The People's Unified Federation is the short/common name for the The People's Unified Federation of Mokastana, Wellovia, Aqua Anu and Associated States, a large Federation made up of multiple nations both in Greater Dienstad and abroad. It is also commonly abbreviated as PUF and informally referred to as The Federation.
Founded in 2005, The People's Unified Federation is one of the youngest governments in Greater Dienstad. Originally formed between the three Nations of Mokastana after the collapse of the Mokan Confederacy, this new government was originally called The People's Unified Federation of Mokastana which was often shortened to Mokastana. However, since the nation has added numerous new nations since its inception, referring to the nation simply as 'Mokastana' is no longer correct, despite the same government remaining in power.

Branches of The Federal Government
Duel Executive
The Executive power of Mokastana is split into two halves, the Security Council and the Heads of State Council. Both halves have the power to veto any recommendation or approval by the other. The Security Council consists of the Heads of Military and President of the Federation plus Cabinet. The Emergency Council is the leaders of the member Nations. Though not written into law, traditionally the Heads of State Council has precedence over domestic issues and Security Council has precedence over International issues.
Security Council
Members of the Security Council include:
---The President of the Federation: Selected by the People in an election
---The Minister for Domestic Economics: Appointed by the President of the Federation
---The Minister of Foreign Affairs: Appointed by the President of the Federation
---Director of the Bureau of Secret Affairs: Appointed by the President of the Federation
---Generalissimo Major of the People's Federal Army: Selected by Army
---Primary Admiral of the People's Federal Navy: Selected by Navy
---Air Marshall of the People' Unified Air Force: Selected by Air Force
-- Space Marshall of the Federal Space Flotilla: Selected by Space Corps
This Council is led by the President of the Federation(POTF), who has the legal authority to appoint Ministers, issue executive orders, issue military orders in case of emergency, and negotiate international treaties. Elections for the President of the Federation occur every five years and legally can serve two consecutive terms.
Heads of State Council
---Speaker of the People (Head of Federal Parliament): Elected by Parliament
---Presiding Senator (Head of the Senate): Elected by Senate
---President of The People's Republic of the Islands: Elected directly by citizens
---Presider of The Congress of Cozhuactl: Elected by Main Parliament body of Cozhuactl
---President of The Republic of Suria del Gran Mokastana: Elected directly by citizens
---Prime Minister of The Parliamentary Republic of Wellovia: Elected by Parliament
---Queen of the Constitutional Queendom of Aqua Anu and Catan: Not Elected
---President of The Republic of Belmotin: Elected directly by people
---President of The Republic of Paradisa: Elected directly by people
---The Minister for Domestic Economics(OBSERVER)
---The Minister of Foreign Affairs(OBSERVER)
The Heads of State Council does not have a central leader per se, but certain leaders have taken a leadership role historically. Duties of the Heads of State Council include: Ratify international treaties made by the President, veto executive orders issued by the President, and veto laws put into place by the Legislative Branch. Each with a simple majority vote. More recently, it was made clear that the Heads of State Council is also required to ratify a vote of no confidence of the President of the Federation and appoint new acting POTF.
Duel Legislature
Federal Parliament
Seats are determined by population of each member state, split between the member Nations and colonial territory for a total of 300 seats. The seats assigned to a member nation may be divided up according to the wishes of that member, with Federal oversight to prevent gerrymandering. Elections occur every two years, with a third up for election ever cycle. Terms are six years and Parliamentarians can serve indefinitely. Parliament meets biannually. Every 5 years the Heads of State Council may revise how many seats each Member will have, based on census.
