Melmac is ran by the Imperial Intergalactic Trade Federation, Due to nuclear war, the Imperial Federation enforced the laws of the surrounding planets, Melmac, Alvin, Alvin Heights, Dave (Object Kowal & Chiron) & Pluto & possibly Mars. The Federation signed the Intergalactic Imperious Constitution, However, due to the destruction of Melmac, The Federation made a new Imperious Constitution, This prohibited starships from Melmac to leave a Federation controlled section of the galaxy, ALF became an outlaw & was pursued by the Federation & sneakily swept down to Earth to avoid persecution.

Edit
