The Quadrant Assembly (A1-0)
The Quadrant Assembly is the sociopolitical institution in the Empire that deals with internal affairs concerning singular Quadrants, Star Systems or Colonies. The Assembly holds authority over all Ministries except for the Ministry Of Foreign Relations. Founded in 6214 BBT, the Assembly has the role of coordinating the terraformation and colonization efforts of the colonies in the Empire, overseeing the production of individual systems, exposing requests by singular Governors and reporting everything to the Emperors and the Council Of Clades. The Assembly is divided into three groups: the High Assembly, made up of the Quadrant Representatives, the Middle Assembly, made up of the Stellar Governors, and the Low Assembly, made up of the Planetary Governors. As of 6000 P.E. (0 BBT), the Assembly has 20 Quadrant Representatives, 5215 Stellar Governors and 31920 Planetary Governors. The Assembly meets on Galactya at the start of every year in the Assembly Hall, a large spherical building located in the Middle Plazas of Galactya's Diplomatic District. Other special meetings held via holocommunication for emergencies or in person for important or pressing situations.
The Quadrant Representatives
The Quadrant Representatives are the highest government functionaries (apart from the Emperors) who have direct control over Imperial Territory. Quadrant Representatives hold executive power over the entire Quadrants which they govern and represent to the higher layers of Government, gathering and coordinating all the administrative data from the thousands of Star Systems in their quadrants, ranging from production overviews, to commercial transfer, to tourism and migration. Like the Stellar Governors, Quadrant Representatives can request the military intervention of the Galactyan Armed Forces in specific areas or in specific Star Systems. All Quadrant Representatives gather as the High layer of the Quadrant Assembly, acting as the most important government sublayer dedicated to territorial governance and administration, with all Stellar and Planetary Governors reporting to them.
The Stellar Governors
The Stellar Governors are the high government functionaries that are responsible for the coordination, administration and representation of individual Star Systems. They possess executive power over all colony worlds in their systems, and are made the Planetary Governors of said System's Main World, the most developed and inhabited one. Stellar Governors can request aid from other Imperial Systems, as well as military intervention from the Galactyan Armed Forces. Each Stellar Governor acts as the guide and representative of the System's other planetary governors in the Quadrant Assembly, as well as in layers of Higher Government. All Stellar Governors gather as the Middle layer of the Quadrant Assembly, and report directly to the Quadrant Representatives.
The Planetary Governors
The Planetary Governors are the high government functionaries that are responsible for the coordination, administration and representation of individual worlds. They possess executive power over their assigned colonies, and oversee all aspects of orbital production, infrastructure and affairs concerning their citizens. Each Planetary Governor reports to the Stellar Governor of their colony's Star System, who will expose their requests and reports along with their other sibling colonies. All Planetary Governors gather as the Low layer of the Quadrant Assembly, and while they normally report to their Stellar Governors, they can report and expose their requests directly to the Quadrant Representatives, if they wish to do so.
