Some more than others and usually the ones that have a dragon backed corp or syndicate tend to have more influence but usually in their region. Like Lofwyr & Saedur-Krupp pretty much run the United German States, Lung & Triads in China.

Like the Great Ghost Dance is an example of how the UCAS wasn't really able to do much to stop the creation of the Salish-Shidhe and elves + a dragon were able to carve out the Tir Tairngire
