Today's federation cannot be said to be monolithic and completely free of internal contradictions.
Wherever there are people, there will naturally be struggles. This is a problem that every civilization cannot avoid.
If we want to clearly distinguish these factions, there are four factions in the Federation today.
1. Canglan faction.
This faction is mainly the former Canglan faction, which is the core of the New Federation.
Whether it is the military, the Central Academy of Sciences, etc., the leaders of more than half of the federal departments are humans from the Canglan family.
Of course, as the greatest contributor to the liberation of all mankind and the re-establishment of the Federation, the Canglan family deserves these.
However, the number of people from the Canglan clan is not large. The number of people from Canglan so far is actually just over 200 million.
Second, the old federal faction.
This faction is composed of humans from the old federation after the liberation of the solar system.
Since a large number of humans retreated into the solar system in the later stages of the Ten Years' War, the population of the Old Federation faction is actually not large.
At least...
It is hundreds of times more than the Canglan series.
Of course, although the population of the old federation is more than 200 and nearly 30 billion, it is still not a large proportion in the federation with a population of more than 800 billion.
Moreover, the old federal faction also occupies a large number of important positions in the federal system today.
For example, the vice president of the Central Academy of Sciences...
For example, the head of the Federal Battleship Design Department...
Another example is the Chief Advisor to the Presidential Office, the Chief of General Staff of the Military Department, etc.
At the same time, because Jiang Xingchen serves as the hub, people from Canglan's group and those from the old federation can be said to be very harmonious. Within the federation's ruling system, the two factions can already be described as hardcore allies.
Three, the naturalized faction.
This faction is very interesting.
Even essentially, the people of this faction are not human beings.
because...
The current planning faction is composed of elves.
Of course, there may be other races that join this faction in the future due to their integration into the Federation.
However, since the elves have almost no desire for power, and all the women in the clan, the appearance of every elf can be called a star, or even beyond the level of a star.
Therefore, no matter which faction it is, it maintains a good relationship with the current naturalized faction.
There is no way, even in the interstellar era, appearance still represents justice to a large extent...
However, the population of the elves, even though it has been a long time since they joined the Federation, is still very limited, with a current population of about 600 million.
Therefore, the total population of the above three factions is less than 30 billion.
The current population of the Federation has reached 872.7 billion.
As for where the remaining more than 800 billion went?
This brings us to the last faction.
4. Galaxy Faction (self-proclaimed)
The so-called galactic factions are those humans who were enslaved by various civilizations in the galaxy during the 400 years of the Dark Age.
The population of this faction accounts for more than 90% of the entire federation.
However, except for Xue Qiang of the intelligence department and some minor departments, they did not receive more power.
In fact, there is no way around this. After all, professional people do professional things.
People from the old federation faction are undoubtedly the most professional group of people in the federation today.
Even people from the Canglan faction have at least managed the entire Canglan faction in the Death Nebula for more than 400 years, and they are also experienced.
But many of those who were rescued were trained by other civilizations for the slave trade.
But much of the training is focused on combat skills and battleship control.
Furthermore, there will be no command-type talent training.
Therefore, from this aspect, this generation of them is inherently weaker than the Canglan Faction and the Old Federation Faction.
But in the next generation, after everyone receives the same education, the galactic faction with its absolute population advantage will definitely occupy a large number of important positions in the federal system.
However, this faction is not without its merits.
You must know that the Canglan resistance army did not have a large population at first. Later, when a large number of new fleets were formed, they largely relied on the rescued and trained humans.
Therefore, although there are not many senior officers, the number of mid-level officers in the federal military today...
That's not a lot at all, it even accounts for the main ingredient.
In addition, when the new federation was formed, in order to appease this faction, Su He also made many of them serve as deputies in important departments.
Originally, all the people in the Milky Way faction were also satisfied.
After all, if we focus on the next generation, with a population advantage of more than 90%, they will inevitably become the largest and most important faction in the federation.
However...
The third-stage gene-enhancing agent was successfully developed, and the pre-research of the fourth-stage gene-enhancing agent began.
Makes all this different.
Everyone can see that the federation's genetic technology will completely prosper.
And what result will this lead to?
The result is...
The big guys in power today will live longer and longer, and one day in the future, they may even become immortal.
In this case, let alone the next generation, it will be the next generation, and the next generation...
Neither can climb to the top of the federal pyramid.
after all...
The current federal management team is leading the federation to become stronger step by step.
So why change?
Even if Su He's term is up, they have no doubt that with such merits, he can still be re-elected.
You must know that although the Galaxy Faction has more than 90% of the population, in fact, most people within it do not care who manages the Federation.
But as long as the federation becomes stronger and stronger, that will be fine.
Therefore, as long as there are no problems with the development of the federation, the galactic factions will always be able to occupy some non-important, middle- and lower-level positions in the federation.
then...
Some of them started to think wrongly.
If there are no problems with federal development...
Well, this matter is actually very simple. Let the federal management team make some mistakes.
Isn’t this enough?
Therefore, there was the previous incident of ignoring the opinions of the Academy of Sciences and forcibly promoting the use of space collapse cannons to conduct a trial attack on the god Masar.
Although Su He, Jiang Zhuliu, Mu Zhengfeng and others had already guessed their purpose from the beginning.
But still did not stop it, but allowed it to develop.
They even asked people to respond to their call and join in the attack.
Su He and others need to see clearly who are these people who are willing to sacrifice the interests of the federation and even lead the federation into an unfavorable situation.
And is there a bigger driving force behind it?
In order to understand these and completely eliminate the negative factors that harm the federation in a timely manner.
