User:Consul~enwiki/Fourth Republic

The Fourth Republic was the first government that fully considered the fact that humanity was no longer concentrated in Newfoundland. Consequentially, the first city soon faded as other significant population centers rose to challenge it's economic and industrial domination. It was also the first government driven to return humanity to the stars, as per the original intention of the colonization effort. Many planets were colonized in its centuries-long existance.
