- Nuvaria, the 'Citadel of Capitalism'
- Nuvaria is envisioned as a neutral corporatocracy, or plutocratic city-state, which revolves around one activity: business.
- Without the burdens of traditional alliances and governments or the regulations of a moral minority, business flourishes. A city built by corporations to be an economic bastion of trade, research and manufacturing; a 'Citadel of Capitalism' devoted to the corporations headquartered within, destined to become one of the most prodigious spaceports and hubs of technological innovation in the universe.
- Nuvaria is essentially a timocracy; a corporation's membership, or voting rights, are determined by ownership of a permitted construct within the declared territory. The Nuvarian Council is responsible for city-planning and issuing construct permits.
- The Nuvarian Council:
- Council Elder(s), Keeper(s) of Nuvaria:
- ⦁ Each founding corp. may hold one seat, an equal number of permit holding corps w/ highest gross investment in the city may hold one seat each.
- ⦁ 'Keepers of Nuvaria,' charged with holding the assets/credits/permissions/'keys to the kingdom'; but required to facilitate the council's will in regard to these holdings.
- ⦁ Elder's hold no voting power and are not expected or required to participate in routine government proceedings, but may still bring forward motions and exert their opinions.
- Council Chairman:
- ⦁ Each permit holding corp. may put forward one representative/platform.
- ⦁ Elected by the council, quarterly, if a motion to replace the current chairman is passed.
- ⦁ Chairman will lead council proceedings and represent the public face or speaker of the council.
- ⦁ Allowed to exert opinion and put forward new motions, but may only vote as tie-breaker.
- ⦁ Chairman holds the power of veto, but may be overriden by a successful 2/3rd council vote.
- Corporate Councilor(s):
- ⦁ Each permit holding corp. may hold one seat with potential voting power.
- ⦁ Voting power is determined by quarterly IPO or stock offering; permit holding corps. may invest in unlimited shares each quarter which will determine their voting power within the council, shares will reset each quarter.
- ⦁ Councilors may vote, bring forth new motions and exert their opinions.
