The Republic's military is one of the best funded and equipped militaries on the mainland. The average Guardsman has around 20,000 GP in equipment on him. They are trained in the use of a bastard sword and shield, Longbow and Shortbow. They are trained in group formations and fight best when in groups of at least 5. Military service is a career for life and all needs are paid for by the Stadt. Guardsmen in some circumstances may receive an honorable discharge from the Republic Guarde but are generally found a logistical or non combat role as they age. They receive a wage based on rank to cover their personal time and hobbies. Military is commonly a family tradition and the combat equipment is usually a family heirloom. The Guarde encourages at a certain point in a Guardsman’s career that he create a family and start training his children in the ways of combat at a young age to ensure future generations of well trained military. | The Republic's military is one of the best funded and equipped militaries on the mainland.

“The Republic” is a republic made of mostly humans but all races can be found some where thriving.
Contents

The republic shares a border with the dwarves elves and gnomes on one side and the other human civilizations on the other creating a barrier between them and the constant warring of orcs and goblins.

Cartels and Corrupt government officials are a common problem in the republic but once their infractions have been proven publically the military tribunals are swift and merciless. Bribery is not illegal in all of the Stadts and in some of them it is commonplace and culturally acceptable to do.
Government
Positions
Position (Term Limit)
- Grand Chancellor of the Republic (Life Term)
- Grand Chancellor (10 Years Consecutive)
- Chancellor (10 Years Consecutive)
- Representative (5 Years Consecutive)
- Mayor of “Name of City State” (5 Years )
- Speaker of “Name of District” (3 Years )
- Mayor/Director (2 Years )
- Councilman (1 Yrs)
The republic is subdivided into Federations made up of Stadts that contain Districts and City States Districts are divided into cities and townships.
The Grand Chancellor's rulings affect the entire republic. The title of Grand Chancellor of the republic is a special seat that can appoint republic wide positions as well as tie break any grand chancellor vote that is hung. He has the power to pardon any one before they are tried by military tribunal but only before the trial has begun.
Chancellors represent a single federation or group of Stadts that are in a contiguous group. Representatives represent their Stadt or a grouping of City States and Districts. Speakers of District represent their district Mayors are leaders of cities in a district and Directors are leaders of a township in a district. Councilmen are the leaders of a local community in a city or township.
The Mayors of city states are elected in different ways and have similar powers to that of the Grand Chancellor of the Republic within their given city state but have an election cycle of 5 years.
All positions are voted on by the individuals that hold power 1 level lower in the Republic. Citizens elect council members council members elect the Mayors, Mayors elect Speakers, Mayors of City states and Speakers elect representatives, representatives elect Chancellors and chancellors elect Grand Chancellors.
At the time of the death of a “Grand Chancellor of the Republic” all chancellors and Grand Chancellors elect the next “Grand Chancellor of the Republic”
The election process and government styles within city states may differ from the rest of the republic but are federally represented and ruled in the same way, federal laws tend to be loosely applied in those areas as well.
Laws
New laws are brought to a given level of government where the people would like to see change with a large tax that scales with the area that wants to have the legal change applied to it.
Whole Republic 5,000,000 GP Stadt 1,000,000 GP District 500,000 GP City 250,000 GP
This money ends up in that level of government's treasury and is used to run that level of government's responsibility in that area. For example at a city level pay the police at a Stadt level pay for the military.
It is a common but more expensive tactic to pass laws in multiple lower levels instead of the single higher level because it is easier to get the same law put through with a smaller group that have less angry constituents that may hire someone to assassinate them.
Laws may be passed to levy taxes on a regular schedule but are generally rare and temporary in the republic as private enterprise runs most services available. If you have the coin you can get whatever you want in the republic.
Military (The Republic Guarde)
The Republic military functions as the Police, Military and Judicial services of the republic. Young volunteers join the police they are recruited into the military ranks as a guardsman and if they survive their career in the military, the rank of Ensign or higher will be summoned as judges of a military tribunal. The military tribunal has a panel of 3, 5, 7 judges depending on the severity of the crime.

The Republic's military is one of the best funded and equipped militaries on the mainland. The average Guardsman has around 20,000 GP in equipment on him. They are trained in the use of a bastard sword and shield, Longbow and Shortbow. They are trained in group formations and fight best when in groups of at least 5. Military service is a career for life and all needs are paid for by the Stadt. Guardsmen in some circumstances may receive an honorable discharge from the Republic Guarde but are generally found a logistical or non combat role as they age. They receive a wage based on rank to cover their personal time and hobbies. Military is commonly a family tradition and the combat equipment is usually a family heirloom. The Guarde encourages at a certain point in a Guardsman’s career that he create a family and start training his children in the ways of combat at a young age to ensure future generations of well trained military.
The Republic Guarde is a volunteer service but is a in most cases a lifetime commitment. It is not exclusionary by race or gender but the individuals need to meet the same minimum requirements to serve. In almost all cases being a local police for an area is a required but other forms of learning basic combat and law prior to enlisting is acceptable.
Due to the family tradition around military service the relatively expensive gear a foot soldier carriers is not a large concern, many households have their own alterations they make or may have better than the standard issued equipment but it must meed the regulator standards to be used. This ensures that all military commanders know the bare minimal the can expect from an individual Guardsman.
