EO Internal Government

Introduction
Prior to 1989, EO operated under a provisional military government, as it consolidated power and stability in the newly secured San Francisco Bay Area, it eventually, in 1989, adopted what was referred to as the "Ministerial Model" of government, in which EO would create a distinction between military detachments (E1-9), and have each territory governed by a hand appointed cabinet of ministers, each of which would report to the Central Ministry in New Francisco. The primary ministries appointed to the Central Ministry are as follows: The Ministry of Prospecting & Scavenging, The Ministry of Infrastructure & Civic Management, The Ministry of Commerce & Logistics, and The Ministry of Reclamation.
The Ministry of Prospecting & Scavenging
The Ministry of Prospecting & Scavenging (MPS) is the governing body in charge of surveying possible resource rich sections of urban environments, and ordering scavenging missions in said surveyed areas, primarily for power and common tools, firearms, non-perishable food and drinks, preserved electronics, and useful metals (Steel, Copper, etc), and most importantly, Car Harvesting, and other forms of fuel scavenging. Because of this the MPS is usually jointly operated with the Bay California Caravan in scavenging missions, though in territories without the Bay California Caravan present, the MPS operates independently when it comes to urban scavenging.
The Ministry of Infrastructure & Civic Management (MIC)
The Ministry of Infrastructure & Civic Management (MIC) is the governing body that is in charge of the management and administration of EO controlled settlements
