At the center of society lies the city. Each city, along with its surrounding lands, is represented by a council, with each councilor representing a subdistrict within the city. Each subdistrict, essentially a smaller city with its own center and housing, has its own sub-council. Depending on size and group diversity, subdistricts can be further divided to have additional sub-councils.

Cities can form coalitions, requiring at least three cities to do so. City coalitions have their own councils, and cities may freely join or leave coalitions as they desire. These coalitions represent common interests, with at least 80% of cities needing to agree on their councilors.

Land that is not part of a city is governed by its own council. Sub-councils may be formed here as needed, and the land is divided accordingly.

A world council is formed from all city coalitions, all cities not part of a coalition, and the council for the remaining land. Should humanity settle on other planets, the world council will transform into planetary councils, with an interplanetary council being formed. A new planet must have at least three cities; until then, its city councils are part of the planetary council from the planet they originally came from.

Sub-councils hold 20% of the power of their head council, requiring 80% agreement to override the head council's decisions.