Parliament is the only part of the government that can create new laws, and must ratify new departments made by POTF. They also have the power to overturn an Executive Branch Veto with a two thirds vote if the Senate agrees. More recently, they also demonstrated they have the power to vote to reject a replacement POTF choice by the Heads of States Council
As of now, Parliament's seats are assigned as follows:
Islands: 19
Cozhuactl: 57
Tatom: 00
El Sur: 25
Wellovia: 58
Aqua Anu: 86
Paradisa: 12
Belmotin: 13
Zather: 5
Lenton Island: 2
Isla Alma: 21
Malverde Island: 1
Federal Senate
The Federal Senate is made up of 240 total seats with 25 seats given to each nation and 10 to each Colonial Territory. How each nation decides to vote on their Senators is left up to them, but all methods must be approved of the current Senate Electoral Committee. Typically they are divided into regional or city-state areas, allowing each local area to have a senator who lives close by in the Federal Government. Elections occur every year, with roughly 25% and the seats up for election in any year. Senate meets biannually and Senators serve for four years, and can serve four terms.
Although the Federal government is complex, the Senate is considered the central branch. Unlike other branches, it is the only the Senate who can vote to accept new member Nations and issue a declaration of war. While Parliament has the power to create laws, they must be ratified by the Senate to become law. They must also agree with Parliament to overturn a veto by the Executive branch. In addition, it is the Senate who can vote to remove a POTF from power, and is required to vote in favor to instate the selected replacement.
240 Total Seats:
The Islands: 25
Cozhuactl: 25
Tatom: 25
El Sur: 25
Wellovia: 25
Aqua Anu: 25
Paradisa: 25
Belmotin: 25
Zather: 10
Lenton Island: 10
Isla Alma: 10
Malverde Island: 10
Supreme Federal Court
The Federal Supreme Court is a unique branch, in that it is not elected, nor do they make laws. The Federal Supreme Court is made up of 11 judges, with three seats appointed by the President of the Federation, five appointed by the Heads of States Council, and three seats appointed by special Senate Committee. These judges oversee Federal Laws, and can outright turn down Executive Orders issued by POTF by majority vote. They also can hear Federal Cases and make rulings, acting to interpret the Federal Laws issued by the Legislative Branch.
Judges serve a term of ten years, with six or five seats appointed every five years. Judges can serve indefinite terms of continuously appointed.
Departments of Federal Government
Department of Space Exploration(DEE)
Departamento de Exploración Espacial
With the birth of Space flight the Federal Government formed the Department of Space Exploration to begin operations in space . Though no Mokan Cosmonaunt has formally landed on another surface, the DEE is currently working closely with numerous allied nations to create space travel capabilities and continue research into space.
Department for Disease Control(DCE)
Departamento para Control de Enfermedades
The DCE is a relatively new department, founded in 2014, designed for the control and prevention of pathogens and diseases. Originally this was handled by the MBSA-Bio Division, but it was determined to be more efficient to have a specialized Civilian Department to track domestic pathogens and coordinate efforts with other governments.
National Police
La Policìa Nacional
The National Police was the first Federal level law enforcement agency to be established across Mokastana. However, at it's founding it was only in El Sur of the Mokan Confederacy and its main concern was dealing with the local Bolivian rebels. At its founding, the President of Sur, Maria Montana teamed up with her brother, Antonio Montana, CEO of Montana Inc, to fund it. This created the first government agency funded by private corporations. During the Confederate years it was expanded to have jurisdiction over all of Mokastana. After Maria Montana was arrested, the National Police was nationalized by the Confederation. It was then Federalised at the Founding of the PUF.
Today, the National Police act as a domestic military/police force handling militias, separatists and terrorists. There forces are often used by other agencies when a show of force is required. However, it is only present in Mokan Nations.
National Investigation Bureau(DIN)
El Departmento de Investigaciòn Nacional
The First Post-PUF police organization, the DIN has jurisdiction across the entire Federation. Investigating everything from serial killers to domestic espionage, the DIN has some of the best special forces and elite squads in the Federation. The reason for this is that most weapons, up to the RPG-7, is legal to own under the People's Army Act. Most crime that crosses borders between Federal or National borders fall under DIN jurisdiction, minus drug related crime. All Controlled Substances fall under the DFSC.
