	The Interstellar Engineering Bureau, or IIG, is a large firm which predates the IARG and is responsible for the construction and maintenance of stationary spaceborne and orbital facilities within the Yggdrasil system such as the orbital Helium-3 facilities of Empyrean, the Thalamus Research Station Network near Nüwa, and – most importantly – the Galatea platform above Galatea itself. Founded in 2268 by the chiefs of staff of the Brahma and Galatea platforms, the IIG has since expanded into its current role as the main constructor and maintainer of orbital platforms in the Yggdrasil System. Unlike its terraforming counterpart, the BDJeG, the IIG works outside of Galatean space and has built spaceborne facilities throughout the modern Coalition.

	The IIG most often works alongside Xanu-based corporate entities such as the Markhor Interstellar Logistics Group, which it utilizes to move much of the construction materials built for its use upon Svarog to where they are needed in the wider Spur. It has been known to work with both Hephaestus Industries and Einstein Engines while abroad as both are more widespread than the IIG itself is. The current Research Executive of the IIG is Masayuki Cousineau, a ~~resurveyed~~ engineer from Tsukuyomi who has spent much of his career building facilities for the Federation’s scientific expeditions.

	The internal and external security agency of the Federation, the MfAS is a large ministry as responsible for protecting Galatean academics secrets as it is for ensuring dissent does spread amongst the population. The MfAS has broad powers which let it act with immense authority, limited transparency, and almost no oversight. The Federation views the MfAS as a vital part of ensuring continued Galatean technological innovation, which the Technocracy values above all things, and MfAS operatives are often sent abroad with Galatean dignitaries to serve as their security attaché. Despite its importance the MfAS is often a subject of popular criticism abroad as it is regarded to be the “face” of the Galatean security and surveillance system.

	MfAS ministerial technocrats are drawn from both the degreed and non-degreed population of the Federation. Due to their role as security personnel and, at times, spies, they are typically heavily bioaugmented to perform their duties at the highest level possible. A common augment utilized by many MfAS technocrats is an adjustment to their facial and throat muscles which allows them total control over their expressions and vocal tone, as it is easier to lie when one is expressionless. A common foreign rumor is that MfAS agents have an augmented form of speech similar to a [[Vaurca\|vaurcesean Hivenet]], but these rumors have been denied by the MfAS itself.

	Unlike Xanu, Himeo, and other future Coalition member-states the Yggdrasil System was not represented at the peace talks on Earth which resulted in the signing of the Treaty of Xansan in 2287. The Treaty saw Yggdrasil fall out of direct Solarian control and into the Alliance Neutral Zone (ANZ) between the Alliance and Coalition. Gadpathur, which was assumed by most to have been simply bombed into oblivion aside from the Gadpathuri, was similarly not present. The Yggdrasil System was now placed de jure under Solarian control while being de facto independent, if not aligned with the Coalition. Expedition Director Amaya was now faced with a decision: to remain with the Alliance or to align itself with the new Coalition as a nominally independent state, and to determine what this new state would be if it were to be declared. Calling her council of experts together once again Expedition Director Amaya sought the best course of action for the Expedition.

	The result of this meeting was the foundational document of the Federation: the 16 October 2288 Treaty of Galatea. This document, ~~which is been~~ on Galatea itself, declared the four planets of the Yggdrasil System would form together into a federal state ruled in a technocratic manner which would benefit all and favor none. The name of this state, the Federal Technocracy of Galatea, was taken from the project which had created its worlds. Furthermore, the Treaty founded the Galatean Federal Navy — made up of formerly Gadpathurian vessels — and Army to defend itself. The Treaty declared the Federation was not part of the Alliance as it was in a neutral zone, but would willingly work with its former masters to a reasonable extent. It also declared the Federation would work with the Coalition but was likewise not a technical member of its roll of member-states. The Technocracy sent messengers to both Xanu and Earth, where both were received with some confusion but ultimately acknowledged. The Federation was now its own nation and would succeed or fail on its own, without the Department of Colonization to cushion its fall.

	In 2260 the Galatea Project’s ambitions met reality as the Second Great Depression saw the Department of Colonization’s budget contract as markets crashed across the Spur and the government desperately attempted to control a spiraling budget deficit which worsen as the decade continued. In the Yggdrasil System the Department of Colonization’s budget cuts were felt as regular supply convoys began to reduce in frequency and contained less supplies when they did arrive. Supplies acquired from the Alliance’s frontier regions and colonies, such as Xanu, did not resolve what had become an increasingly dire situation for the Expedition, which had to continue its terraforming process on Galatea and Svarog or risk potential ecological catastrophes as the terraforming technologies spiraled out of control.

	Faced with the prospect of losing all progress they had made forever, the Expedition made a difficult choice. To sustain both operations the choice was made to begin drawing materials from ~~Yggrisil’s~~ two gas giants, Nüwa and Ymir, and their moons. Planetary-scale mining technology such as the legendary Brahma platform was utilized to crack the surface of the gas giant’s moons and massive amounts of resources were siphoned from the giants themselves, all in the name of sustaining a project which they had sworn to see to its end. More resources and more workers migrated from the Solarian Frontier in order to sustain the Expedition’s massive mining and extraction operation, and the formerly small scientific expedition now found itself in charge of a large number of non-degree-holding workers who had become increasingly vital as autonomous industrial equipment, which had to be imported from the Solarian Core, became harder to acquire at the required rate.

	As the 2270s dawned the Expedition had effectively drained Ymir and its moons of materials, turning the gas giant into a floating mass of rocks and debris, and nearly drained Nüwa to the same extent, but they had almost reached their goal by 2275. Galatea itself was, as of 19 November 2272, declared officially fit for habitation to much celebration in both the Expedition and the Department of Colonization, which had had to scrap several less successful Galatea Project ventures due to budget constraints and was thrilled to have any success. Terraforming Tsukuyomi, its moon, was initiated later in the same year due to the vast amounts of resources left over from Ymir’s destruction and promises of further resupply efforts by the Alliance as the economy improved. Svarog, though not nearly as far along in the process as many in the Expedition had hoped, was habitable by late 2274 and, assuming supplies from the Core and Frontier were sustained, both it and Tsukuyomi would be brought to the same standard as Galatea by 2285 at the latest.
