| The joint government of the Dolgavan Confederation shall be ruled by the Great Council, formed of representatives of the four great estates. The Great Council shall have authority over all government affairs, and shall be the unifying body of the Confederation. The council shall oversee the joint diplomatic and intelligence services, manage common military affairs, and handle legal matters and enforcement. The Great Council shall be presided by the Coucil of Four, composed of the Four Princes of the Confederation, namely the Big Kahuna of the Tribes of Manoush ®, the Imperial Lord of the Kerisian Trade and Industrial League, the Grand Hetman of the Forest Militia, and the Grand Master of the Order of St. Parnum. OOC: I'll put this to vote after the elections, and after that we can turn the HoS into a "hereditary" office. Until then, I suggest you all have "." as your HoS candidate. Also, Abbot Metod died of radiation poisoning this year, maybe I'll mention that on the forum later. Lastly, what is your party's leader, Hrafn, so I can add his name to the proposal? |