Department of Pharmacy and Controlled Substances(DFSC)
Departamento de Farmacia y Sustancias Controladas
In late 2013, as President Henry Milano started his anti drug campaign, the DFSC was created to ensure all drug related crime and medicinal exports were handled as required by law. Because many legitimate pharmaceutical companies were illegally exporting on the side, the Department was born by combining the Department of Health's Pharmaceutical branch and the Department of Drug Control. The DFSC has jurisdiction over medicinal and recreational drugs and related crime: regardless of status as an export, import or domestic.
Aerospace Defense Command (CODA)
Comando de Defensa Aeroespacial
Formerly known as the Mokan Pacific Aerospace Defense Command(MOPAD), CODA is in charge of The PUF's Strategic Weapons, as well as counter attacks, in the event of WMD warfare. In addition, CODA is in charge of insuring safe and clear skies for the Federation. All aircraft in the Federation are tracked by CODA in some way. With two Command centers, one on Juventud Island, and one in the mountains of Wellovia, an attack on one will allow the other Command Center enough time to react. Both command centers (Juventud and Normandy Mountain) have the ability to request the launch of Nuclear Weapons, however, they both also have the power to veto the other command center's requests. CODA uses the following DEFCON System:
DEFCON 5:Peacetime Readiness Full Federation Radar coverage, Satellite scans, Tu-95 Bear radar scans authorized, routine sub assets at sea, maintenance flights for Strategic bombers, deployment of WMDs require authorization by both Juventud and Normandy Mountain.
DEFCON 4:Threat Possible or awaiting confirmation/Wartime Readiness Full radar coverage increased with maritime and Air Force assets, satellite scans increased, required non-nuclear aircraft patrols, regional sub assets in area are deployed, First Strike bombers put on 24 hour readiness routines.
DEFCON 3:Confirmed Threat/Major War Declared All aircraft entering Federation required to pass military checks or be brought down, constant patrol flights, backup aircraft patrols on standby, domestic mobile radar activated, sub assets deployed as needed (up 50% nuclear strike at sea), Routine first strike bombers in air armed with WMDs, Genesis Space Station handles CODA Traffic and prepares Exodus beacon, Classified code system used.
DEFCON 2: Possible WMD Attack/Invasion Imminent All civilian aircraft/airports/radar assumed under command of CODA, 25% or 50% First Strike Bombers in air armed with WMDs, Secondary and tertiary communication lines activated, all MOPAD command centers under lockdown, land based ICBMs prepped, All nuclear subs activate classified orders and are deployed.
DEFCON 1:WMD Attack Confirmed/Imminent loss of strike capability CODA gains full authority over Federal airspace, Launch orders are given, all available aircraft get airborne, First Strike bombers commence launch, ICBMs launch, Submarines are given launch orders/final orders or allowed full independence to use nuclear weapons at Captain's discretion.
Bureau of Secret Actions(BAS)
Bureau de Actividad Secreta
Formerly the Mokastana Bureau of Secret Actions
Formerly the MBSA, the BAS is the umbrella organization for many Intelligence and military based services. The vast majority of its work is classified and considered state secrets. Unlike other civilian agencies, who run internal investigations for each other, the BAS handles it's own internal affairs, this is due to the sensitive nature of the projects the BAS has. The BAS is made up various Divisions, each focusing on a certain objective. Below are a few known Divisions, however, many more may exist.
VIP Division: Security for government officials and other important figures in the PUF, including visiting ambassadors. They often partner with the Military, most notable the 2nd Jaguar Elite Division, which handles the manpower and military equipment needs of security. While the VIP Division supplies counter-espionage and specialized agents.
Foreign Intelligence Division: The branch of the MBSA that is in charge of all overseas Intelligence gathering. Operations can include anything from sleeper cells to active pursuit of intelligence.
Special Operations Division: believed to be a more specialized branch of the Foreign Intelligence Division. Accused of various black operations, such as: snatch and grab, assassination, extortion, target specific attacks, regime change and others.
