Attribution (Realm Colonization)

Attribution is a part in the process of colonizing a realm. as the name suggests, attribution refers to the steps in order for a lord divisionary to award a claim to a realm or parts of a realm to one or several claimants.
== Procedure ==
Who gets to colonize a realm follows strict guidelines, as the initial claim doesn't necessarily go to the nation which discovered it. Indeed, elected kingdoms, kurats, regions, companies and sometimes individuals can claim a realm as their own property regardless of geographical or even spatial proximity. The attribution is up to the discretion of the lord divisionary, who calculates which individual or local authority is legally (based on jurisprudence) the most needful of a realm colony. The lord divisionary also takes into account the nationality of the research team that led to the discovery, but it isn't rare that based on necessity the nation that employs the team doesn't get unanimous claim to the realm, but is most often allowed to participate in its colonization. 
== Divisionary report ==
The lord divisionary then produces a report on who is most deserving, and the applicants that have staked a claim can contest the decision in a court of law. if no contestants are found worthy, the Realm is to the discretion of the Empire.
The report determines the number of contestants, Imperial city states and independents as well as the conditions for colonizing the realm.
The lord divisionary chooses contestants based on:
* Their ranking in administrative power (Chieftain, Warlord, Prince regent, King, Elected King)
* The length of the initial lease of colonization (from 250 days to 15 centuries) period after which the hostilities between competing contestants must stop.
* The level of clearance for the technologies to be deployed during colonization if there are other races on the realm or severally underpowered stake claimers.
The lord divisionary also decides:
* The starting positions of the contestants.
* If several factions from a same administrative subdivision can be present (Ie. duplicate complex)
* Finally, the lord divisionary can decide if technological development are to be shared amongst contestants or kept to themselves without possibility of sharing.
