abstract
  • The PGA had two branches; the executive and legislative. The executive branch consisted of the chancellor and vice chancellor, who were elected by general ballot with minor limitations on candidacy. The role of the chancellor was primary representative and diplomat, as well as commander in chief of the military, while the vice chancellor chaired the meetings of the senate. The legislative branch consisted of the senate and its members; senators and representatives. Representatives were appointed officials who represented the interests of the PGA's close military and economic allies. They were permitted to speak and to listen in at meetings, but were not permitted to vote. Senators were elected officials, elected by popular vote from among the constituencies they represented regardless of individual citizens were or were not PGA citizens, which were required to be worlds that observed the laws of the PGA constitution. Senators would speak, listen, and could raise and vote on issues. Bills were passed into law by simple direct majority. The PGA senate governed government spending and taxation, trade arrangements, could amend the constitution, and held the power to declare war. The PGA drew most of its revenue from taxation of trade routes and through the regulation of military hardware and narcotics. Member worlds paid taxes proportional to their GPP and corporations paid taxes to the PGA for the use of its patrolled trade routes, including the majority of the Perlemian Trade Route as well as sections of the Corellian Run, Corellian Trade Spine, and the Hydian way. The prevalent and liberal use of the PF-1 Aurek space fighters and Hermit-class missile boats as trade route security kept pirate attacks at an all-time low for space-faring transportation and trade within PGA-controlled territory. Trade sectors were eventually designated as a means of regulating large corporations and preventing them from achieving galactic monopolies while encouraging small business growth. The PGA's military consisted of the People's Galactic Alliance Forces, or PGAF, a naval branch that included attack, defense, and patrol fleets. The PGAF also included groups called ISSRs, or Independant Security in Service to the Republic, including GAR and the Old Jedi Order. The PGAF's primary role was to establish and patrol the PGA's trade routes and form defense fleets for its member planets. It went through several reorganizations as the PGA was confronted by different threats over its lifetime as the focus shifted from security and defense to war fighting.
