Whiteridge

General Information
Whiteridge is a town located in the center of Sethris, northwest of Eldham. It was founded by PvPHorizon on December 26, 2021. Home of the Dom Perignon, Whiteridge is a commercial town centered on brewing with an approximate population of 16 people.

Town
The town is based on a democracy ; the majority of the votes controls the decisions of the town. Every town's district elects their member of the council. The senate is made out of 4 magistrates representing : Economy, Military, Infrastructure & Culture. The founding mayor has the same amount of decisional power as the other member of the council.

Nation
The government of Sethris is a representative democracy, functioning on two main systems working together to keep balance.

King

The 'king' of Sethris will not be a permanent king, rather an elect from the council or an individual willing to put in the work to become a candidate. The king will have the power to veto laws and suggestions, suggest their own laws, and manage relations with fellow nations alongside the council. The king will be selected based on a majority vote from the citizens of Sethris, but will also be able to be dethroned or have their own suggestions and laws overturned by the council. This allows the elect to have large power within the government, though not to an abusive level. If the king is unable to fulfill their duties, whether this is due to issues outside of the game, a ban, etc, the council will vote upon a member to take their place until the next election. Elections will be held at the beginning of every month, and the king will have power until the next election concludes unless they are elected again. There is no limit to the number of terms a king can serve.

Council

The Council of Sethris will be a group composed of members of different jobs, communities, and various other groups from across the lands of Sethris. A single council member will not have the level of power that the king elect would, though the combined council would have more. This would allow multiple groups from across Sethris to have their voices heard in the government, meaning that no one group would be left out from decisions. The council will also be an even number, therefore making tied votes on subjects impossible, as one will always be king. Council members will not be elected by the general public, but instead will be chosen for their dedication to the nation and their trustworthiness to the state. If a member of the council is found to be corrupt, they may be voted out based on the judgment of other council members.

Law enforcement

Those convicted of crimes throughout the nation of Sethris will be judged before the council, where their fate will be decided. If their crime is against only the laws of Sethris, then a punishment within the government's power will be inacted, though if their crime is against the laws of the server, administators of the server will be notified if the accused is found guilty. If a council member is the accused, then the king shall serve in their place in their trial. All trials will be open to the public.

Various other things

Sethris will have no connection to the church, allowing all religions to be freely practiced as its citizens wish. The government of Sethris will have no right to take anything away from citizens without proper justification, and taxation cannot be without reason, especially when harsh.

This government system should allow all groups to be heard while also limiting corruption. These groups will be assembled soon so that plans for the government can begin to be put into place, and for the time being, I will do my best to lead the nation in the right direction until it is everyone's choice as to who takes my place.
