The Department

The Department was a brutal, totalitarian government agency that dominated Great Britain in the mid-21st Century turning at least part of the world into one giant dystopia.

Overview

The Department was a cover-up created by Korven from the year 50'000 for their planned invasion of Earth in the past. The Department was led by the secret Korven Lomax, who hid his form by conversing with his subordinates via viewscreen, seen only as a shadowy silhouette. (K9TV: Eclipse of the Korven) The Department was in control of at least the United Kingdom, the Americas, the Pacific Union and other lesser countries. (K9TV: Lost Library of Ukko) Aside from Lomax, Inspector Thorne, the governor of Dauntless Prison, also aided the Korven's plans as he was a hybrid between the Korven and the Merons, who the Korven helped destroy the Jixen homeworld. (K9TV: Hound of the Korven) There were also at least two other Merons in the hierachy of the Department. (K9TV: Liberation)

It kept the population under control with it's robotic forces such as the CCPCs who were notorious for police brutality, robot surveillance cameras, hovering orange spheres with lasers and the Department also created androids. They were willing to go to any lengths to gain the public's obedience such as publicity stunts and propaganda messages. (K9TV: Liberation/The Bounty Hunter/Sirens of Ceres)

The Department also maintained a harsh policy on aliens, capturing any that came to Earth. They were referred to as Fallen Angels and imprisoned in Dauntless Prison.

It was later revealed that Lomax was actually a Korven, and Thorne was a spy, implanted with both Korven and Meron DNA. Both were killed shortly afterwards (K9TV: Eclipse of the Korven); What this means for the future of the Department remains to be seen.
