Changes

Coniunctis Viribus is unique on many grounds. Just one of these is the system of management that I feel the town deserves both as a revolution and experiment. No other town will have such a solid base of management where every person knows who they are and has something to aim for if they wish.

This system is as diplomatic as any town in Wurm is going to be. Ranging from Senators to the Imperator, there will be democratic elections on many levels and here I will try my best to explain the rules by which this will all happen from the lowest to the highest level.

The Senate as a whole will contain elected senators, partially elected magistrates and the partially elected Imperator.

The Imperator is the top of the tree, the only role under this category is Dictator – the one who tells everyone else what to do. He is the deed holder and leader of Coniunctis Viribus and has complete power over everything. He is the only person who can appoint magistrates and can, on the same token, dismiss them as he sees fit. The Dictator can also call senate elections whenever the need arises. The Imperator has full access to the senate, including The Star Chamber and The Archives. In extreme circumstance, the Consul can replace the Imperator, or by election.

The Magistrate is probably the most complicated group of officials in the family. There are nine offices under this section, although multiple people can hold the same office so there is not only necessarily going to be nine magistrates. There are two ways to become a member of the magistrate: one is by being or having been a mayor of a size 10 village with more than 15 premium members (but approved by the imperator). The other way is by private elections held by the current magistrate and imperator. The Magistrates also have full access to the senate, including The Star Chamber and The Archives.

The '''Princeps Senatus''' is similar to the role of the senator however it is a duty to keep the senators in order and, if necessary, to create petitions for magistrates/imperator to remove senators, so it is therefore necessary for the Princeps Senatus to have access to The Star Chamber as well as The Senate.

There are three types of elections; Senator elections, Magistrate elections, Imperator elections. The Senator elections are public where the entire family can vote on and the Magistrate and Imperator elections are private elections, where all the members of The Senate (senators and magistrates) can vote on.

Senators are elected from the family, by the family. Elections are held whenever needed, though will be frequent if possible. The Senatorial candidates will be selected by the magistrates and imperator. The current senators will remain senator unless they resign or the Magistrate and Imperator decides they are better fit for an other role in the family.

Magistrates elections are a private election. They are elected by the current magistrates and imperator with the final decision of the imperator. Elections are held whenever needed but will not be frequent. Magistrate is a very powerful and important role in the family and can not be decided upon lightly. The responsibility they are given is decided by the imperator together with the new appointed magistrate by looking what role needs to be filled and the personality of the elected magistrate member.

The Imperator elections are the only elections that are at fixed moments in time. These elections are public elections that will be held one time, every third month(four times per year). The candidates for this election are all the members of the magistrate that would like to become the new Dictator. This role can not be taken lightly in any way, becoming an imperator means you are responsible for the prosperity of the entire family.
