Confederation

I am updating the website for my Pulp Sci-Fi game, The Living Galaxy (http://home.attbi.com/~dbsousa/TLG.html), with many great images, mostly illustrated by Mike Linden. The only thing I am unhappy with is the name of the campaign. I want to convey the idea that the galaxy is teeming with life, without being that corny... Any ideas?

I assume from your post that this setting (and it's related webpage) are still under construction? What else can you tell us about the overall history of galactic civilization, culture, etc.?

Actually, I think I have given up on finding a new name. The themes that I am going for are include:
There is a nearly infinite diversity of life in the galaxy, but something binds it all together.
There are over a billion solar systems that support earthlike, sentient life.
All sentient life is connected in some fashion.

A localised phenomenon creates twin dimensions in which FTL travel is possible but not perfectly predictable. energy leaking from these dimensions can be harnessed to create all manner of fantastic devices, from antigrav scooters to noble blasters.

Since the players all come from a very small portion of the galaxy, that is nonetheless the largest and most succesful government in recorded history, I will refer to the game by its name: The Confederate Systems.
