===[[File:HumanNat.png]] A Shared Human Identity===
World Federalists have a shared sense of humanity that manifests through an attachment to a human identity that surpasses all other identities. Concepts like race, culture, religion, or ethnicity are less important to '''World Federalists''' than the common humanity found in all people.

===[[File:Fed.png]] [[Federalism]]===
As established in its name, World Federalism wants divisions of power between federal and localised governments in a theoretical world state. This limits bureaucracy and gives sufficient autonomy to the wide variety of different peoples that would make up the political and social body of the world nation. In practice, this limits the authority of the central government and allows regional governments to create many of their laws and regulations depending on their unique needs and values. As such, this prevents an inefficient and bloated government.

===[[File:Humanismpix.png]] Humanism===
At the core of '''World Federalism''' are its [[File:Humanismpix.png]] {{PHB|Humanism|humanist}} principles and philosophical origins. Regardless of an individual's ancestral origin, ethnicity, race, or gender, all people are humans and should be treated as such. This means '''World Federalists''' are "responsible for the promotion and development of individuals [and must uphold] the equal and inherent dignity of all human beings, [generally emphasizing] a concern for humans in relation to the world." This may also extend to the enforcement of a secular value (ie a strict separation of church and state) while maintaining one's right to practice or not practice whichever faith they choose. In the modern context, it can be argued that the protection and preservation of the [[File:Envi.png]] [[Environmentalism|environment]] is a humanist issue as it has enormous negative consequences on millions of humans' lives.  

===[[File:World.png]] Unification of Humanity===
The final, and perhaps the most defining characteristic of '''World Federalism''' is its goal to create a global government encompassing all people across the Earth. This goal must be achieved through peaceful means (ID EST no [[File:Imp.png]] [[Imperialism|conquest]]) and has no solidified method. The most common suggestion is to reform the current United Nations by reforming or abolishing the Security Council and giving greater powers to the General Assembly.
