A Trans-Gov is an independent governmental authority in the Subnautica universe. Trans-Govs are entities that own territory but do not fall under the qualifications of a country or nation.

Definition

According to the Charter, a Trans-Gov is "an independent authority in de facto control of at least one solar system and phasegate". Note that in this definition a phasegate is defined as "any permanent installation which enables warping of spacefaring vessels between solar systems".[1] Most, but not all, Trans-Govs can trace their origins back to Earth.[2]

Structure

Known Trans-Govs operate under a board of directors.[3] Their population is made up of citizens. Trans-Govs are forced to follow the terms of the Charter by an enforcing military police called the Trans-System Federation (TSF), which is independent of but funded by all Trans-Govs.[1] Trans-Govs are a large state containing many smaller enterprises under them.[2]

Rights

All Trans-Govs are subject to a number of rights. To summarize the rights defined in the Charter[1]:

  1. All Trans-Govs are subject to the same, equal rights.
  2. The right to own phasegates and planetary infrastructure.
  3. The right to self govern, with exception.

Trans-Govs are also subject to a number of obligations and restrictions, also outlined in the Charter[1]:

  1. Share phasegate access with other Trans-Govs on fair terms at no cost to themselves.
  2. Financially maintain and comply with the TSF.
  3. May not develop weapons and technologies outlawed by "Appendix 91".
  4. May not engage in population abuse.
