Utopia, Part 3: Zusammenfassung

Was geschieht

1. Thirty families elect a Philarch each year, and each group of ten Syphogrants comes under an Archphilarch.
2. Two hundred Syphogrants secretly elect the Prince from four publicly nominated candidates after swearing to choose the best person.
3. The Prince serves for life unless removed on suspicion of seeking to enslave the people; other magistrates face annual elections.
4. Tranibors consult the Prince every third day, while two Syphogrants attend the council and change daily.
5. Public decisions require debate on three separate days, and unauthorized meetings about state affairs carry a death penalty.
6. Major questions receive wider consultation, and discussion waits until another meeting to discourage rashness and defensive pride.
