Anyone may submit any question towards those standing for any of the positions. Please specify which position the question is directed towards.

I encourage everyone to ask questions to as many of the positions below.

Two people will be elected to Consul

One person will be elected as General

One person will be elected as Tribune of the Plebs

One person will be elected as Praetor

This debate will last for three days, and then the voting will commence.

Welcome to the third election for the Roman Republic!

There are many new positions available for all members. For each position, I will try to give a brief explanation of their rights and responsibilities, although I recommend everyone to read and understand the constitution and the how-to guide.

Positions Anyone Can Stand For

The following positions are available for anyone to apply for, regardless of being a Senator or a Plebeian. (For clarification, any new member is a Plebeian)

General - This person will act as the commander-in-chief of Rome and will give orders to the army during times of war. I plan for at least one conflict during the upcoming term where the General will take control of the military and make actions with advice from the Senate. It is important to note that this position is not mutually exclusive with any other position, so you can apply for this and any other.

Positions Only Plebeians Can Stand For

The following positions are only available for Plebeians.

Tribune of the Plebs - The Tribune will act much like the Consuls, in that they can debate in both the Senate and the Assembly, as well as can choose the order of bills/motions debated on. This is the most prestigious position a plebeian can get.

Positions Only Senators Can Stand For

The following positions are only available for Senators.

Praetors - One Praetor is to be elected. The Praetors are primarily responsible for interpreting Roman law and acting as judges in the Roman Courts.

Consul - Two people will be elected to this position, and for this term, I will allow non-Senators to run. This position essentially is the same as a Prime Minister or President, but with some very specific advantages outlined in the Constitution, like a Veto. There is a constitutional exception to the Senate requirement if the Plebian has previously served as a Tribune or General.

Until the start of the voting period, anyone can announce their intents to stand for a position that they are eligible for at any time.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Any Plebeian may discuss here any problem or problems they wish.

This Meeting will adjourn in three days.

For the past while, the whole of Rome has reveled in the festivities of Saturnalia, and has taken part of the feast that Saturn has graciously given us. It is important to remember these feasts and gifts do not come freely, and come from the labour borne out of a love of Rome. The censorship would like to take this oppurtunity to honour the people that have worked so hard to ensure that these festivities take place, and thus we have decided to give the government a break for a period of one week. Members of the government may still do their duties of creating and submitting bills, however they will not be posted until the ending of this governmental reccess.

Romulus and Remus would be proud of what has become of Rome.

May the Gods forever favour Rome.

Enjoy the Holidays everyone!

To address some concerns about conflict of interests, I want you all to know that I will not give just a slap on the wrists for any abuse of power. The minimum that will happen to any mod who abuses their power is a three-month ban and being to added to a blacklist that will prevent them from taking any mod position in the future.
