Governing System
Complete Council
The Complete Council of the ICG is formed of all of the representatives of the Membership.
Central Council
The Central Council of the ICG is formed of all current and former Chairs and Deputy Chairs, and representatives of the most powerful members.
Deputy Chair
The Deputy Chair of the ICG is an individual chosen by the Chair to be their successor. They are second only to the Chair, and are permanently on the Central Council. Currently, the position is held by NetworkSoutheast.
Chair
The Chair of the ICG has control of minor affairs in the day-to-day running of the ICG. The Chair holds their position until resignation (formal or automatic), when power passes to the Deputy Chair. If the deputy chair cannot be found, it will come down to a vote in the Complete Council for a member of the Central Council to receive the seat. Chairs are permanently on the Central Council. The current Chair is Nexurian.
Embassies
The ICG sets up embassies in member towns and cities if allowed to. Currently, there is one being constructed in Rainer Bay.
Domestic Sub-Orgs
ICG International Policing Front
The ICG International Policing Front, or ICGIPF, is the lawkeeping branch of the ICG. It is deployed to help local police forces or to root out international criminal organisations.
ICG Order Restoration Team
Although similar to the ICGIPF, the ICG Order Restoration Team, or ICGORT, also includes construction experts and medics. It is used after a war, or during a period of instability.
ICG Health Organisation
The ICG Health Organisation, or ICGHO, is the healthcare branch of the ICG. Its operatives are nonviolent and are deployed to areas where local healthcare systems are failing.
ICG Department of Transit Co-Operation
The ICG Department of Transit Co-Operation, or ICGDoTC, is the branch of the ICG devoted to linking its members with transport links.
Economic Sub-Orgs
ICG Committee on the State of the Economy
The ICG Committee on the State of the Economy, or ICGCotSotE, is the committee of the ICG that makes economic decisions related to the bettering of the ICG’s economy.
ICG Committee on the Environment
The ICG Committee on the Environment, or ICGCotE, is the committee of the ICG that makes environmental decisions.
ICG Broadcast Commission
The ICG Broadcast Commision, or ICGBC, regulates and provides funding for news networks owned by ICG members.
Military Sub-Orgs
All of the Military Sub-Organisations are controlled by ICG Military Command. This is formed of the Central Council and select individuals.
ICG Permanent Peacekeeping Force
The ICG’s Permanent Peacekeeping Force, or ICGPPF, is the omni-neutral permanent force of the ICG used to solve disputes between members or even between nonmembers. They are not deployed to support revolutions or quash them, but can be deployed against insurgents (but not revolutionary insurgents) and to stop fighting in contested areas or combat zones. It can also be deployed as a deterrent to members if they feel threatened by insurgents or other military powers, even without proof of danger.
ICG Permanent Task Force
The ICG’s Permanent Task Force, or ICGPTF, is the task force used to support revolutions and capture high-value targets. It is not used for peacekeeping reasons. The ICGPTF is used prior to a ICGCTTF being formed, and often deals with early stages of fighting. These are the most elite troops.
Slogan: ’ Nullam maximus ipsum metus nisi.’ (‘The best of the best fear nothing except for fear itself.’)
ICG Bureau of Intelligence
The ICG Bureau of Intelligence, or ICGBoI, is the intelligence gathering department of the military arm of the ICG. Operatives are used to steal or copy documents, sow discord, or semi-legally support revolutionary groups.
Slogan: ’Security over Privacy’
ICG Aerospace Patrol Department
The ICG’s Aerospace Patrol Department, or ICGAPD, is the permanent airborne arm of the ICG’s military. It works closely with the ICGNC.
Space Laser
Three points about our space laser:
- 1: It is located near to Starbase 1.
- 2: We will only fire it if we are attacked or if we need to cut cake.
- 3: It is a redstone-crystal high-energy beam emitter with the designation RCBE-1.
Main article: ICG Naval Coalition
The Coalition Navy of the ICG (also known as the ICG Naval Coalition or CNICG/ICGNC) is the naval branch of the ICG. It is used to patrol the waters around members or bases.
ICG Coalition Temporary Task Forces
If the Complete Council calls for, and the Central Council accepts the proposal to form one, an ICG Coalition Temporary Task Force, or ICGCTTF can be formed. These can be used for many roles, but only stand for the predefined time window, combined with any extensions.
