Nice post. If i may suggest The ministry of Infrastructure. To oversee all Kingdom Size building operations and maintenance like roads, aquaducts, ports, castle all forts and such. Just my idea.
This was discussed, but not only are counts responsible for infrastructure, but kingdom wide infrastructure and building projects would likely be overly cumbersome to manage. This is an area we may revisit after exposition when we have a better idea of how things work, but for now there will not be a High Office established for this purpose.
Please continue to post any ideas or thoughts, they are appreciated.
Nice subdivision and specialisation of power. Seems a bit like the Swiss Bundesrat system ;) I am a fan of this system already!
I know the people appointed will do a great job and i hope i may help one or the other at some point in time :)
May Arkadia flourish by the dedicated work of our King Raziel, of all our future Ministers and of the People of Arkadia!
