Fiction:Cylone Government and Politics

The Cylone Government is based on a pyramidal structure. Each pyramid has 4 points: The Commander, who knows the names of all 3 of those beneath him/her and gives them orders; Base 1, who knows one of the other bases names, as well as the Commanders name, and one person from another pyramid; Base 2, who knows one of the other bases names, as well as the Commanders name, and one person from another pyramid; and Base 3, who knows one of the other bases names, as well as the Commanders name, and one person from another pyramid. This method of government prevents widespread betrayal and compromise of secrecy by limiting each traitor to 3 names. Granted, with these 3 names a traitor could take down the entire system, but they would have to get each and every name from each and every person they investigate, so it isn't realistic. This form of government is also self-damage reporting: it allows another to figure out just how big the breach in security is, and that allows for an efficient and swift clean up of the breach.
