Earth Federation (Galactic Century)

The Earth Federation, otherwise simply referred to as the Federation, but most commonly known as the EarthGov was the central, main branch of government that quickly followed the United Nations shortly after its apparent dissolution in the early 2000s. Said to have territory that encompassed a larger portion of the Milky Way Galaxy, the Federation utilized their vast resources and influence to specifically administer and protect Earth and its territories from both internal and external threats respectively.

The Earth Federation is the oldest stellar nation in the present setting, having been formed in the later Anno Domini era. It was regularly defined as a Constitutional Republic to the general populace and galaxy at large, outwardly living up to the image of an ideal democracy, and was largely composed of numerous colonized star systems that allied with Earth as a means to strive for and maintain economical security and prosperity. Alongside all of this, the Federation was considered the most powerful and influential nation of the galaxy, as its military and political prominence alongside its vast resources gave it a strong foundation against the younger nations. Only the Zeon Empire comes close to rivaling it.

The Earth Federation plays a pivotal role in Mobile Suit Gundam Alpha, as it is the faction the protagonists are usually associated with.

Trivia

 * Though it outwardly appears as an expy of the Universal Century's Earth Federation, Alpha's rendition of the EF is in fact an amalgamation of the various Federation styled factions in Gundam at large. This includes the United Earth Sphere Alliance of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, United Nations Earth of After War Gundam X, the Earth Alliance of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, the Earth Sphere Federation of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and the Earth Federation of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE.
