Republic

Republican Government is an unplayable Government Form where an elected citizen rules for life — the Government Form of burghers and merchants.

Republican Vassals have static Obligations that cannot be changed, and thus always provide a dependable and predictable amount of Levies and Taxes.

Towns are ruled by the privileged citizens of the burgher class, among whom one is chosen as mayor. While the mayor has significant influence, they depend on popularity to be re-elected.
