Humanity is nominally ruled by the United Human Federation government on the Earth's moon, Luna. The federal government is closely intertwined with the mega-corporations. In essence, the federal government passes laws and organizes taxes and spending, while the mega-corps run day-to-day life for most of humanity, funneling resources upwards to the 'Gaians' who live secluded on Earth in opulent luxury. Because of their true power over humanity and their ridiculous resources, Gaians dictate their needs to the federal government, forming a shadow government. As such, what few representatives humanity has in the United Human Federation government are merely for show. The true system is a plutocratic late-stage capitalist society, which is threatened by the Machina. | Humanity is nominally ruled by the United Human Federation government on the Earth's moon, Luna.