Biological Division: A division who's purpose is to protect against chemical and biological attacks on Federal Soil by any means necessary. Also has final oversight of all Chemical/Biological weapons research.
Oversight Division: Stated objective is to check the MBSA for enemy spies/corruption within the MBSA and other organizations. All agents in this division are believed to be handpicked from other Divisions and receive specialized training for these operations.
Special Situations Division: Very little is known of this Division, it is only described as being designed for: 'Internal and External threats by unusual means'.
Politics
Political Parties
Major Political Parties
The People’s Party(ARP): The traditionalist party, successor to the People's Armed Republic Party. This party is considered the 'strongest' party and has significant support. They aim for a generally socialist society that allows private enterprise to exist, to a point. They believe that everyone that contributes to society should not have to worry about food, water, shelter, or power, but luxury and higher quality goods should be left to the market.
Liberal Party (OLP): For those who are torn between the problems of socialism and conservative a middle ground party was formed. A party that still supports the ideas of public options but to a lesser degree than the Socialists or People's Party. Unlike the People’s Party, supports higher weapon legislation, only major political party working towards this goal.
New Conservative Party(COP): The major conservative groups in Mokastana, formerly the Livertad party and the Conservative party joined forces to create the New Conservative Party. Believing in Capitalism over collectivism as well as keeping the government out of People's personal lives, the conservative Party has grown to be the main counter party to Socialism in Mokastana.
Influential Political Parties
Socialist Workers Party(SWP): Perhaps the oldest party in Mokastana, this party is ran by socialist workers and believes that Mokastana is farther away from true Socialism then it should, often siting the problems of Montana Inc to show the problems of Capitalism. It is also the only political party with a known militant force, called the Socialist Workers Army, one of the oldest private militias in The PUF and precursor to the modern Federal Army.
Iron Hearts Party(IHP): Basing their beliefs and ideology off of the Lyran Military hierarchy, they wish to see a fully unified Federation who produces soldiers of the highest caliber. Already all Mokan citizens are to serve up to four years after education in the military and the Iron Hearts Party sees this as a waste of resources. They want every portion of the Federation to be contributing to the Federal War machine, building a navy and army made up of the best resources from around the globe.
Protectorate Party(PRP): Breaking off from the Iron Hearts Party after a disagreement regarding the Imbrinium/Stevid war, the Protectorate Party puts Honor above loyalty. Believing if an ally acts dishonorable in combat or life, you may distance yourself from them. Basing their beliefs and ideology off of the Lyran Military hierarchy, they wish to see a fully unified Federation who produces soldiers of the highest caliber. They want every portion of the Federation to be contributing to the Federal War machine, building a navy and army made up of the best resources from around the globe.
Liberators Party(LBP): A political party that believes it is in the best interest of the People to keep the government on a short lease and as a servant of the People. This party represents a coalition of different small government philosophies, such as Social Libertarians, Collectivist Farmers and borderline anarchists. While it has never been a strong party with the industrial parts of Mokastana, the party has resurfaced in Aqua Anu.
Minor/Regional Political Parties
Zapatista(ZPA)(Mejico): Anarchist Socialism, wants to reduce both the power of the Federal Government and the Mejican Government. Relatively non existent other than as a minor political party in Mejico.
Democracy Now(DCN)(Wellovia): Borderline Nationalists and pro capitalist. This small political party in Wellovia tends to not to get much political backing already due to the more liberal nature of Wellovia.
Royalist Anuien Party(RAP)(Aqua Anu): A political party that originally wanted the restoration of the crown of Aqua Anu, now they act as political influence for the Crown. Often times the Party will vote in whatever manner the Regent or Queen suggests.
Political Factions(Non-Party):
Islands Forever(Aqua Anu): Monarchist that want to bring the old leaders back and separate from Mokastana, some backing due to the industrialization and militarization of the islands. Recently the organization had a few splits as a new Crown was made in Aqua Anu, with some supporting the new Queen, others wanting to push the Queen for independence, and others calling the Queen a pretender.
