An imperialistic socialist / fascist alliance of nations, the COG warred with the Union of Independent Republics for 80 years during the Pendulum Wars, fighting for control of Imulsion deposits and to advance the governing philosophy of the COG Allfathers. The nation of Tyrus is the center of COG power, with the capital city of Ephyra being the headquarters of the COG military and office of the Chairman. After winning the Pendulum Wars with the Hammer of Dawn, the COG enjoyed six brief weeks of world domination before the Locust emerged.

* ICallItVera: To say Paduk favors the Markza would be a grave understatement. In ''Judgment'' he is adamant that the Markza is not a gun, it's a ''comrade''. If Kait or Del picks up a Markza from his table in ''5'', Paduk would respond in approval, complimenting them for having "good taste" in guns.

Rated M For Manly is about works, not characters


* RatedMForManly: His actions are arguably this played negatively. He's a ColonelBadass with NervesOfSteel and the utmost confidence in his troops beating the Locust... by telling them to just keeping fighting and seeming to regard the very possibility of them losing only being a result of cowardice, rarely ever bothering with giving them tactical orders.

Asskicking Leads To Leadership is the new name of the trope.


* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Hoffman's in charge of the COG military because he's the highest ranking officer that was tough enough to survive against the Locust. [[spoiler:Also because several other higher-ranking officers had their deaths faked and were sent to Azura. Hoffman was not selected to be sent away because Prescott knew he would never agree to it and because he beleived Hoffman was the best choice to defeat the Locust.]]

* ShoutOut: His passionate speech in preparation of Operation Hollow Storm in the beginning of Gears of War 2 is reminiscent of Federation leader Sky Marshall Dienes' speech in Film/StarshipTroopers. this was likely intentional considering the similarities between the Coalition of Ordered Governments, and the United Citizen Federation, along with the fact that that Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski has openly expressed his appreciation of the movie.
