Kartika: Difference between revisions

Line 69:

At the time of the establishment of the [[Confederal Republics of Kiravia]] Kartika was a mere {{wp|hamlet}} of 22 houses scattered among and around the half-ruined fortifications. The Founding Fathers of the Confederal Republics agreed that while [[Valēka#Cantons|West Valēka]] would be the seat of the Confederal Stanora (standing legislative body), Executive College, military command, and judiciary, the ''Ɣaramduv'', a legislative body assembled at the vernal and autumnal equinoxes chiefly for the purpose of passing a budget, would meet somewhere in the Míhanska Bay region. By agreement between Ventarya and Hanoram, one of the two sessions each year would be held in Arþodun and the other in Éamonsar. The ''Ɣaramduv'' began holding its Hanoram-side sessions in Kartika in [YEAR] after being run out of the much nicer nearby town of Éamonsar for bad behaviour. It budgeted itself funds for the construction of a proper meeting hall there, and Kartika would go on to accrete further government-related facilities and attendant shops and taverns over the course of the Confederal Period, though it remained an otherwise unremarkable Baylands small town.

When the [[Constitutional History of Kiravia|new Fundamental Stature was adopted]], ushering in the Kiravian Federal Republic and the Federal Era of Kiravian history, Valēka had emerged as the unchallenged economic and cultural capital of Kiravia, and it was agreed that the country was in need of a new political capital to prevent centralisation of power in a single city and state. As part of this process, Kartika, Éamonsar, and Arþodun, along with a pentagonal area of the surrounding countryside, were (consensually) excised from their respective states to form the federally-administered [[District of Coīnvra]]. It was at this point that Kartika was first formally chartered as a municipal entity. An intensive effort in civil engineering and urban planning followed, involving riverbank reinforcement, swamp drainage, and the construction of grand(ish) edifices to house the precious organs of the federal government.

From its refounding, Kartika has been an independent city within the District of Coīnvra, and is administratively separate from the surrounding Coīnvra Countyship and the adjacent City of Éamonsar. The municipal legislature is the City Council (Kiravic: ''Saarkovar''), which comprises six seats for each electoral ward and two at-large seats. The entire council is subject to ~~bienniel~~ reëlection. The city's chief executive is the Provost, elected triennially. Political parties are banned in the District of Coīnvra, and all candidates must stand as independents.
