Leadership Structure
(Confederacy System of Government) Luxueux Corporation is more like a collection of smaller Minor corporations all operating under the Luxueux corporate name. There is a loose governing body, but it holds no real power other than branding and franchising and deciding which minor corporations are allowed to be a part of the MegaCorp. This means that a vast majority of the MegaCorp is run differently depending on which subsidiary an employee is working in. The minor corporations that are included in the confederacy are all working towards the common success but sometimes there is competitive infighting amongst them. The MegaCorp encourages this as it fuels further innovation and excellence. However, all members of the Confederacy must adhere to very strict standards for their goods and services to be high quality and well crafted.

History
During the final days of Earth, in what was Western Europe, the wealthy elite saw the end coming. In an effort to preserve their way of life and wealth they readily joined the Lunar Exodus Project to secure a place for them in the future. This project was a massive terraforming effort to make the moon a livable and sustainable environment for settlement. These European elite formed the very first MegaCorp and called themselves the Luxueux MegaCorp, a structure soon adopted in other areas of the world. Working primarily as consultants, diplomats, and a logistical supporter of the Lunar Exodus Project they toiled in tandem with the other continents and governments. However, as Earth’s resources became increasingly scarce, Europe found itself short on natural resources. This caused the Bauhaus MegaCorp to attack and raid Western Europe to try and take resources by force. A point of contention that remains between the two MegaCorps in current relations. Because they were mediators and support roles during the project they were in the middle order of the MegaCorp efforts to settle in Luna City. Because of their hard work playing mediator to the rest of the world, they felt entitled to a larger part of the city. Wanting a larger stake in the claims. So, during the initial settlement phases of Luna City, the Luxueux MegaCorp in a very hostile manner started taking over places in the city that were originally designated for Juxing Qiye territory. A raw point of contention between the two MegaCorps to this day.
