House confederation.
Re: House confederation.
*pulls out Latin dictionary*
Yard in Latin is Tripedalis. Since we're a confederation of 3 minor houses, this would further reinforce such a name.
That's just an idea of course. House Yardis (with an S, since we're plural) is also fine.

Re: House confederation.
Right.
Order of Ducal Rotation for House Yardis?
Tosha-Straylight -> Annexis -> Mortis?
1 month term? or is that to long, to short?

Re: House confederation.
So, how about holding the duke title in commission? 1/3 to each minor house head. The right to exercise the office could either rotate when there is a new Kaiser, or after a certain amount of time. We would all get the title Duke Commissioner.

Re: House confederation.
I was thinking something longer than just one month; but that's a personal preference. Whatever works for the rest of you is fine.
As for holding the title in commission - isn't that what we're already doing with the rotation? Each household head is still a Duke in their own rights, but the actual confederation head would rotate among them. If we want to differentiate who is holding the confederation head position from among the others, then I suppose we could adopt a different (e.g. Duke Magnus) title.

Re: House confederation.
We get one exercising Duke, not three. There is just one title, hence the 1/3rd
thing. It would be weird and fun.

Re: House confederation.
Mike explained it to me last night. I like it.. it's nice and confusing!
1 Kaiser's reign would be about 3 months. And could be acceptable. While a house holds the title they can move it around among their house, name "heirs" as long as they control it. When we get a new Kaiser the title would be active for another house.
So, 3 Duke Commissioners, but one of them is the Ruling Duke Commissioner.
And I'm not sure I'm keen on Yardis anymore. I think I'd prefer something fresh. So we aren't just making Yardistan again.

Re: House confederation.
What the hell am I gonna do with power and glory? It's not like I could be Kaiser. No one wants that and I have other citizenships anyway. I'd rather not being a voting member of the Landsraad, that's always been a pain and I'm certainly no legislator. I'll have the praetorship and Asantelian, that's plenty.Kaiser Mors VI wrote:Corey, join us. It could mean power and glory.

Re: House confederation.
Looks like a solid draft. That being said...
House Mortis is having some reservations about that, due to the matter we discussed about such a reign. Having been the House to have the Kaisership that created this house system, we want certain...certainties that the house system will remain in place and in prominence under the next Kaisership. I still feel the House system has much potential, even if I did try to push it a little to far with the whole Succession thing(which I admit). I would support strengthening a feudal structure to the House system, and don't wish to see a return to a Territory/Land centric structure.

Re: House confederation.
Huh? I didn't even know you objected to this. Last I knew you didn't object to us joining in with Kalir. And even I never heard one way or the other, I figured you didn't care. Unless I missed a post somewhere...
Yeah... I can't find you objecting to this plan anywhere. I saw some concerns voiced elsewhere about joining Kalir, but no outright objections. And we can still pursue are own agenda. Such as the restoration of the proper flag.
