  The CoDOMINIUM Headquarters
The CoDominium Universe (also known as the Empire of Man Universe) of Dr. Jerry Pournelle is a “future history”; series of novels and short stories about an alliance between the United States and the Soviet Union.
During the time the CoDominium is strong and stable, however, man begins to colonize the stars; by the time things fall apart on Earth, civilization has a foothold on other planets, and mankind survives.
Eventually, the Empire of Man forms around the planet Sparta, where the former CoDominium Space Navy transfers its loyalty; with the fleet's backing, Sparta becomes the strongest planet in the human-settled galaxy, and is the logical capital of the Empire.

Since the CoDominium stories are about an alliance between the United States and a power that no longer exists, the Soviet Union, the stories may seem “obsolete.” However, there is more to tell about this fascinating universe, which almost came to be, considering geopolitics of the recent past.

 Review: Falkenberg's Legion   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
(Already obsoleted by actual history,) the CoDominium was formed by the USA and the USSR at the end of the 20th century in an attempt to avoid mutual annihilation and ensure the two countries' hegemony on Earth.
In short, it's the typical motif of the final decline of a formerly great empire and the attempts of a handful of dedicated and farsighted men to delay the approaching end, putting out fires before the big storm sweeps away civilization.
Expelled from the CoDominium forces, this marks the beginning of Falkenberg's Mercenary Legion, an elite military force for hire, not controlled by any state, with exceeding qualities which are finally proven in an against all odds war for the independence of the world of New Washington.

These novels are based on the CoDominium universe in which the US and USSR joined forces against the rest of the world and started colonizing planets, mostly with convicts and welfare clients.
However, the CoDominium itself was not very stable and could have self-destructed at any time.
This series portrays a wide variety of military operations and tactics with units of regimental strength or less; CoDominium unit sizes are limited because of mission parameters and funding whereas mercenary unit sizes are restricted by the CoDominium laws of war.

The result of the debate was MERGE AND REDIRECT to CoDominium I've changed this from a speedy to a VfD, but I have to say that the subject still strikes me as not really needing an article of its own.
User:GeogreGeogre 02:06, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC) *As both The Gripping Hand and The Mote in God's Eye have articles, it wouldn't be best to merge it into ''The Mote in God's Eye''.
I suggest merging it into CoDominium instead, as it's an article on the fictional universe in which the '''Motie''' stories occur.
