The United Federation of Provinces (also know as the Federation or U.F.P.) was a nation state spanning most of the Riverlands in 2012. It is notable for having the first republican form of government in the history of Minecraftia. Originally intended to form a sizeable, multi-province front against all aggressors, it never quite reached that point. Only the Riverlands joined as a province.
Background
As the Redstone Alliance raided the largely scattered Riverlands, the living standards of the inhabitants of the Riverlands diminished greatly. Poverty and crime were rampant in the face of continuous attacks. Despite occasional attempts by the Rebel Alliance to recover stolen goods and fend-off raiders, they never quite gained a military foothold in the Riverlands.
Republic, a young Riverlander, rallied a number of people into a military organisation much more coherent and unified than the Rebel Alliance, establishing common rules, rights and obligations of members together. From this, a nation-state quickly emerged and claimed itself as the rightful, legitimate government of the common folk.
Quarrel with the Rebel Alliance
Although the Federation saw a natural ally in the Rebel Alliance, unification negotiations repeatedly failed. Rebel Alliance representatives argued that the Federation violated people's freedom was a neck-breathing overbearing father-knows-best state. On the other side, the Federation criticised the Rebel Alliance for being dysfunctional, ineffective, unorganised and essentially nothing more than a ragtag group of resistance fighters. The Federation also stressed the need for a formal military, which counteracted the Rebel Alliance's cell-based structure.
Due to this, their relationship never evolved beyond "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and military efforts remained largely separate from each other.
