https://warosu.org/vt/thread/S18539186#p18552774>we need to make sure there are two things in place to make sure it works. 1) a meritocratic system that incentivizes each region to advance and share their wisdom with each other. 2) a way to test said wisdom, ideally via experimentation of different policies. what systems can you think of to those effects?Well. Founder already wrote that.
According to Founder's story
https://rentry.org/vtwbg-meatreturn"The Rightfully Won Champion of the Althing Game of Wit and Zeal;
Chosen One; Blessed One;
The Great Realm Speaker of All Abottoir;
The Wisest of the Nahualli;
The Strongest of the Vikingr;"
"For in every land, shall they be the workers and the scholars. Soldiers and priests. The society of two, of the soft hand and the hard hand.
For in every land, shall we be led by the faithful. Of an Abottoir. Who shall maintain and enforce the law of the Gods.
For each Abottoir, the gifted among gifted shall be chosen. The wisest of the wise, the strongest of the strong. To lead Fellows of The Places where their talents blossom and bear fruit.
For each leader of the Fellows of The Places, one of greatest mind, body, and soul will be chosen. To become the King of Kings, the Priest of Priests, and the Blessed Mouth of the Gods themselves. The Champion of the Althing Game of Wit and Zeal; the Rikitlatoani"
I will based the thing assembly proposal based of this and our old lore here
https://warosu.org/vt/thread/S18539186#p18552115Each district will be specialised in a specific field. Each leader is elected bottom-up through things.
Someone from the intelligentsia class becomes a priest-mayor for a town abattoir. With enough merit, he gets elected as the leader for the county. Then the state. Then the country as the Stadrtlatoani. And when he becomes the leader of his state, he's in charge of supervising his area of expertise throughout the alliance.
To become the Rikittlatoani however is much more complicated. They have to prove themselves with knowledge and have military experience.
It's established that /meat/ allows transition of caste. From freemen to slaves, from slaves to free, from soldiers to scholars, mages to labourers.
>exchange of class should one's family is deemed worthy or unworthy. A lowborn labour family could be a merchant tomorrow, a noble today could be fertilizer next week.>Sholo is a curious category, one that is sometimes dismissed by opponents of the system as a fabrication for propaganda purpose. It comprises the majority of slaves who willingly allow themselves to be enslaved, but are deemed insufficient to be wentli or awiyani for any reasons.So the Rikittlatoani is chosen from someone who walked through both caste. As a soldier/marine/viking and as a priest/scholar/mage. Worked as a laeknir, fought as a vikingr, etc.
The balance of mind and body.
