## The Grand Ermandian Commonwealth

The **Grand Ermandian Commonwealth** was founded on June 6th, 2023, in the world of Eldham. Although it was technically ran by NotMrToast for a few months, semi-unofficially. It has a unique ideology of a sort of Socialist Democracy, with town members voting on Deputy mayors, Mayors, and Representatives all to represent their town/providence in the higher Ministry.

## The Ministry / Government

The Government has many different positions with different positions/jobs in the nation. This includes the local and Federal groups, each with different ideals and goals.

### The Local / Regional Government

The Regional government consists of a sort of downscales edition of the larger Ermandian Nation Government. It has a few members, with the following roles:

* Mayor: Leader of town. They are in charge of growing their local region to the best of their ability, with the help of the Representative / Minister, and the Deputy Mayors.
* Deputy Leader: The helper of the Mayor. They control only halve of the town, and will work separately on smaller tasks that the Mayor cannot attend or bother. There are usually 2 or more of these officials per town.
* Judge: See Judicial Section of the Ermandian Government.

* Representative / Minister: These roles are voted in by their citizens, and they try to pass favorable laws in the National Government, that would benefit their town.

Each of these roles play an important part of the local Government, and help keep the Federal Government concentrated on National issues and not local ones.

### The Ministry Granduer / Higher Ministry

The Ministry Granduer is a group of Ministers that are appointed by the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State. There are many different minor and major Minister roles, that all are different but still important. Each role / sector is a major part of the Nation that a Minister Granduer will oversee, so the Prime Minister must be careful with choosing who he trusts. The many different Ministries will be listed now, along with their Minister as of now.

* The Ministry of Treasury: Mr. Gramps.
* The Ministry of Infrastructure: Felis Leo.
* The Ministry of Broadcast / News: Felis Leo.
* The Ministry of Immigration: Anzug Staples.

* The Ministry of Foreign Sales / Income: N/A Currently

The Ministry Granduer, as mentioned before, has many more minor roles that cannot be listed here.

### Ministry Minuer

The Ministry Minuer includes 2 separate Groups with different goals. First, there is the Ministry of Representatives, which as listed earlier in the Regional Government, is tasked with representing their town in the Federal Government. Second, there is the Ministry of Minimo, which is simply Ministers that still consist of the Federal Government, but fill in no role / Sector currently. Both groups have equal voting levels, being able to vote on most things except for those more important. The only difference is that the Representatives cannot be promoted without giving up any and all loyalty to their home town / region, and swearing to care only for the nation as a whole.

### The Judicial Sector

The Judicial sector includes any and all Federal / Regional Court roles. This sector has many, many jobs, all tasked with different roles. However, there is one easy way we can divide this. The Important roles, and side roles.

##### Important Roles:

* Grand Judge | This role is the Judge that fills in the Federal Court, which consists of major cases. They may also preside at Local cases if the Regional Judge is absent, unable to attend, or is found to be unabiding by the legal restrictions of the Court. ( I.e Interrogations, Bribing, Personal Motive, etc.) They also
* Judicial Minister | Runs the Judicial Sector as a whole.
* Jury | Necessary for the Regional Court to run. A local group that determines the punishment for the citizen, (If proven guilty).

* Regional Judge | They handle court cases in Regions / Towns, that the Federal Court cannot bother with.

##### Side Roles

* Government Lawyer | A lawyer that can be given via the Government if you cannot afford your own. This is for both ends of the Court case.
* Judicial Security | Handles the prisoners if they attempt to leave, keeps Courtroom under control, etc.

## History

Although Ermandia is quite new, there is still some history we can overlay that has occurred already. Note that this sector will be minimal for now, but will expand later.

On June 6th, 2023, the nations of Crestville and Ermandia merged, inheriting the name of Ermandia. The leader of Crestville was decided to lead the new Merged nation, and their 2 towns of Crestville and Ermandia (Again) merged into the new town of Montagne. As the month passed, they began filling up the Government, and the island, with new buildings. Although most of the isle is still empty, about half of it has been filled with apartments of the Victorian era design. During this buildup, the nation of Nakavia across the sea allied with them, and they forged a new multinational alliance of nations, called the Aquino Commonwealth, which currently includes the nations of Nakavia, Ermandia, Guardian Seas, and Westport. They also offered to the nation of Zerkalo membership, but no official reply has come yet. (Note that although there is no official yes or no, Zerkalo has been in contact with the Aquine Commonwealth and her members often.) Although progress has been slowed significantly by Mark Staples’ frequent vacations and/or breaks from Stoneworks, Ermandia has shot up in record time. Currently, they are an unofficial vassal of Costa Stellare, which is getting their help to build up in exchange for a future chance at becoming an official vassal. This unofficial vassalage has been set to run for a month, with both governments deciding whether or not to stay together at the end of the month.
