If you were to ask the average citizen the most powerful nation in the known galaxy, their answer would be either the Reich, or the U.I.S.S.R. Founded by revolutionaries in the early twentieth century off of the writings of Karl Marx, the U.I.S.S.R. remains the oldest currently standing nation known to humans. For practical reasons the modern Soviet government isn't pure communist, though those that are a part of the U.I.S.S.R. would never say so.

A Council exists to organize and direct the massive industrial juggernaut that their nation is. Each major aspect of the nation that requires government oversight or direction has a member on the Council. The Council member represents their organization that oversees a necessary aspect of the nation, some of which being larger or smaller than others and having more or fewer responsibilities. The Council members are chosen by peer vote amongst the higher echelons of their organization every ten years. The two largest organizations are the International Trade and Soviet Military.

The International Trade is in charge of not only acquiring goods from outside the U.I.S.S.R. that they cannot produce, but also evenly distributing both locally produced and imported goods as equally as possible. Certain products will of course not go to places where it isn't needed, but by and large traded and locally produced goods are spread about equally.

The Soviet Military is at the same time the largest and the smallest of the organizations that have a seat on the Council. The military has the fewest citizens within it, but when clones are counted it outnumbers the rest of the nation almost a thousandfold. The officers of the Soviet Military are all volunteer citizens trained in leadership and communications, the rest of the military are clones. The U.I.S.S.R. has twenty official cloning facilities, though the word facility is a misnomer (each "facility" is actually an entire planet devoted to creating clones for the Soviet military) and a common bar room question is how many unofficial cloning facilities exist.

Each cloning station teaches clones certain skills required to run a military ship outside of dry dock. Whether it be cooking, cleaning, maintenance, etc., almost everything done on a Soviet military ship is done by the clones. The only skills that are taught to every clone regardless of the facility that they originated from are related to fighters. Every clone is taught how to care for and pilot the Soviet fighters that form the backbone of their military.

Almost every ship in the Soviet Military that isn't a fighter is a Mantikora-Class Battle-Carrier. The Mantikora-Class Battle-Carrier has a 19,200 ft³ Officers' Quarters (which includes sleeping pods, restroom facilities, and a kitchen), one meter thick outer hull, a 38,400 ft³ bridge, and 93 conveyer belts that cross the entire ship holding fighters that hurl the fighters into combat. Each fighter is 4 meters tall, 6 meters wide, and 5 meters long at the four Point Laser Batteries. Each fighter is built in an X design with the four ends containing both a Plasma Torch Drive and a Point Laser Battery. When a fighter returns to its Battle-Carrier, it is housed on the conveyer belt before the Pilot Control Pod disconnects from the fighter's hull and transports to the Crew Deck (a roughly 10,000,000 m³ deck in the middle of the ship).
