Star Trek has one, what about the OTU? What would the Mirror Universe of the OTU look like using the same principles for constructing the Star Trek Mirror Universe?
Instead of the Third Imperium, we'll call the the Third Empire, or perhaps someone could suggest another name. What if the Solomani Sphere ruled instead, instead of an Emperor, we have a General Secretary, technically it's the United Nations of a version of the Rule of Man which never fell, the Second Imperium. The Capitol of is of course Terra, or shall we call it Earth? Like in the OTU the Terrans conquered the Vilani, but the Long Night was averted. The Solomani rule from Earth, from the City of New York from a palace in what is today Central Park, the General Secretary resides, but the real rulers are the bureaucrats. The bureaucrats are the equivalent to the Nobility in the Imperium, most of the positions in the Bureaucracy are passed down from parent to child, so technically this whole Empire is a self-perpetuating bureaucracy, there are some elections for legitimacy, but they have long since failed to mean anything many thousands of years ago. Elections are once per decade and all citizens are required to vote in them, of course their choice of candidates are rather limited, government approved bureaucrats.
