The Government of the High Dominion

The dominion hawever, is different from other strongman ruled nations in that it is the quintessential benevolent dictatiorship. The Falas enjoy, a strong economy and generally good civil rights, they simply lack any political freedoms whatsoever. This set-up appears acceptable to the people as there has not been an attempt to overthrow the government since the first High Chancellor lead the Revolution of the Dominion 60 years ago.
