The Jedi Coalition was a government formed in Year 13 between the Jedi Order and Arkanian Royal Engineers, a private sector affiliate of the New Republic. The Coalition was dedicated to "freedom, peace, hope, unity, and a commitment to the Light Side of the Force as an eternal source of inspiration to the galaxy." The initial founding of the Jedi Coalition was dissolved shortly after it's inception, in Year 13 Day 292.

In the year 25, day 91, the Jedi Coalition was reformed, standing as an alliance of mutual parties, rather than as a government in it's own right. The founding members of the second iteration are, the Jedi Order, The Legacy of Ithor, Partisans, The Antarian Rangers, Muurian Interstellar, and the Guardians of Kifu.

History

First Founding

Founded mid-Year 8 as a banking company, Arkanian Enterprises became the first private sector affiliate of the New Republic. Over the past five years, the group went through several incarnations and established itself as one of the premier privately-owned shipbuilders in the galaxy. The Jedi Order, also founded mid-Year 8 as the Jedi Academy, marked a turning point in a turmoilous and decentralized organisation of the Jedi - a decentralisation that had existed since the corruption of Kal Fisto and the dissolution of the Jedi Praxium in Year 6.

Negotiations between representatives of the Arkanian Royal Engineers and the Jedi Order began at the Arkanian headquarters on Arbra, weeks before leaders of the respective organisations, Arkanian President Nat Dues and Jedi Grand Master Thragg Craghorn met with the press to officially confirm the formation of the Jedi Coalition. During the press conference, the works of Jedi Councilor (and former Arkanian Vice President) Colin Saracco and Jedi Councilor Onasha Katr were cited to be instrumental and impeccable, respectively in the diplomatic process surrounding the merger.

Second Founding

In the year Year 25 Day 91, representatives of the founding factions had individually reached out to one another to seek services that one faction could provide another. Seeing an opportunity to secure the benefits each faction brought to the table as something everybody could take advantage of, a meeting was convened to discuss terms to reform the Jedi Coalition, not as a government, but as a group of likeminded individuals who would work together for the collective good of the member factions.

Government and Politics

First Founding

The Jedi Coalition was formally established on Year 13 Day 166 with Arkanian President Nat Dues ascending to the position of Chief of State. The High Command led by Chief of State Dues, consisting of ranking members of Arkanian Royal Engineers and the Jedi Order, oversaw the integration of the two formerly separated organisations into a fully-fledged government. Discussion on the structure of the government continued through the transition with an informal Leadership Council established to obtain a wider consensus from members outside of the High Command. On Year 13 Day 212, the Jedi Coalition High Command formally ratified the Constitution.

In accordance to the Constitution, executive powers were exclusively vested in the High Command along with limited judicial powers, primarily in criminal disputes. A legislative body consisting of meritorious members, the Coalition Assembly was established to allow for a "permanent place expression and debate" and approve amendments to the Constitution. Recognizing the presence of members of the Jedi Order outside of the Coalition, the Constitution granted limited citizenship to such members and ensured that they are subject to the Jedi Council of the Jedi Order, instead of the Coalition High Command. On Year 13 Day 292 the Coalition was dissolved.

Second Founding

A shift in the moderation of factions, companies and other groups in the galaxy, had lead to a limitation in services that could be provided by most, leading to a sudden shortfall in resources for all but the largest of companies and governing bodies. This in turn allowed for smaller companies to open a dialogue to discuss the provision of mutually beneficial services to one another; a sharing of information for protection of a star system, ship building facilities for mining opportunities.

It was such a negotiation that lead to the founding of the second Jedi Coalition in year 25. The founding members found they all had something the others needed, and instead of negotiating trade licenses, fees/tariffs and the like, it was agreed that a coalition be formed to provide these services to one another at little to no cost.

Whilst not a government in practice, it was agreed that certain roles be filled by elected members of the founding factions to ensure smooth running of the alliance. Shortly after the inception of the alliance, Coalition Charter was drawn up to confirm the conduct of each member, how services can and should be shared, but also allowing each member faction to operate autonomously, as required.

The coalitions missing statement reads as: We, the organizations of the Jedi Coalition, come together to form this alliance as a bulwark against the expansion of the Imperial Union, criminal organizations, and those who would seek to unbalance the peace and stability of the galaxy. Our Vision is to establish the Jedi Coalition's worlds as beacons of light in a sea of darkness, to guide these worlds forward in peace and prosperity, to keep the galaxy in harmony, and to preserve the balance of the Force so that justice may flourish. “For Light and Life!”
