On September 30, 2023 the citizens of Volterra voted to adopt a new democratic constitution, putting to end the autocratic regency of the Red Duke, Mickale. While the former regime claimed otherwise, the referendum on democracy was the result of widespread agitation and unrest cause by pro-democracy activists across the nation. This agitation culminated when pro-democracy activists announced a bounty on Mickale, seized control of the senate buildings in Volterra Prime, and repelled an attack by state-backed forces in the early hours of September 30. Noted Micakle supporter [[ItzHoover|Hoover]] was killed during the battle for control the senate. Later the same day, a clash between the Volterran factions erupted in the Pavian rail station when pro-democracy activists were ambushed by the Red Dukes secret police during a trade mission. At 11:59PM on September 30, Mickale announced the results of the referendum on democracy and the start of democracy in Volterra. A central figure of the new republic was the position of Arbiter. The Arbiter is the primary owner of all Volterran groups and Discord while fulfilling all the responsibilities of Arbiter as outlined in the constitution. Any citizen was eligible to be voted in as the Arbiter and each citizen gets 1 vote during the election. Mickale was elected to the position of Arbiter on October 8, 2023.

After the state tax and payment to the Guild Leader, the remaining 70% of the proceeds is distributed to Guild Members according to the system determined by the Guild Leader. This system is approved by the Arbiter who can insist that the system be reorganized if the Arbiter is dissatisfied. In the event that the Guild Leader fails to establish a fair system, the Guild Leader can be removed from office by the Arbiter and loses eligibility to run for the position of Guild Leader for 28 days.
