Icenia (CivClassic 2.0): Difference between revisions

During Icenia's period of inactivity there was little change in the Icenian government, so much so that the September 2020 election consisted of only 5 people running for judge, most at last minute. During the September election, DroidJoe would come out victorious, however once it was discovered he held government positions in Varkonia, the election went to a new player named Mason, who would become the first member of the Icenian Workers Party to pick up a seat in the Icenain Ministry. Things started to pick up in October and Novemember of 2020 with elections, with the elections of November 2020 seeing the most candidates running for Judge positons, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Ministry of the Interior.

Notably, Minister of Defense [[SoundTech]] was allowed to run for all three elected positions, throwing a wrench into the election. The hottest drama during the election however was the Naglafer v. Minemaster election for Minister of Interior with Minemaster running under the SNP (Stop Naglafer Party) and claiming that his opponent "did nothing for the Republic of Icenia". While [[Naglafer]] would go on to win this position, early in the election it seemed it would come down to a runoff because of SoundTech's existence in the race.

[[Charlieseeese]], a former citizen on Yoahtl and an Infinity War veteran would end up picking up the vacant seat for judge left by incumbent [[LordCheiftain]], who decided not to run for re-election. This position was highly contested though, with FreestyleJr, xDarkDiamond, and others nearly taking the position. Driving political discourse was [[Oniii_Chan]]'s, The Grand Judge of Icenia, schtick of stealing crafting tables from homes. Charlie would run on an anti-crafting table theft platform which tapped into the sentiments of many new players who had fallen victim to the crime. Despite the controvery, Oniii_Chan would sweep the election for Grand Judge, winning over 45% of all 1st place votes in Icenia.
