Type of Government
Silicia's Government is a Democratic Republic in which representatives are voted into office by Silician Citizens.
Roles of government officials
Representatives in office are referred to as Advocates. Each advocate represents a group of people, and are elected by the group of people they represent. The job of an advocate is to ensure that the groups of individuals they represent are treated fairly under existing laws, and considered in the discussion of new laws. The Advocate of Silicia is the figurehead of the Silician Government, and represents all Silician Citizens. Example of Advocacy roles are listed below:
- The Silician Advocate - Advocates for all of Silicia, and is in charge of maximizing happiness for Silician Citizens.
- Advocate for Farmers - Represents farmers and those interested in farming as a lifestyle. Helps ensure farming resources are available
- Advocate of Defense - In charge of Silicia's Military and guaranteeing safety from threats outside the Silician Border
- Advocate for the Less Fortunate - Helps those with fewer means ensure they have resources available to meet the basic necessities of life like food, shelter, and safety.
- Advocate of Health - Ensures that healthcare is available to all those that need it
- Advocate for LGBTQ+ Rights - Representative of individuals who identify under different sexualities and gender orientations.
There are potential of many more roles to be added. In the event that advocacy is not available, the Silician Advocate assumes the role until it can be officially filled.
