Default Re: Exotic Governmental/Legal Systems

31. A monarchy in which one becomes king by marrying the daughter of the previous queen (who selects one of her daughters to be the next queen, often as her husband tells her to).

32. A democracy in which only women have the franchise.

33. A tricameral legislature in which two of the houses are voted for by the two ethnic groups while the third covers everyone else.

34. A system of men and not laws. Community judges (who are the only elected officials) are elected for a term that ends with death or a community vote in which 2/3s of the community vote to remove them. There are no codified laws, although judges usually take precedent and tradition into account when making rulings. Other decisions that don't involve criminalizing things are made by majority vote of the community.
