-Once all human leaders are replaced with processing units and the processing network is organized to Centrian standards the area is considered integrated into the //Full Development Zone//.  The territory is officially absorbed into Centria, and all political, economic, and security matters are handed over to processing units.  +Once all human leaders are replaced with processing units and the processing network is organized to Centrian standards the area is considered integrated into the //Full Development Zone//.

 ==== Parties, Ideology, and Politics ==== ==== Parties, Ideology, and Politics ====
 +
 +=== The System ===
 +The only legal political faction is known simply as //The System.// System membership is a prerequisite for almost all leadership positions.
 +
 +=== Gelaunth ===
 +//Gelaunth// is a Com-Zed word that roughly translates to "Technological Advancement." The concept is quite complicated, however, and brings with it connotations of social change, personal improvement, advocacy of a moral good, and even progress towards some utopian end state.
 +
 +=== Kaumut ===
 +Also from the Com-Zed, //Kaumut// in a literal sense means "Unity." Like //Gelaunth// it inherits many additional meanings, including ideas of community, social well-being, and ideological purity.
