Ferengi Alliance

The Ferengi Alliance is formal name of the Ferengi government. Based in Ferenginar, the Alliance is headed by the Grand Nagus, whose office is situated in the highest building of the Alliance, the Tower of Commerce. The Nagus is deified by the Ferengi populace for being the personification of success and shrewd business sense. He is revered as the highest example to emulate within the Ferengi Society. With the symbol of his power, the golden staff in hand, the Nagus can dictate almost every aspect of the Alliance's operations, as he heads the all-powerful Ferengi Commerce Association (FCA) and the military. The Nagus remains in power until he dies or is murdered by ambitious merchants.
Since the Ferengi Alliance is all about trading and business deals, economic activity is the primary concern of the government. The FCA is the most powerful organization governing Ferengi business within the Alliance. Unlike other minor associations, the FCA keeps track of every Ferengi's profits, family, holdings, business, and properties. Their reach exceeds the boundaries of the Alliance, and applies to any Ferengi dealing with the Alliance. A comprehensive annual statement must be filed with the FCA annually, which is scrutinized in case the Ferengi in question conveniently "forgets" an item. If caught evading tax collection, the penalties are severe.
