Thanks for your wishes and critique.


  1. Each of this 100 people represent thousands of people (okay not now but maybe one day). It is therefore quite a large organisation!

  2. We clearly need to be able to act fast. All Members of the High Council will be part of the government and will be able to act in crisis. The Consuls rule.

  3. The central conflict in the 'democracy' is that, if small players are elected in the government they can not act (in some cases) without the large players. Therefore we have the Senate. They need to coordinate in some cases and in a war centralised decisions are important.

  4. However, Illy is not a war game! And if there is a war we have the Minister of War who will coordinate and command.

  5. I founded this alliance to be able to participate in the decisions of my alliance. Therefore I wanted a representative AND participatory system because I want everyone to be able to participate.

  6. Also the political conflicts and election going on in the alliance will be an amusement in itself. Therefore we need a slightly more complicated system to give the institutional base for some conflicts and elections.

  7. Players in this alliance will have the possibility to learn more quickly about the world of Illy. That is because they have the possibility to use this knowledge and they are informed about the decisions of the High Council. The game will be more interesting for small players and the large, active and experienced players will have a lot of weight anyway. Also experienced players will explain their reasons and convince the others.

  8. To tell me a democracy is a discriminating process and argue for a authoritarian/royal style of government is properly a joke?

  9. Finally, we will not vote on every decision in the General Assembly. It should rather work the other way around. If there is an interest among the majority of players there can be a poll in the General Assembly.


I think it will work! Everyone is welcome! Also large players! We now have not elected the government. Therefore you can still join in high positions (if you get elected...).


Have fun!

@kurfist: I do not understand this question.

Maybe the illy community should create something like the UN (based on different alliances and not players)? NATO is an alliance. The Southern League would be something like the Nato. In NATO the general secretary is also elected somehow...

Three announcements:
1. We have renamed our alliance to “the Old Republic” [Rep]!

2. You do not need to be located in the south/alliance focus is moved to all of Illyriad, in order to attract more members.

3. We are currently voting on the founding document of our alliance in our new forum (that has included polls).


This Republic is not only interesting for small players (that have the benefit of being included and informed on all decisions), but also for larger, more active and experienced players (since 1. we have the Senate, that is particularly attractive for larger players and 2. it offers an excellent perspective to exchange information/thoughts/strategies/foreign affairs and all other important issues of Illyriad, in an active and friendly community). We are urgently looking for active players, that have at the moment excellent opportunities to be elected in high offices.

The name has been chosen by the majority of members. It has been chosen, because everybody will know what this alliance is about and we are in a fantasy setting of this game.
