Government of Origin

The Origin System is a privately funded independent colony settled by the Alexylva Paradox in YC115. Lacking an official designation, much of the government of Origin remains in an ad-hoc state, and it has yet to be recognized as a legitimate government by other nations. The government itself acts as primarily a mediator and equalizer among the largely independent colonists and colony projects of the system.

History

The beginning of the government's formation began in YC115, as more and more colonists entered the system. Whereas initially all colonists were employees of the Alexylva Paradox, as the population grew and more and more independent industries and businesses began to open up, it was clear that a real governing body would soon be required. The Origin Colonial authority was unceremoniously founded in late-YC115 during first establishment of planetside habitation on Renaissance in order to better manage the planned colonisation effort on various planets Initially acting merely as an advisory board, It would soon find its present resources stretched thin by establishment of Foundation on Renaissance. As the population boomed with the establishment of the first city in Origin, Colonial Authority needed to expand its capabilities and resources. As a result the superorganismal body, the Council of Coordinators was established with assistance of Alexylva Paradox. This new body now acts as the head of government for the system. Below the CoC, a new division of authority was established, splitting the existing command structure into three branches: Alexylva Paradox, The Origin Colonial authority and the Office of Central Reconnaissance.

General Information

The Origin colonial authority is formed from founding corporation Alexylva Paradox, The Origin Colonial Authority and The Office of Central Reconnaissance. The Colonial authority was unceremoniously founded around mid-YC 115 during first establishment of planetside habitation on Renaissance in order to better manage the planned colonisation effort on various planets. It would soon find its present resources stretched thin by establishment of Foundation on Renaissance. With the creation of the first city in the Origin System the Colonial Authority needed to expand its capabilities and resources. As a result the Council of Directors was established with assistance of Alexylva Paradox, a new division of authority was established splitting existing command structure into three branches: Alexylva Paradox, The Origin Colonial authority and Office of Central Reconnaissance.

Alexylva Paradox

The capsuleer corporation. Since the governmental reform Paradox is responsible of majority of spacebound assets such as orbital customs facilities, starbases and various other related infrastructure. The corporation is also responsible for the system’s safety and security from hostile capsuleer corporations. The wider Colonial Authority interacts with Paradox primarily in an advisory manner, consulting with the capsuleers in their decision making, leaving most of the decisions up to the Corporation’s dedicated leadership of directors and sub-coordinators.

Origin Colonial Authority

The Colonial Authority’s responsibility is not only governance of the wider populace but also the related infrastructure and institutions. The authority is lead by a representative council of experts and representatives of different demographics present in Origin, numbering roughly 300. While at first glance the Colonial Authority’s role is seemingly purely administrative, their influence reaches further than most think. As the council’s experts manage anything from new road building and water reclamation to aiding various research groups and organizations in origin, such as the Radio telescope on Renaissance’s moon Synesthesia.

Office of Central Reconnaissance

The OCR is responsible of majority of the intelligence gathering and protection of Origin’s citizens from internal and external threats in a manner akin to their larger empire equivalents such as the Federal Intelligence Office. While their primary function is protection of Origin’s citizens they do not report to Colonial authority and are maintained under the sole supervision of Shiroh Yatamii, only giving peripheral support to Colonial authority and Alexylva Paradox.
