Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

From Star Trek to Star Wars, and from Dune to Foundation, science fiction has a rich history of exploring the idea of vast intergalactic societies and the challenges facing those living in or trying to manage such societies. 'Federations' continues that tradition, examining the implications of intergalactic societies.
