Government
The United States of Vesica, is the youngest federation on the planet to date. Officially recognized as the United States of Vesica, after the collapse of the Dominion Empire and the inept leadership of Supreme Commander Chris Kontuk and his final and last successor acting Supreme Commander Ivan Silva. In order to protect the nation, a member of the General Staff, Alexander Tanner, lead a democratic reform throughout the nation, leading the final evolution of the Dominion Empire into the United States.
The Vesican Federal Government is divided into three branches, the Executive, the Legislative, and the Judical.
The Executive branch consists of the President, the Vice President, and his chosen cabinet, the Lesislative branch of the Congress and Senate, and the Judicial is the law division of the government, headed by the Attorney General, followed by the Supreme Court.

Vesican Leadership
President: Kaitlin Young
Sixth President of the United States of Vesica. Member of the Patriot Party. Former Secretary of Defence and Director of the Office of High Command’s Section Four. Almost all of her military career is classified and will likely remain that way giving very little to her past. What is known she was the youngest officer and women ever to achieve General rank, achieving Brigadier General at 31.

Secretary of Defence: Scott Irvine
Head of the Vesican Department of Defence, the civillian oversight department overlooking the Office of High Command. Irvine is the first SecDef not to have previously hold a military position, which considering President Young and Vice President White’s own service records is surprising. Despite his lack of activity in the military, he is an amazing bureaucrat and worked in the Office of High Command’s Section One’s civilian branch.

Secretary of Foreign Affairs: Nick Jessop
Head of the Vesican Department of Foreign Affairs. A well known international politician, who has been kept on by every President to date in their cabinet, for his overwhelming ability, and his history in international politics since before the Dominion’s Collapse. Even President Young has noted his talents and is one of few Freedom Party politicians to remain in the Executive.
