Even before Governance and the success of [[Project Janus]] various groups on Earth set out to travel to nearby planets at sub-light speeds. Colonies were established, cultural drift occurred, but once reconnection was ensured Governance enforced Fundamental Rights every henceforth Governance-sponsored or private colonization effort had to subscribe to.

This, as well as the general diverging nature of natural developments, lead to a mixture of free trade zones, fiscal unions and other economic structures surrounding among the colonies. These are influenced and in a roundabout way governed or influenced by Governance proper and it wielding Earth's economy. The more open aspects Earth deals with these structures is as an arbitrator and mediator in struggles among the colonies.

With the population the preselected colonization AI-human council arrives. The members are formally part of the bureaucracy of the Governance proper, but the leeway granted to colonies does not make this as rigid as it seems to be. Elections and referendums held by the locals are usually adhered to and council members are instated or removed by the local legal code, with Governance proper in most cases merely rubber-stamping the decisions.

The council manages the colony and establishes a legal code, often enough bigger than the legal code of Earth due to the lesser control of the government. <br>
 
−
In time, with the colony's economic growth and increase in population, it's council will run into difficulty managing the colony efficiently and a proper colonial government will be instated, based on the structure of Governance proper. It is at this stage a super-Representative of the colony will partake in Governance proper, part of relevant (sub-)committees, with weighted relevance in relation to the colony's participation.

Gradually, the colony will grow and be able to allocate more resources to its own growth, and those more effectively. The internal structure will develop and more Representative necessary and instated, thus making the colony more and more alike in functioning to Governance proper.

A proposed final merger of Governance proper and a colonial subsidiary requires a constant, reasonably instant and reliable connection between the governing bodies on an informational as well as physical level. This requires a significant amount resources as well as technological progress, both of which currently preclude a merger, even with [[Nova Terra]]. Even if there was no such limitation at the time, instability due to the [[Contact War]] as well as sociocultural differences between Earth and Nova Terra have both sides doubt the wisdom of the merger.

Without the material and resource support provided by Colonial Governance, these colonies are in some ways both more free and restricted to develop on their own. While the adherence to the Fundamental Rights is mandatory, most other aspects of its affairs are left to the colonies themselves, unless they impinge upon other colonies.

If a non-Governance sponsored colony gains substantial success, inspections by Governance: Public Order and Governance: Military Affairs are to be expected. It will intervene to establish or evolve a more Governance-congruent government and develop the colony more along the Governance-sponsored track. While it has no reservations to enforce such a change, even against dissent and discontent, Governance still prefers a gradual and agreeable transition.

If the divide to Governance runs rampant, though, Colonial Governance has no qualms to put a bigger focus on the rampant colony to preclude a possibly devastating development. There are a cases when an intervention was necessary, albeit always in measure and relation to the offence. The griever the offence, the harsher and more secret the intervention, with the exception of violation of Fundamental Rights, an offence that cannot be answered with anything but a coercive military intervention.
