Every Combine [['Mech]] regiment from [[Rasalhague]] to [[Luthien]] is listed, along with the totalitarian government's structure, a description of the [[ISF]] (the Coordinator's secret police), and excerpts from the ''[[Dictum Honorium]]'', which spells out the codes of conduct for Kurita citizens.''
