King of the Hill

I sic the Emerald Orchid on you.

Now, while I haven't actually read most of the book, from what I have read, I understand that the Orchid is a telepathic microgravity-borne FTL-capable radiation-absorbing EMP-generating alien something. Looks like a huge (moon-sized) green flower. And it can launch meteoroids with enough force to crack open a planet's crust. So yeah.

It brakes into orbit around your planet, absorbs every bit of radioactive fallout from your nuclear war, converts that into a massive EMP pulse that permanently kills every electronic device on the planet, then takes out a couple strategic targets with kinetic projectiles.

All in all, your authoritarian government is pretty much toast. I find a tiny hill in the middle of the ocean, shield and cloak it, and then watch as the anarchy unfolds.

My hill.

If you're wondering how I persuade it to do all this, the books also establish that anyone with a radio telescope and/or a mental disorder can contact/control the Orchid.

My authoritarian world government

?

I never launched any nukes, I took the hill via conventional warfare! I didn't want my 2nd mutated head taking my place!

So doesn't that mean its my hill..?

Some dumb kid thought it would be a good idea to shoot the glass dome and everyone in the colony died, to which I find in my spacesuit and repair as well as reinforce my now better colony. I welcome any survivors in if they prove to have good intentions.

My colony.

It's a communist colony. Since the world is currently uninhabitable we will be using authoritarian government until we can get at least a little more living space.

...and you can't rise up into the authoritarian government because we gave @Spacetraindriver veto power.
