United Colonies of Columbia
The UCC is a star state with control of a single class-G star system, Jefferson, which houses its sole habitable world, Columbia. The UCC's government is modelled loosely after the 18th Century American Articles of Confederation, and as a result the individual Colonies that make up the United Colonies have significant autonomy, while the confederal government mainly only manages commerce, diplomacy, and defence.
The people of Columbia are generally free-spirited and staunchly democratic, particularly ever since they repelled an invasion from the Union of Interstellar Communes in 2579. Due in part to the decentralised nature of the UCC, the nation ‘s economy is a mixture of manufacturing, service, extraction, and agriculture, though the latter is the most prominent. The UCC is moderately more religious than most star-states, and is one of the last remaining bastions of Protestant Christianity.
