# The Terrean Commonwealth as a Government

## Governmental Structure

Terrean Commonwealth is a federal government, much like Russia or USA in our world. However instead of being split into self governing states or republics it is split into regions. These regions called "Commonwealths" are split up with language, ethnicity, economy and religious population in mind. For example Scandinavia which is Commonwealth 2 is united that way because all the languages are very similar and the economies being similar if not exactly the same during the unification of the Terrean Commonwealth in 2021.

## **Legislature**

The Terrean Commonwealth functions as a Directorship the leader basically being like a company's CEO.

It uses a hybrid system of Autocracy and Democracy where the natural process is that a Lead Director simply takes up the mantle after the former one steps down. But if the current Lead Director is showing horrible results or are abusing their power a case is brought upon them. If this case is lost and the person is deemed unfit a general election is held on the half a year mark that given year. 6th of June or the 6th of December.

Depending which Commonwealth you are from the legal age for voting is 16, 18 or 21. Anyone above that age can vote without exception. The higher the population of a given region the higher the voting age is, as to normalize the global voting population.

This page is dedicated to the Lead Directors of the Northern Hemisphere Union and the Terrean Commonwealth.

Terrean and NHU leaders could be both democratically elected and ally appointed depending on the situation. If a Lead Director is acting unsatisfactory towards the public and the commonwealth a case is submitted and an election is held on the 6th of June or the 6th of December that year.

They are on the same placement on the hierarchy as the Lead Directors of the Lunar and Martian commonwealths.

# The NHU as a government

The NHU was not fully democratic it was rather a blend of Bureaucracy, Autocracy & some Democracy. The Administrators of the NHU served as its leader and was at the top of the hierarchy. There could however be held a miss trust, where the Admin would be questioned and held for trial. If considered incompetent or vile they would be changed with another. Later in its lifespan the NHU started holding more democratic elections for the Admin.
