Current Staff
(See Chain of Command)
Library Team
Led by the Chief Archivist, the Library Team is an organization rich in history and knowledge, and someone has to preserve them. This is the reason why the Library Team was created. Revitalized in Year 13, it works tirelessly to archive everything about the Federation and its members.
Morale Team
Personnel activities are an important part of the day-to-day life in the Trade Federation. Due to the need of someone to organize and monitor these activities the Morale Team was formed. Led by the Morale Leader, the team makes sure that the life of the Federation's members is full of entertainment and never dull.
Past Teams
Art Team
Led by the Lead Artist, the Art Team manufactured all images for the Trade Federation. They were the ones responsible for creating and maintaining the pleasant look of the Trade Federation's holosite, holoboards and assets.
Year 19 Day 88 was the last issue of the Federation Ledger. Art requests--such as the creation of new insignias, seals, or logos--are handled on a need-by basis. Identification cards are generated by software maintained by the Department of Holotech.
Federation Ledger Team
