Kara Ghami

Kara Ghami (Body of the Fresh Place in the Shuga Ghami tongue) is an Abex nation, built around the Oruqai monastery of Ghami, currently populated by ~ 12 active monks, as well as housing pilgrims and missionaries. The nation pursues a policy of total political neutrality, making it an adequate place for signing international treaties.

History
Earlier History can be found in: Oruqai

After their exodus from Ghaqo, the believers of Oruqai settled inside the nation of Kaisenuvir, converting the majority of the population and leading to the theocrat being overthrown. To prevent something similar to happen with their religion, the monks, along with the high-up religious leadership exiled themselves to an island, where they founded the monastery of Ghami. As the influence of the monastery grew and more and more non-monks requested citizenship, the nation of Kara Ghami was founded.

Religion
The monastery functions as the main hub of the Oruqai faith, with most theological debates being decided there. These include:


 * 1) The first Council of Ghami (23rd of March)

The monks also decide what holy works are to be considered canonical, keeping the original of every canonical work within their library.

The Council
Kara Ghami is a Monastic Republic, led by a council of monks, known as Kghaimuluqa (Union of Hearts of God), currently made up of two members, Atalagha (aka. Mlgkiddoritofan) and Wilusa. Their purpose includes, but is not limited to:


 * 1) Inducting new members into the monastery, which requires only the permission of one member.
 * 2) Choose work assignments for monks.
 * 3) Exile monks, who violated religious law, which requires at least 50% of the council to be in favor.
 * 4) Create new positions in the council, which requires 100% of the council to be in favor.
 * 5) Destroy a council position that is currently not in use by a permanent member, which required at least 75% of the council to be in favor.

Council member's Will
Council monks serve until they either die or retire, which is automatically assumed after more than one month of inactivity. In this case, every council monk leaves behind a will, assigning a regular monk to take over their position temporarily. These temporary members will only be in power until an election is held, two weeks later.

Council Elections
Every Monk with Ghami citizenship is allowed to cast their vote for another citizen. The Monk with the most votes joins the Council as a permanent member.
