Right of Protection

The Right of Protection is a right given to each member planet of The Union. It allows for any member planet to call for military protection against a threat. Sometimes a colony wishes to be protected from its oppressive mother world so that it can declare itself independant. Other times the colony is requesting protection against an invading force. Regardless of any disagreements, when the Right of Protection is envoked, the two closest fleets must protect the planet they were called to until the role has been fulfilled.
