As humanity's unified government, TerraGov has the unceremonious job of herding around 200 countries, several dozen megacorporations, and international relations with the entire galaxy.

=Like Chalk and Cheese=
Humanity is like a black sheep on the galactic stage. Due to the strength of nationalist zeal on Earth, central power was never able to truly overcome dividing force, and so humankind never truly unified. Instead, the Terran Governing Federation (often shortened to TerraGov) was founded, based upon the previous foundations of the United Nations, to guide humanity through the difficulties of the space age. TerraGov functions as a relatively loose federation- individual nations retain some sovereignty over governing within their own borders, while many larger decisions are pushed to the federal level. Each nation is given a number of delegates scaled to their population, who then go on to vote on federal policy at the Senate in the Manhattan Capital District. Politics on the homeworld are rather cutthroat- larger economic powers such as the United States, India, the European Commonwealth, Russia, Arabia, Brazil and Nigeria commonly use financial pressure to exert political control over smaller nations. Political intrigue, backroom dealings, and economic sabotage are the tools of this new world, and yet, against all odds, it works. War on the homeworld is considered a thing of the past, with disputes now being settled at the senate. Bills are passed, and bureaucracy ticks on.

=International Districts=
As part of international arbitration, TerraGov has taken direct possession of a number of regions throughout the world. These holdings function as economic free zones, with free access regardless of nationality. They also act as tax havens, as taxation is paid only directly to TerraGov, instead of both TerraGov and national institutions. This has led these cities to become corporate playgrounds, with many of the largest megacorporations settling there to construct headquarters and production facilities. Major examples include [[Common_Core:Nanotrasen|Nanotrasen]], who have their headquarters on the Upper East Side in the TerraGov Capital District, and [[Common_Core:Cybersun_Industries]], who essentially run the TerraGov International District of Hong Kong and Macau.
