One species. One Republic. One vigil. The Republic is structured for clarity of command, meritocratic advancement, and the parallel column of the Holy Office. Three views below — pick one to begin.

Visual diagram of the entire Republic.
The single-page chart: Consul Primus, Consilium, ten Praetoriae, eight Cohortes, and the parallel Holy Office. Solid lines for command, dashed for doctrine.
View →Hierarchy
The eight ranks, in detail.
From Tiro (Recruit) to Consul Primus (First Consul). The horizontal rank ladder applies across all Branches. Includes the parallel Holy Office ladder.
View →Directorates
The ten Praetoriae, in detail.
Eight vertical Directorates, each owning a Branch and an operational domain. Two horizontal Directorates that cut across the whole organisation.

- Clarity of command. Every member knows their Officer; every Officer knows their Commander; every Commander knows their Director; every Director answers to the First Consul.
- Specialisation through Branches. Each in-game discipline (combat, industry, exploration, engineering, medical, logistics, intelligence, communications) has a dedicated Branch with its own Directorate.
- Uniform rank ladder. The same rank structure applies across all Branches — a Commander of Industry and a Commander of Operations hold equivalent rank and inter-operable authority.
- Doctrinal parallelism. The Holy Office is not inside the command chain. It runs alongside and answers directly to the First Consul, so that doctrine cannot be silenced by operational convenience.
- Meritocracy, not popularity. Promotion, demotion, Branch transfer, and Directorate assignment are determined by demonstrated contribution, doctrinal fidelity, and command recommendation — not by voting.
- Lean organs at the top. High Command is ten Directors, the Commissar-General, and the First Consul. No committee larger than necessary.
