Fiction:Excoquin Chancellorship

The Excoquin Chancellorship is a rather new empire, with a lot of tech.

History
The Excoquin Chancellorship dates back to the industrial revolution of the Excoquin race, when it was formed in order to govern new potential and set more solid laws. At this time, each city was an individual state, but they were all united under the leadership of the first two Chancellors. They put in laws, and wrote the Tomes of Enlightenment, an important book that contained Aesops, a record of ancient Excoquin history, and the first laws of the Excoquin Chancellorship. It was stored away in the capitol of their largest city. Across nearly 2 centuries, they evolved their technology, brought in new laws, and eventually colonized other planets. They currently control their home system, and have a few other colonies in various systems around them

Government
The Chancellorship is run by two Chancellors at a time, chosen from a pool of candidates. The citizens vote on these candidates, and the 2 with the most votes become the Chancellors. They must agree on new laws and other decisions, such as war, but they also have individual jobs. One will deal with more citizen-based matters, while the other deals with relations with other empires. Both have equal control of the military.
