Council of Diplomatic Affairs and Public Relations

The men and women of the Council of Diplomatic Affairs and Public Relations are charged with upholding the image of peace, equality, prosperity of the Avance Coalition. Both by maintaining relations between the Coalition and other governments and corporations in the galaxy, and by controlling the image the media portray of the Coalition.

Avance diplomacy serves the values and ideals of Avance Coalition in a way that truly reflect them: cooperation and help that stretches beyond the boundaries of Avance space. We are confident that through cooperation and communication Avance space, territories of other governments and all regions of the Galaxy will be safer and conflicts costing irreplaceable lives and struggle for masses can be avoided or resolved. We also believe that through economic cooperation the flourishing Avance businesses can provide a boost to regions lagging behind or uncover new opportunities for established business hubs alike for the unilateral benefit of all partners. Our confidence in these ideals is backed by numerous proven and working models of cooperation.

We believe that a blooming society cannot be built on conflicts or aggression, Avance Coalition therefore is and will remain neutral in galactic conflicts. Although we wish to share our success with other regions of the Galaxy we respect jurisdictions and regulations of other governmental bodies.

Methodology and structure of Avance diplomacy

Avance Coalition has a professional framework of government institutions and diplomacy functions are integrated to it's decision making and communication chain. The Avance Coalition and it's nationalized companies speak with one voice with our partners constituting a single entity to be addresed though Avance Coalition. The Council of Public Relations, together with it's staff also referred as Diplomacy and Public Relations (DAPR) is tasked with representing the Avance Coalition and it's Houses and nationalized companies to third parties and canalizing requests and communications from third parties to Avance decision making bodies. When talking to DAPR any partners might be assured that they receive legitimate answers from authorized Avance decision making bodies.

Avance Coalition though does not believe in empty formalities or gestures lacking real content and trust in diplomacy. Our diplomacy is based on a developmental process that starts with establishing the fora and framework of communication and successive stages of cooperation built on the stable basis of mutual understanding and trust proven by time and practice.

As a major rule partners of Avance diplomacy are governments or groups performing government tasks in their respective jurisdictions. In special cases our diplomacy might be involved in trade enquiries, but other than developing a framework for trading generally nationalized companies and individual Avance citizens are involved in day to day trading. As nationalized companies are also incorporated to our information channels their leaders are aware of the special cases needing government attention or involvement.

Council of Defense

The Avance military was created with one thing in mind: Defense. The Avance armed forces fall under the juristiction of the Council of Defense, led by the Consul of Defense and Commandant of the Avance Security Forces.

The Avance Armed Forces are split into two distinct groups. The Avance Security forces, who are entrusted with the protection of the Avance's territory, and the Azurian Blades, who pledge their lives to protect the Major Families as well as serving as an elite special forces team.

The Avance Security Forces are the standing army of the Avance Coalition. The Avance Security Forces is open to all sworn citizens of the Avance Coaltion, no matter the standing in the House System. The Avance Security Forces are the sworn protectors of all territory that resides within the Moddell Sector. The Commander of the Avance Security Forces is the Lord Captain. The Lord Captain is a member of a minor or major house who has demonstrated that they are superior to others.

The other division of the Avance Military are the Azurian Blades. Force-trained warriors of the light, the Azurian Blades are tasked with the protection of the Major Houses, serving as Avance's most elite honor guard, and as elite special forces. For an individual to become a member of the Azure Guard they must not only have sworn allegiance to a house, but they also must demonstrate a vast superiority in combat that only few ever attain, in addition to their force-sensitivity.

The Avance Security Forces are known for using only the best of equipment, which includes the 600-meter long Dreadnaught Heavy-Cruisers, the Y-wing starfighter and Carrack-class Light Cruisers, all supported by a vast array of smaller ship types. Divided into Fleet Groups, the Avance Dreadnaughts ensure properly defended systems, and a safe population.

Rendili StarDrive, an Avance ship-production company, currently has plans to develop a number of starship designs, intended to improve the ASF's ability to defend Avance territory. Once those designs have been finalized and production on the designs is starting, these designs will be shown on the Rendili StarDrive holosite, provided they're not classified
