Since the origins of [[Vyllurian#Kyan Liberalism\|Kyan Liberalism]], philosophers across the universe had been thinking about its ideas. Wherever Liberalism went, soon followed capitalism. Private enterprise had such an advantage over the previous feudal system that feudal nations either reformed themselves or became colonies. Thalsiedeln was one such world, one to embrace capitalism. The planet was liberated from the [[Triumvirate Civilization\|Triumvirate]] [[Garrison System (Cosmoria)\|Garrison]] that had occupied the system for millennia. The void left by the Triumvirate caused great tumult in both politics and philosophy, though Thalsiedeln enjoyed sustained growth. Even so, the accumulation of wealth and eventual financialization of the economy put great strains on its society.

	Many tried to take the ideas of liberalism further—such as the early socialists and communitarians. While the socialists failed to crate a society modeled after their vision, the communitarian authoritarian ideal manifested dozens of times. Even centuries later, the Confederacy would find itself surrounded by communitarians, the ancient idea had a certain appeal that made it hold on. One Human philosopher living around [[Helyar#Exriel\|Exriel]], Arminius Weltmann, noticed the failures of previous socialist movements. They relied too much on the individual, he wrote, as these philosophers were fundamentally liberal. He believed that the creation of a new religion, a new church, would grant the stability of millennia-lasting civilizations, such as the Triumvirate. Workers would become part of something bigger than themselves, with social policing taking the place of the state's secret police.

Workers would become part of something bigger than themselves, with social policing taking the place of the state's secret police.

			He called his idea Dialectical Deism, since he believed that it was the inevitable result of natural selection. Some society would eventually, through the sheer variance of civilizations across the universe, accidentally discover this system. He spoke of it with great religious reverence, as though Providence worked through the randomness that abounded. Within a century, his predictions came true. Avid readers of Weltmann began working to shape the progress of Thalsiedeln.

	===Origin===		===Origin===
	The Confederacy of Borealis would form gradually as various worker cooperatives across [[Thalsiedeln]], [[Arlioux]] banded together to protect their property. With time, this new organization would be called the '''Confederacy of Thalsiedeln'''. It was not a government, ~~but~~ a "confederation" of worker cooperatives, unions, and syndicates that was effectively a political party. By 8785 CE, they had made the local government, the United Republic of Inner Arlioux, into a one party state. In 8830, the election to elect the chairman of the Confederacy received more votes than for the president of the Republic.

By 8785 CE, they had made the local government, the United Republic of Inner Arlioux, into a one party state. In 8830, the election to elect the chairman of the Confederacy received more votes than for the president of the Republic.

	From Thalsiedeln, it would begin ravenously absorbing all private ventures around itself; the workers of these ventures simply formed a union and joined the Confederacy to force their bosses out of the workplace. They would establish a "Thalsideln Universal Bank," completely absorbing all banking on that world. In the lawless corner of Martial Space the Confederacy sat in, it would need to enforce its loans using its guards. In 8845 CE, the Confederacy created its first para-military group; it was composed of volunteers from across Thalsiedeln and the area around it. Very soon they started giving orders to the Republic's military, who, as majority card-carrying members, were just another organ of the Confederacy. They never dissolved the United Republic of Inner Arlioux, ~~besides~~ the acronym ~~becoming~~ ~~more~~ ~~commonly~~ ~~used~~ as "Uriah."

They never dissolved the United Republic of Inner Arlioux, though the acronym URIA became "Uriah" after some centuries, with some even calling it the "Uriah Republic."

	With rapid expansion came growing pains. Some of the oldest unions began to demand an increased share of confederacy-owned assets. Under pressure, the president "annexed" these troublesome organizations. While this sparked outrage across the Confederacy, even prompting some organizations to leave, it became impossible to do business on Confederacy-dominated worlds without being a member. On certain worlds, trade could only take place amongst Confederate-allied organizations. Many collapsed or were disbanded as they folded under pressure from leadership. The Confederacy became nearly as coercive as the tyrants it replaced.		With rapid expansion came growing pains.

	By 8898, the Confederacy had five billion members. It was one of the most influential organizations in Martial Space and certainly its wealthiest. The unmatched dynamism of its workers lead to higher quality products. It almost wasn't fair, having well-fed workers each with a share of profits compete against peasants and slaves. It was no wonder the Confederacy became a symbol of hope for the huddled masses of Aylathiya.		By 8898, the Confederacy had five billion members.

The Confederacy of Borealis ([[Boreal Basic]]: <span style="font-size:85%;">𐌺𐌰𐌽𐍆𐌰𐌳𐌴𐍂𐌰𐍄𐌹𐍉𐌽 𐍅𐍉𐌽 𐌱𐍉𐍂𐌴𐌰𐌻𐌹𐍃</span>), often abbreviated as '''CoB''', also called '''The Confederacy,''' is a large international para-state organization comprising hundreds of thousands of cooperatives, syndicates, religious organizations, guilds, orders, and unions united under a congress and president located throughout most of [[Cosmoria]]. While having direct control over little territory, it nearly entirely controls the economies of major Human worlds such as [[Thalsiedeln]], [[Petra]], [[Aegyn]], and [[Albedo]]. Were its economic influence measured as energy consumption, it would outrank most nations.

	To many, the '''Confederacy of Borealis''' represents a beacon of democracy in a hostile galaxy populated by dictatorships and technocracies. To others, the Confederacy is a force for ill, raiding cities as though they were state-backed pirates. To still others the Confederacy represents the entrenchment of capital and a betrayal of its original worker-centric model. Governments see it as a guarantor of order and rivals see it as a threat to their hegemony. Regardless of perception, the Confederacy is one of the galaxy's largest creditors, controls vast swathes of its wealth, and is even capable of galactic-scale military action; the Confederacy's influence can in no way be understated.

	The Confederacy of Borealis was at one point capable of military influence at the level of [[Cosmoria]], making it a military superpower despite its status as a non-state entity. While today it has lost this prestigious status, its large military apparatus remains a formidable foe on the galactic stage. The Confederacy controls many restored artifacts from older civilizations such as the [[Triumvirate Civilization]] and is a leader in technological research. The Confederacy has the largest voting power of any organization in the parliament of the [[Greater Martial Consilium]].

	These officials are mostly members of the '''Convention''' who, instead of running for reelection in the congress run for election in these offices. Each aspiring official runs to be president and, based on how they place in the election, will be rewarded a position. The candidate with the most votes will become the president, the next will get to be Fleet Admiral~~, the next Magi General,~~ etc. Often, candidates will intentionally undersell their run to maintain their current position or to gain a more desirable one.

	The Executive Council runs the government unimpeded save for changes to bylaws, which are regulations followed by the government, and legislation, which are regulations that manage worker's rights. The council exists mostly to handle large-scale projects such as the military, infrastructure projects, investments owned by the Confederacy itself, and to maintain favorable conditions towards members of the Confederacy.
