Fiction:Pan-Andromedan Ecumene

{{quote|The {{fiction|Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth}} united our galaxy in war and fostered cooperation in peace. But ultimately we were still divided as a galaxy. We still flew our own banners and considered one another by the states we were born in. I suggest no longer; All of us in essence, from the shining spires of {{fplanet|Alcanti}} and Crepusculum to the forests of Mardvenia, are Andromedans. Children of the stars of our celestial halo. And despite biology or culture, that is what we are. I ultimately declare us a diverse but united civilisation for a diverse galaxy, a Pan-Andromedan civilisation that will walk in unison, differences and all, into a celestial future.|{{captain|Uriel Ultanos}}

The Pan-Andromedan Ecumene (alternatively the PAE or the Andromedan Ecumene) is a diverse intergalactic territory. A direct successor to the {{fiction|Andromedan Galactic Commonwealth}}, the Andromedan Ecumene is a society that values the concepts of order, progression and unity, historically uniting the Andromeda Galaxy under the idea that no matter a person's prior nationality, all denizens of Andromeda are members of one galactic society previously obscured by ideas of differing nationality but united under the belief that a single entity can be greater than the sum of its parts.

With members holding ocnnections to numerous intergovernmental organisations, the Pan-Andromedan Ecumene enjoys an enormous sphere of diplomatic as well as economic influence in the First Gigaquadrant.
