Ked Haggan

Government
The core of the Ked Paddah government is the Ked Haggan, "The Prudent Council". There are officially three-chambers to the Ked Haggan: a chamber of judges, a chamber of representatives, and a chamber of union. The first are the pool for the highest courts of appeal. They are voted in a universal election for life-time appointments, filling a pool of 21 Judges. The represenatatives are elected in a similar fashion to the Federation Council, effectively forming a parliament of representatives from all Ked Paddah provinces and colonies. These representatives are chosen from among the representative bodies of those provinces and colonies. The third is the chamber of union, where seats are accorded via a party list system to a two-hundred seat chamber.

The Ked Haggan assumes responsibility for much of the operation of government functions, and retains a measure of executive authority, which it will invest in members as required to address issues as they occur. For instance, the war with the Arcadian Empire led to the appointment of an executive to provide a 'unified decision-making fulcrum' to enable the Ked Paddah to act with a prudent degree of speed. However, day-to-day running is mostly an affair of professional bureaucrats operating under broad Ked Haggan policy.

Federation Membership
The Ked Paddah became full members of the Federation during 2323.Q3, with the worlds of Paddah, Adad Bande, Ashira, and Gad gaining Council representation.

Space Service
The Ked Haggan maintain the Magen Chalal, a capable space service, anchored by their Aggadah Battleships.
