Attention Institute Personnel! 

To celebrate the announcement of Season 2 of Stellaris Invicta, the Templin Institute will be conducting another Q&A session, this time dedicated to Season 1. If you have any burning questions left unanswered about the Greater Terran Union or some other aspect of their campaign against the galaxy, leave it as a comment here!

In the next few weeks, we’ll release a Q&A video on the Templin Archives channel answering all your questions, hopefully. This will be open to everyone, but priority will be given to our Patrons and YouTube members. 

Look forward to hearing any questions you might have!

Does The Mist Man actually exist?

Saurus Blood

Was the decision to restore the Florian home world a unanimous decision of the GTU or was there a lot of backlash?

JohnnyElRojo

Was there any political pushback against Terra as the extra solar commissariats developed and grew? What I mean is, was there any resentment from commissariasts holding dozens of worlds with countless billions of inhabitants, against the individual commissariats of Earth, whose vote had the same weight as everyone elses, but represented only a small surface of a planet?

Jedidragonking

What is your vision of the GTU as it heads off into it's golden future? Does it expand beyond the galaxy? What new threats would it encounter if it does so? Will the Mist Man bring an end to this golden age and thrust the GTU into an era of stagnation, decadence, and darkness? I know these are quite a few questions, but I am immensely curious.

thomas groves

Are you going to go over any of the megacorps that exist inside the GTU and other nation-states? And, how do they interact with each other and the GTU?

Count Thalim

How come Albion ended up as the capital of the GTU? It was mentioned that it was the first restored but does that mean the Albion was less affected by the war (admittedly being an island can help in invasions) or was it chosen as it was not part of any of the major power blocs? (Which I assume to be European, North American and Asian)

Quin Reiss

How did the humans manage to beat the tyrum in the first contact war? the odds of humanity being able to fight back against any alien invasion seems slim at best, so how did they do it?

Corey Barber

My question is how and why the great khan launched the attack against the invaders that allowed the union to secure Styx?

Max Kaval

Can you elaborate more on the National Council? It is mentioned in the prologue that each of the 20 Marshals leads a Ministry -- what are these Ministries? Are the Marshals of less military-oriented ministries still drawn from the military or are they drawn from the civil service? Finally, how much power is concentrated in the Office of High Marshal? As head of state, how much power can they exert independently?

Colin

Could the GTU ever collapse, and if so what would that mean for the various extra solar and Sol based commissariats?

Aeneas Reid

How does the GTU handle dissension and/or public protest against the government? Has the GTU ever changed its policy on the subject over time?

Moop515

I hope its gonna be an alien race so that there's space in lore for the GTU to be the endgame crisis hehe.

Moop515

As in for season 2 main race

SoggyNico

What are the political party's in the GTU

Zeal

What sort of cultural festivals / holidays / etc. do the GTU have? How widely celebrated are they? Do citizens and non-citizens have different perspectives on these events?

SoggyNico

Yes while it is a single-party state, they do say in the prologue of Stellaris Invicta Season 1 that there are approved opposition parties in the National Assembly which have nominal representation, but they have to be subordinate to the national interest of the GTU.

James Stewart

I would like to know about the role of the high Marshall. Is it a position that is essentialy the figurehead of the council, or do they have extra powers? If so, what are they? For comparison I feel like the council is similar to the federal council of Switzerland who collectively serve as head of state and government. There is a president but he or she doesn’t have any more powerful and the position if merely ceremonial in nature. Or is it like a semi presidential system which the high Marshall has many reserve powers. Also, does the High Marshall keep his or her department post, with the high marshall position being an additional responsibly (again similar to Switzerland where the presidency rotates (1 year term instead of 20)), and the councillors remain in their respective department. I think answering these questions about the supreme executive body of the GTU will give a better idea of its conditional arrangements

Drakeulous

How many tiers of citizenship does the GTU have. Is it a numbered system eg. 1-20. What is the highest tier a new conquered xeno can attain. Do children inherit their parents tier. What if the parents are of different tiers.

TheStoicEngineer

I don’t think you can marry someone in a different tier.

Drakeulous

Does the GTU have a singular currency and if so what is it called. Or is it a case were every commissariat have their own.

Anthony Hisey

Are there any movements within the GTU to demilitarize now that humanitie's survival is all but assured? any political factions, authorized and not, that might see the cutting back of the militaristic and authoritarian policies. I Guess my ultimate question is, Has or Can the GTU's Militarism and Expansionism be quenched?

Count Thalim

Leaving the mist man aside, what other terrorist organisations have their been? There was mention of xenophobic nativists that were put down but have there ever been secessionist movements on the colonies that have required putting down for example?

MichaelTrimmer

Will we be finding out more about the Cortez fleet?

forerunner398

How did the challenge of making your own world and story, as opposed to studying and presenting other worlds/stories, effect the Institute? Were there any lessons or insights S1 of Stellaris Invicta gave to the channel (be it something external like viewer interest, or something internal, like development process).

Alberich

Is there anything you would've done differently?

Quin Reiss

There’s already a video on it, the link is posted under a question above!

Ph501

What are the intelligence, counter-intelligence, and deniable black-ops capabilities of the GTU, if any? Who's is the GTU's boogeyman? And which conspiracy theory has survived for the longest time in the GTU?

Alain Vollant

will you place the flag of all of the proposed faction available as wallpaper?

SpartanDarrow617

Around how much of the Galaxy did the GTU control by the end? Percentage wise.

Khanet Preeteepveruriya

In the end, GTU cooperated most species in the Milkyway Galaxy, how do they standardized their equipment in the military for all those alien species? Also, is GTU still used projectile based weapons?

Quin Reiss

When is this coming out?

Drakeulous

Did this ever come out
