Unlike the now united Deca, the entire Pagona continent was a singular nation. Values such as monarchy and autocracy had already been replaced by an amiable version of democracy.
Instead of elections, the country ran on merit factions. Each civilian after turning of age had to join one of the six callings or guilds where they'd stay until the retirement age of 125 earth years. Namely, they were the Agrarians, Artisans, Merchants, Wardens, Scholars, and Navigators.
Each calling had its own way of internal ruling, but every decade, they would select several individuals to form a united government to govern Pagona.
There were processes by which the selection would occur, like the candidates must have at least five years of public service records where they worked under their calling to help the common folks.
