| In order to facilitate the vocations which an area is perhaps better known for, and to provide for specialization in the fields of study which are most appropriate per location (like stonemasons near stone, and carpenters near forests) we propose that vocational schools be regulated by local governments, and thus achieve a closer association with the interests of the people. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
