bright started to seize power within the confederation Senate. Ten years after the Tariez war, leading up to recent events; Jeremy Bright was declared Emporer of the new Empire of Terra, and the Confederation was disbanded. Over the next few months, the new Empire proceeded to exile all non human or recom citizens from Earth. This included all AIs as well as alien species residing on the core worlds of the former confederation, such as Talosians and even Selvens. This act did not go over well with the Selvens and the smaller factions that had been reabsorbed into the Confederation, now Empire, after the last Civil War. Arua and many of the outerworlds and colonies of the former Confederation broke off seceded and broke off from the Empire of Terra, forming a new Confederation under the Articles of the Confederation, once again splitting the realm of humanity into two factions, and plunging into civil war. With the Emporer removed from power, the Empire has been disolved and the Confederation parliment has been restored. The seat of the confederation moved back to Earth; but Arua still remains a powerful ally in the reconstruction of the Terran Confederation. Seat or Government center: Earth, Sol system Controlled Regions of space: Sol, Arua and all Terran colonies that ally their loyalty to the Confederation. The Confederation remains the most wide-spread faction in Neospace, though only the worlds close to Earth and Arua remain under the direct control and guidance of the Confederation goverment and military.
- Confederation is a group of nations that come together for a common goal, like being part of an alliance. There are very few alliances in CN that operate as a confederacy. The Triple Entente was one alliance in CN that operated as a confederacy. A confederacy is a loose union of nations. Unlike the superpower alliances such as NPO and Sparta where the alliance is the highest governing body, in a confederacy each individual nation is the highest governing body, the alliance is just like a meeting place where people can discuss the issues. In a confederation the alliance acts sort of like the European Union, while in other alliances the alliance acts more like the Warsaw Pact where nations did what they were told. In a confederation the alliance still hold the power to hand out verdicts but it is done democratically through voting, nation doesn't like it they hold the power to leave peacefully.
* In politics, A confederation is the political philosophy that underlies a system of government in which sovereignty is constitutionally divided between a central governing authority and constituent political units (like states or provinces), creating what is often called a Confederation. Supporters of a confederation are often die-hard critics of the federalist system and so they have been deemed Anti-Federalist. . In Canada and Europe, "federalist" is often used to describe those who favor a stronger federal government (or European Union government) and weaker provincial governments. The same is historically true in the United States, with those who generally favor a confederation, or weaker federal government and stronger state governments, being called "anti-federalists". However, in recent years in America "federalism" has come to mean something closer to confederacy. Confederations in history have been extremely successful when they are geven the proper powers to govern while still remaining a confederacy. Some of the great confederacies in history include: Iroquois Confederacy (1090–present) European Union United States of America under the Articles of Confederation (1781–1789) Argentine Confederation, 1830-1861 Confederate States of America, (1861–1865)
- The Confederation, also known as the Confederate States and Confederates, is a splinter faction of the Allies, consisting of the southern US states. According to the 2013 Revision, the Confederates border the Latin Confederation (with which they share nothing but the name) and the Vampire Kingdoms to the south, and the Union to the north.
- In general, three types of global government structures, short of a unified world state, are possible: alliance, confederation and federation. A government of limited powers, formed by two or more nations, generally dependent on member nations for financial support and enforcement of its decisions. The central deliberative body is composed of representatives of the national governments. In forming the Confederation, nations may bind themselves to follow the decisions of the central body in whatever limited powers they have delegated to that body. But without direct means of enforcement and taxing power, the Confederation is usually ineffective unless at least the more powerful member nations decide to assist it. Many modifications of confederate organization are possible, some of them bordering closely on federal structure. In general, however, whenever the preponderance of authority and means of enforcement in matters supposedly delegated to the supranational organization is in reality retained by the nations, especially by the more powerful ones, the organization remains confederate rather than federal in character. A confederation may arise if an alliance develops permanent policymaking and administrative organs. The basic purpose of the confederation is to marshal preponderant strength in case of aggression by a member or a non-member nation. The military forces are organized either from contributions of armed forces of the member nations, or the separate national armies are coordinated through periodic conferences of their general staffs. At this point, the weakness of the confederate structure burdened with the greatest responsibility of all -- the power to make war -- becomes most apparent. The confederation, dependent on its member nations both for military and financial support, is powerless to do more than criticize an act of aggression unless member governments declare war on the aggressor.
- Confederations are friendly pairings of alliances recognized by the game software. (Until early 2008 they were called "alliances", which was a little confusing.) A confederation is a stronger relationship than an NAP. Confederates are expected to render military assistance to each other for mutual defense or attacks. Given the limit of 60 players per alliance, alliances that want to support more than 60 players must create two or more in-game alliances (often with similar names). A confederation between the two "wings" (in-game alliances) signifies their partnership. A sufficiently large group of alliances working together is often called a "meta-alliance". Having a "confed" with another alliance is generally a good idea if the sides of each alliance wish to be perceived as more powerful. Also, simply having a connection to a larger alliance may stop people from farming and/or taking your villages when there are other, less well-connected players of whom they can take advantage (on the other hand, a confederation like this could make you appear strong enough to be a threat, which could have the opposite effect). If you wish to join a confederation, the easiest (and most polite) way to do so is to propose it to the alliance leader. Being discourteous or impolite is generally frowned on and could result in a refusal. When waiting for a reply it is a wise thing to stop messaging the alliance leader; spamming isn't a good idea. When unable to get a reply it is wisest to turn to another alliance. During the Endgame, many alliances will enter a meta alliance to have a better chance to successfully build a Wonder of the World. This makes it easier to have two World Wonder Plans within an alliance. The new meta-alliance will then have a better chance of completing a Wonder, and winning the game.
