Today, the Alliance is widely seen as a paragon of democracy in an increasingly autocratic galaxy. It is governed by a body known as the [[Alliance Assembly]], the primary function of which is to establish common policies and treaties among the Alliance's member systems, and act as an arbitration body when necessary.

The [[Council of Admirals]] is a six-person body comprising the leaders of the six largest military forces in the Alliance. In addition to selecting the prime minister, the Council also commands the [[Alliance Defence Force]], a vast flotilla of ships contributed by each of the Alliance's member systems.

The Alliance has systems with various government types. This includes systems where slavery is legal. For example Alliance systems with anarchy governments take slaves and imperial slaves which become regular slaves.
