One of the Uhryu apprentices from Gultor’uf arrives and state.
Gultor’uf has seen the rise of the UTR, and of other groups. So far, this has lead to militarization and the killing of many gogs. These gogs, because they weren’t in large tribes and didn’t want to fall control of others. Right now our Uhryu, Bill, is working on helping these disenfranchised gogs rebuild what was destroyed. What is even worse, it that the leaders of the tribes seem to show little want to take responsibility for there actions, foisting most of it on Gultor’uf.
These tragedies need to be avoided.
The enslavement of others is a crime against those who are enslaved or impressed, Gultor’uf would want slavery to be illegal. We recognize to do this, we would destroy the livelihoods of some tribes, so if we were to join we would want to have a plan to transition all tribes away from slavery. This would most likely be finding an easier way to survive without the use of slaves for all tribes.
With the rising of the UTR, the tribe has witnessed power become concentrated into a few hands. This will lead to the eventual downfall of any government we put in place. To prevent this we need to set up a government that balances each part against each other.
Each of our tribes lives in a different area, with many other tribes around us. We have different cultures, and different ways of solving problems. In karov, we either have rapitor or a concil decide issue, in brez it is a claw vs claw fight. To enforce ones way of solving on another would just cause strife.
To solve most of the issues I see, I believe we will need several different groups to take different positions in this government.
Army -> the ones to train and order gogs in battle, such as the coming one against mag mag gor.
Teacher -> provide education for all gogs, in history, leyas, survival skills, and anything else.
Council of elders -> in matter of justice, we will need to have several gogs decide who followed the laws and who didn’t it would be this group to decide who based on the facts
Warehouses -> these are gogs that will store the excess items goods and food we have
Distributors -> these gogs would gather the excess goods from each tribes and give them the goods they need
Law Makers -> no matter how good we are, we will fail at some things, these gogs would change the rules and laws we made to fit with the times
Enforcers -> this gogs would police the towns and act as arbiters of the law between tribes.
craftsmen -> this is the group that would produce items for the rest of the tribes, help show whats needed
gatherers -> the gogs responsible for the food.
This would be at the highest level, dealing with things that deal with all tribes. It should prevent corruption because one branch needs the support of others to survive. If the army unjustly attacks some other tribe, the gatherers, craftsment, and warehouse could stop providing them with needed equipment and food. if the council of elders makes unjust laws, the enforcers can stop enforcing them. I believe this is the only way to prevent corruption.
In each area, like Karov, we could have the current way of doing things, transitioning into a smaller version of the large governments. By smaller, I mean in number of gogs involved, and not in divisions. This group would deal with issues between tribes in karov.
At each tribe level, each tribe can have there own setup. This should be fine, especially if we help everyone transition to a better way of living.
I would also suggest we ask Talocal to send a representative, knowledgeable in other tries to from a government, and what the old government was like. Their knowledge could help us avoid mistakes of the past.
As with everything, this will take some planning to do it right. Let us do this correctly and become a beacon of hope for the olgogs of refuge.
