  • Earth is part of this interstellar nation, along with many other human colony worlds and countless alien worlds as well. The capitol of the United Planets is Superman's hometown of Metropolis.
  • The United Planets was a governmental body of the 30th century, an alliance of many worlds in the Milky Way galaxy. Earth was a member of this body, and home base of the United Planets' greatest defenders, the Legion of Super-Heroes. The Fatal Five once attempted to disrupt the United Planets by commanding mind-controlled members of the Legion to attack the UP's capital world.
  • The United Planets (U.P.) is an organization that was the main source of power in the Milky Way until 3013.
  • The United Planets, much like the real-life United Nations, is a council formed of all major races in the galaxy that regularly convenes to make decisions. The amount of clout a race has in the council depends on their influence, which is partially a factor of population, but which is also affected by planetary improvements and race bonuses (among other factors). The United Planets tab of the Foreign Relations panel shows just how the galactic voting power is distributed, how many weeks remain until the next meeting convenes, and a list of propositions that have been passed.
  • The United Planets was a government which existed at some point after humans became a regularly space-faring species. It bound together peoples from different planets opposed to the Daleks and was the authorising body for the Anti-Dalek Force. It was led by a president, who was the head of the United Planets Parliament — thus suggesting a parliamentary form of democracy. It was based on Earth.

  • Earth is part of this interstellar nation, along with many other human colony worlds and countless alien worlds as well. The capitol of the United Planets is Superman's hometown of Metropolis.
  • The United Planets was a governmental body of the 30th century, an alliance of many worlds in the Milky Way galaxy. Earth was a member of this body, and home base of the United Planets' greatest defenders, the Legion of Super-Heroes. The Fatal Five once attempted to disrupt the United Planets by commanding mind-controlled members of the Legion to attack the UP's capital world.
  • The United Planets was a government which existed at some point after humans became a regularly space-faring species. It bound together peoples from different planets opposed to the Daleks and was the authorising body for the Anti-Dalek Force. It was led by a president, who was the head of the United Planets Parliament — thus suggesting a parliamentary form of democracy. It was based on Earth. (DAN: Terry Nation's Dalek Annuals 1976 - 1979) At one point, its president was Cal Tarrant. (PROSE: The Doomsday Machine) The ADF were under his direct control, as evidenced by an extant communiqué from Space Major Joel Shaw which requested orders from Tarrant. (DAN: Special Report)
  • The United Planets, much like the real-life United Nations, is a council formed of all major races in the galaxy that regularly convenes to make decisions. The amount of clout a race has in the council depends on their influence, which is partially a factor of population, but which is also affected by planetary improvements and race bonuses (among other factors). The United Planets tab of the Foreign Relations panel shows just how the galactic voting power is distributed, how many weeks remain until the next meeting convenes, and a list of propositions that have been passed. The United Planets does not usually have a great effect on the game, but some of the propositions — for example, the transfer of unique researched technologies — can be extremely destabilizing if passed. Some of the propositions can also significantly and permanently change gameplay from that point onwards, for example if the Neutral Grounds proposition passes (and it almost always does) then warships are relocated away from hostile territory upon a declaration of war, making cowardly sneak attacks in the heart of another empire's territory less likely. Those propositions which are not permanent will usually state an end date, after which they expire and can be voted on again. The player does have the option of leaving the United Planets, but only at the expense of losing all trade revenue. If the player leaves the United Planets council, there is no way to rejoin. The United Planets can, however, be used to your advantage. By building up your technologies and then trading them with other races for their influence points, you can easily take control of the senate by having the majority of the votes, thereby ensuring that the motions are always passed in your favour. No Minor race participates in the UP. List of United Planets issues
