Political Structure of the GBC

The Political structure of the GBC has changed many times over the last several millenia. At the moment it is quite simple, though it has been more complicated in the past.


 * At the top there is the High Magnate, equivalent of Emperor. He/she resides on Terra
 * Directly below High Magnate there are three Sub-Magnates. They reside in the political sector of Alpha Prime
 * Throughout the galaxy there are 34 Viceroys. They control their sub-sector of the galaxy


 * On Terra every 4 years the Council of Elders meet
 * There are 9000 members on the Council
 * Under the command of the council are the Marshalls, which control external threats and the Inquisators, which handle internal threats to the GBC
 * There are over one million Marshalls and Inquisators roaming the GBC
 * The Council selects Marshalls and Inquisators from the Captains of the GBC fleets
 * Once elected Captains are Marshalls/Inquisators for life
 * New Marshalls/Inquisators are selected every ten years
