Category:Government Overview

The Cemaat or the Primes The UAS government is composed of a council or assembly of 17 elected representatives who compose the core of the UAS government. They represent the corner stone of the government and guide policies for the UAS as a whole. Hundreds of smaller Cemaat's are present in every enclave or mini-phyla associated with the UAS to provide individual leadership to those in the area. These things include distribution of healthcare and food, military protection and Nioome support for the populace. Any interesting feature that is present in the Cemaat or the Primes as they have been known is the breakdown of numbers.

A principle beholden by the UAS since its inception as the early Cemaat is the idea of being indivisible. After the first Cemaat of 6 members were stuck in deadlock over initial policies, a seventh member was added. This was known as the Prime Numbers Principle. The PNP states that any council must be composed of members that complete a prime number. This new policy was also coupled with the Civil Responsibility Clause which prevented Cemaat members from Abstaining on voting and having their current votes, as well as passed votes logged in the archive.

The PNP has helped the UAS move forward on a lot of divisive issues that would have other wise been stuck on the table. With all Primes required to vote, a majority was always reached, thus nothing was left on the table. Election for Primary Cemaat members take place every 5 years with minor Cemaat members up for re-election every 3. With the expansion of mediated reality, the easy of researching information on the Nioome, election season lasts just a couple of months, instead of the near constant cycle as seen in western democracies of the previous century. This appropriates maximum legislative time for the government and allows for the passage numerous laws and reforms in a timely manner.