The Socialist Phoenix(Islands): 'True' socialist who believe that Mokastana is turning capitalist and desire to see the return of the socialist state, regardless of official meeting. Currently under investigation by the National Investigation Bureau(DIN) for possible terrorist activities.
United Moka!(Islands): Bizarre faction wishing to end the Federation and unify completely the governments of Mokastana, the exact version they want to see is questionable, but they have been receiving minor support from groups who would benefit from a true unified government.
United Companies Against Communism(everywhere): While not really a political party they are still an entity trying to rid Mokan culture of socialism using donations from various companies in Mokastana and possibly outside donors. Under investigation by National Investigation Bureau(DIN) for possible espionage and treason.

Economics
Military
The PUF Military uses a combination of Professional and Conscripted forces, with Professional Military units often deployed first to combat zones or overseas military installations. The PUF military is split into five branches: The People's Federal Army, People's Federal Navy, People's Unified Air Force, Federal Space Forces, and the Reserve Guard. Each branch has a professional force and a rotation of conscripts to maintain military numbers.
In total, 24.7 million troops are considered the "Professional Military" which handles daily affairs, conscript training, installation management and low to medium sized combat operations.
Conscription
Conscription is required for citizenship and while not all conscripts end up serving in the military, most will. conscription is considered a four year contract, often with two years active duty and two years reserve. Certain duties, such as deployments on Naval Vessels, will be three years active and one reserve.
Conscription starts post graduation of Primary School, at approximate age of 18. At this point students either defer until post University, or become conscripted. Conscription is split into Tiers.
Tier One is considered the first two years of Conscription and will typically serve in the Federal Army, Navy, or The Reserve Guard depending on military needs. In the event of a major conflict, Tier One Conscripts will be Activated first.
Tier Two is often the last two years of Conscription and will either be in the Reserve Guard, or in the Secondary Services. Despite still technically being in the service, many begin to return to civilian live during this Tier, often times with only a monthly drill for a few days to maintain their fighting skills. In the event of a major war, they will be Activated and may rotate with Tier one consripts.
| Primary Service(Act/Res) | Active Duty | First Reserve Duty | Secondary Service |

| Professional Military | 24,750,000 | ||
| Tier One Conscripts | 16,750,000 | 10,741,200 | |

Branches of the PUF Military
Considered the most important branch of the Federal military, the Navy has approximately 18.5 million service personnel on active duty at any time. Of these, at least half are part of the professional military. The Navy also maintains its own Air and Ground Forces, with more combat aircraft than the Federal Air Force. This Air Force is entirely carrier based and acts as the eyes, ears and claws of the Federal Navy. Naval ground forces, officially titled 'Naval Infantry' but often times referred to as 'Marine Corps' in English sources, has nearly 500,000 personnel who specialize in amphibious operations.
The People's Federal Army
Officially, the Army has 20 million members, but only 11.5 are Active Duty positions, with seven million considered professional military, the rest are conscripts. Of the Seven million Professional soldiers, three million make up the External Armed Forces.
Unlike the other Army Groups, that technically belong to the member nations, the External Army Forces can only be commanded by the Federal Government Itself. This branch of the Army specializes in security of international military locations, and are the first army units deployed to any combat zone. Membership in the External Army Forces is purely voluntary, as joining the professional military is required
Reserve Guard
The Reserve Guard is officially 17 million members, but only 6.5 million are on Active Duty, with 10.5 million Reserves. Unlike the Army, the Reserve Guard belongs entirely to the member nations of the Federation, and cannot be deployed outside of Federal Territory. This is because the Reserve Guard was created to maintain a militia at home to protect the Mainland in case of invasion while the army was at war.
Although on paper it has 17 million members, most are only part time Reservists and those on active duty are in charge of guarding and maintaining the large weapon stockpiles across the Federation. In case of invasion, the Reserve Guards purposes will be to slow the attackers long enough to supply civilian forces with weapons and hold until the Army can be recalled.
