Union Standard Credits

Union Credit Units is the standard currency of the United Stars of the Galaxies and directly linked to the ammount of Polonium an issuing bank has in store. Each issued credit can be exchanged for the equal value of Polonium.

Rad Shielded Polonium coins are commonly accepted as payment by all known civilizations that engage in any sort of trade. However since even Radiation shielded Polonium Coins could be potentially hazardous and very deadly and transactions especially with larger sums quite impractical, the UCU credits are used.

There are four Union Banks that issue UCU : The Bank of Pluribus Unum, the Bank of Ulta, the Bank of Saran and the Terran-Saran Bank.

Other Banks must have their operational funds deposited in Polonium at one of these four banks.
