United Federation of Planets

The United Federation of Planets, also called the Federation, and sometimes called the UFP, is an interstellar federation of XXXX worlds located in the Alpha Quadrant of the Galaxy. The Federation is a member entity of the Eleutherian Union, an interstellar supranational Confederation composed of the Federation and the Terran Confederacy. Founded originally as the United Republic of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol by the inhabited worlds of the Cyrannus System, the United Republic began to expand the number of member worlds as more worlds were explored and colonized. By the time the United Republic was reorganized into the United Federation of Planets, it had come to encompass some 128 worlds in some NUM systems and thousands of dependent colonies. After the War of the Covenants between the Federation and Terran Confederacy (so named, as "Covenant", a modern translation of the, "foedus", is the Latin root of both "federation" and "confederacy"), the Federation and Confederacy signed the Foedus Unioni, which saw the Union of both entities into an Eleutherian Union, in which the UFP and the Terran Confederacy became [con]federated states in this new Union.
