Augustan Federation

The Augustan Federation is an international organization in CivClassics 2.0 that consists of Mount Augustan successor states and nations with Augustan cultural heritage. Federation members are divided into two tiers of membership, the Council, a mutual defense alliance, and the Consortium, a wider economic alliance.

History
Following Mount Augusta's inactivity and the posterior creation of Mount September and South Augusta, the need for an international organ that grouped Augustan successor states together became more and more apparent. Drafts for the charter of a proto-augustan union began to be made in early 2021.

Following the Confederation of Socialist Augusta's admission to the Augustan Council on March 2021, all augustan successor states were part of the Augustan Federation. The Augustan Council elected squareblob its first President that same month. However, the expulsion of South Augusta from the Augustan Federation marked the end of the alliance between all of former Mount Augusta.

Augustan Council Members
The Augustan Council is the main body of the Augustan Federation, as it is in charge of electing the President of the Augustan Federation, currently RedDevel, and deliberating whether to admit or expel other member states. In addition, Augustan Council members agree to defend each other from unjust aggression. Each Augustan Council member state has one or two representatives.

Augustan Associate Members
Augustan Associate member states participate in the non-aggression pact, and also the wider economic union. This allows like-minded states and their members to collaborate in projects that range from infrastructure to cultural activities.

Augustan Development Bank
The Augustan Development Bank (ADB) acts both as an auditor of the Augustan Federation's resources, as well as an intermediary between rising non-member states or individuals and the rest of the Augustan Federation. It is directed by the ADB Chairman, appointed by the AF President. The position of ADB Chairman is currently vacant.

Principal Council
The Principal Council was made up of Principal Representatives from the Augustan Federation's founding members (Mount September and the Antipodean Union). This body could veto some rulings, if in unanimous agreement. As of October 14th 2021, the Principal Council no longer exists.
