International policing system

"The International policing system" (IPS) is a transliteration of a Persian term for Raitha's unique protocols for enforcement of international treaties and laws, established in 1546 to support the compute restrictions treaties and later expanded to support a global legislative body and independent police force. In exchange for security, continued economic relations, and political influence, most of Raitha's nations are fully compliant with IPS standards, with the notable partial exception of the Commonwealth of Antarctica, which is not a member of the Union of Nations and keeps its own set of minimized standards.

Near-unanimous consent to the IPS is maintained through a complicated game-theoretic calculus that ultimately relies on the joint threat of forced regime change and nuclear deterrence from the only two nuclear-armed Raithan states, the Persian territories and the EMPC.
