Tavaris: Difference between revisions

Tavaris is divided into 12 provinces for the purpose of civil administration. The provinces are units of civil government established by the Diet, with the current system established by the Province Reorganization Act of 1961. While most power in civil government resides with the national government in Nuvrenon, the provinces have the power to set income taxes, regulate certain businesses and industries, and establish public school systems, among other responsibilities. Each province elects a unicameral Legislative Council, from which a government headed by a First Councillor is appointed.

 

 

The Province of [[Rodoka]] has a special arrangement due to the status of the native Rodokans. The Treaty of Sinajärv signed in 1634 between the Tavari government and the Rodokan tribes integrated the island of Rodoka and all the Rodokan tribes into the Kingdom of Tavaris. Certain areas of the island were reserved specifically for tribal use, including most of the northern “branch” of the island. These reserved areas remain and are today governed by the Rodokan Native Tribal Administration, a body composed of representatives from the twenty tribes. The reservation is able to set its own tax rate and regulate businesses and construction in its own territory. Notably, things that are illegal in the rest of Tavaris, such as gambling or cannabis, are legal on the reservation.
