Brotherhood Republic
The Brotherhood Republic is a multi-server based faction. We make this possible without dividing up our forces by having a single sub-faction, or Legion, per server. The result looks very similar to a faction alliance, like the Brotherhood and Concord, but turned into the structure of a faction, which allows it to run smoothly without the worry of a faction leaving. To govern this faction, each Legion ruler, and their most trusted Officers, vote and discuss issues together before making a majority vote. This Republic system allows for each Legion and member to be equally represented while maintaining streamline efficiency. There are three main branches that make up the Republic: High Command, Militia, and Industry. All Legions will be categorized under a single branch (Militia or Industry) but may contain members from both. Each main branch also has sub-branches, which a Legion may classify as.

Ship Classification
Our ship classification guideline has been forged to guide a player’s builds to create powerful ships that will serve our purpose. Our ships are black with brown details and the emblem is made from ice crystals or brown hull. All ship names will follow the following format: name_classification

The ships we use are designed to be efficient while still retaining visual appeal. We use a uniform style to make our fleet look impressive, but the best part is what is under the hull.
The Creed
This Branch is made up of all the Commanders, their officers, and the Admiral. Each Commander has his own faction on a different server. Any and all decisions have to be voted on and a majority vote is the only way an idea will be acted upon. High Command has several responsibilities:
i. High Initiative An Initiative is an act by the High Command. These can range from declaring war to creating a treaty. All Initiative requires participation from all Commanders and Officers and requires a majority vote to be passed.
a. Revival Initiative
If a Legion that's part of the Republic goes under, High Command will assume temporary control of the faction and attempt to reinstate a chain of command. This will last until the Legion is fully operational again or is deemed unfit to operate and a majority vote to dismiss it is passed.
b. Genesis Initiative
The Republic can undergo a very special protocol, "Genesis", in which it helps an Officer create a Legion on a new server. Once created, the Legion is instantly accepted into the Republic, without vote, and gains full rights. If anyone wants to engage in a Genesis Protocol, simply message the Admiral.
ii. Creating Amendments to the Republic
In order to add or change something to the Republic, the change must undergo a strict process.
a. High Command must decide whether an amendment is necessary; a majority must agree.
b. High Command then writes the amendment and proposes it to their members.
c. After this point, every Commander votes, and a majority vote is required to add it to the Republic.
d. The Amendment is then added to the Republic or dismissed.
iii. Weekly Reports
Every Commander is required to report in to the Admiral at least once a week through the High Command message. Although these are not formal meetings, they are mandatory so that all of High Command remains informed.

The Militia is the military based branch of the Republic that is in charge of the defense. This includes organizing attacks, setting up defenses, and piloting ships.
i. Corps: The Corps is a sub branch of the Militia. The main difference between the two being that the Corps only flies small craft, mostly drop ships and fighters, and organizes and performs land based battles, either on planets or enemy bases.
ii. Mercs: Mercs are another sub branch of the Militia. While they perform very similar tasks as the Militia, they do them to assist allied or neutral factions to get a profit. The money earned is used to buy new equipment and shared with any other Legion on their current server. This is the only Legion that can go on the same server as another, as long as it is temporary. Only one Mercs Legion is allowed in the Republic.

Industry is in charge of all ship design and construction. Once a ship is completed and passed through proper inspections, testing, and approval of the High Command, it can become an official Republic ship and be used by the Militia. All ships are required to use the Brotherhood ships classification system.
i. Trading Guild: The Trading Guild is a sub category of industry which involves the collection and trading of resources for the purpose of building ships. They are NOT authorized to trade official Republic blueprints.

ii. If agreed upon, a vote is brought up. The applying faction must get a majority vote to be accepted into the Brotherhood.

A Legion being dismissed from the Republic is a very rare thing that is taken very seriously. Here is the process of dismissal:
i. High Command holds a trial where the Commander, from the Legion being discussed, represents his/her members.
ii. A vote is then brought up. The Legion on trial must receive a majority vote to be dismissed.
iii. If the vote is to dismiss the Legion, they are instantly banned from the Republic and considered hostile. If the vote is to not dismiss the Legion, the Commander gains all powers back.