People's Unified Air Force
A small force for domestic air defense and long range bombing, the air force specializes in advance aircrafts due to their limited numbers, with only five million personnel.
Federal Space Forces
The smallest and newest branch, the Federal Space Forces handle combat in orbit and beyond. Barely 150,000 personnel, the Space Forces have the most Elite Combat soldiers and space craft of the Federation. While there is a lot of overlap between the Air Force and the Space Force, the Space Force focuses more on offensive capabilities.
Military Quality Identifiers
Unlike most military forces of the world, the Federation has two additional unit systems, independent of branch and rank, to rate the quality of a soldier. These can be used in any branch of the armed forces, and certain branches, such as the Space Forces, require certain levels to be achieved by all members of their Branch. This means they will often recruit from other branches, creating a mild competitive nature for the various branches to retain the most elite troops. As such, these independent qualifiers are used to grant certain military, and sometimes even civilian, bonuses to individual soldiers.
Warrior Societies
Dating back to pre-colonial eras, these warrior Societies are used by members of the armed forces to rate their combat experience or training in realistic scenarios. Originally it was only the Jaguar Warrior Society, who issued a set of claws to it's members to be worn around the neck in formal settings. This Society was one that was earned in literal blood on the battlefield, as membership required at least one confirmed kill in battle, with additional requirements as each level progressed. As an era of peace descended on the Federation, additional Warrior Societies emerged, one being the Eagle Society, that hosts mock battles for soldiers to get a taste of combat without a full war. The highest level of this society actually requires a mock battle with live ammunition, and wounding at least one enemy combatant. In the Far East of Aqua Anu, another Warrior Society was formed, this one around military discipline and skill. It was called the Tiger Society, with different schools, or 'tenants' that it's followers needed to study to become great warriors.
Members of any of these societies can be identified as wearing a necklace with a set of claws as part of their formal military attire. Jaguar Warriors will have a single black claw, and the colored rings signify their level. Tiger Society members will also have a single claw, this time dark blue, also with different colored rings to signify level. Eagle Society will have three yellow claws, and each one painted red signifies a higher level.
Training Level
In addition to the Warrior Societies, the levels of training a soldier received had become an unofficial way to measure a soldiers effectiveness in battle. Only recently did these levels of training become an official measurement of a soldiers skill for use in promotions and bonuses. As such they are as follows, starting from the lowest to highest: Conscript - All Citizens of the Federation are required to serve at least 3 years in the Conscripted Services. These are often young boys and girls who have basic training in weapons and tactics. For the Federation, this basic training also includes basics in Guerrilla Warfare, and Independent operations if cut off from command, ensuring each Federal Soldier can act on their own if necessary. Professional Soldier - These are the soldiers that have willingly signed for a contract of at least 5 years active duty. They will often be given extra training and duties, but the vast majority of them will be used to train Conscripts, maintain Domestic Defense positions, and secure the vast reserve weapon stockpiles of the Federation. Elite Professional Soldier - These soldiers are top qualifiers for willing Professional Soldiers. They will be assigned either to secure Federal Military Bases abroad, or serve in the Federations Spearhead units in the External Armed Forces. They are the Elite Forces of the Federal Army, making up the first strike units of the Federation to ensure quick and decisive victory at key battles. Special Forces - The highest levels of training, in which the Federal Troops are given unit training for specialized missions. Whether it be the Urban and Guerrilla Warfare School of the Embassy Defense Group, Space Combat Training for the Federal Space Forces, or even the Anti-Cartel gendarmerie training of the Department of Pharmacy and Controlled Substances. These forces specialize in combat roles, and are often expected to operate without support from the main military.
Registered Private Militias
Registered Private Militias are legal, and even encouraged, in the People's Unified Federation. Many former soldiers register with a Private Militia after service. However, regardless of status in the Militia, Federal Service is always the legal priority. If a member is activated by both the Militia and the Federal Military, Federal Military takes precedence.
