The people of the Federation of Ades are the remains of those who stayed on Earth during the Earth Regeneration Plan and did not flee the Earth in an Exile. Their capital city is Morvarid, which lies in the middle of a vast desert. The government of the Federation of Ades is ruled by a single head of state with a group of viceroys and advisers. The head of state is called Augusta or Augustus, depending on the gender. Like many empires, such as the Holy Roman Empire, and the Roman Empire, had many countries within the influence of the empire that were somewhat self-governing.
