The United Earth government was formed in 2197 by the European Union, The NUSA and several other states in Oceania.
The Scandinavian state joined with UE in 2205.
When the AU also joined in 2225, the UE government wielded an economic and military force that no other mega-state could match. Their main contender for world domination, PAC, finally merged with the union in 2267.
Military (2290)
Terrestrial army
Akron class space exploration vessel
- Crew: 340.
- Passenger capability: 2,400.
- Length: 690 meters.
- Weaponry: x4 plasma .66 guns, x2 torpedo tubes.
- Notable ships: USS Seneca.
As the UE government never faced any advanced alien threats (before 2290), the need for offensive space capabilities was almost non-existent, and geared mostly toward shooting down terrestrial objects such as renegade asteroids.
The Aries class battleship, a capital warship that combined the roles of a space fighter carrier and battleship, was one exception, however. Only two of these were ever built.
Aries class battleship
- Crew: 1,900.
- Passenger capability: 200.

- Weaponry: x24 plasma .170 (x4) batteries, x16 torpedo tubes, x12 nuclear warheads (200kt to 2mt).
