Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 297 Political System
It's no wonder that Tassera said it was difficult. Before settling in Watch Harbor, she had been living in the desert. She occasionally traveled and had been to the Human Empire. However, she had no chance to come into contact with the political system, nor had she come across any book that introduced the political system in detail. At most, she heard a little bit from some noble.

Tassela is confident that it will take a few months or half a year to come up with a decent political system, and it won't be difficult for her to keep silent about it.

“Who do you think came up with stamp duty and deed tax…” Leon didn’t care about Tassela’s promise, because his taste was quite light, and Tassela had always been quite cooperative. He was just not happy that Tassela looked down on him. “You mentioned magic, I really don’t know anything about it, but I do know a thing or two about politics.”

Leon frowned and said to himself: "Let me think about what political systems there are, democracy, monarchy, dictatorship, confederation, plutocracy, oligarchy, commercial republic..."

"What democracy, monarchy, dictatorship..." Tassela was a little confused when she heard it nearby, "I don't understand what you are saying."

“Don’t you understand this?” Leon felt that he had explained it very simply, but he still overestimated Tassela.

"Democracy is when people under democratic government participate in political decision-making, either directly or through elected representatives," Lyons explained. "Monarchy is when a hereditary ruler holds absolute power. The difference between a dictatorship and a monarchy is that a supreme ruler has absolute authority, but it doesn't necessarily establish a dynasty..."

"I don't know much about the Empire, but the Talia Alliance is made up of many small countries and city-states, and many of those small countries and city-states are commercial republics."

Lyon nodded and continued, "In these commercial republics, the leaders are usually committees composed of merchants, whose main responsibility is to increase the common wealth of the city-state. The military focuses on opening or protecting trade routes. Diplomacy mainly focuses on matters such as tariffs, import taxes, etc...."

"Feudalism can also be called a system of fiefdoms. The land outside the royal capital is directly governed by the princes, and they are granted titles, allowing them to establish fiefdoms and defend the central government." Leon pursed his lips. "Feudalism seems to suit us, but it's a bit stupid that the vassal of my vassal is not my vassal."

"All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects." Lyon raised his hand excitedly, "The county system, we must have the county system."

Lyon pondered over it. The Ming Dynasty abolished the prime minister, forming a monarchical dictatorship. It abolished provinces in the local area and set up three departments to further weaken local power. It also set up factory guards and secret agencies everywhere and implemented the eight-legged essay to select scholars. This was a prominent manifestation of the strengthening of autocracy. The Qing Dynasty continued the Ming system, and the autocratic centralized system reached its peak.

This is a world with supernatural powers. The power of a strong man is greater than that of an army. Leon didn't know whether he would be unable to adapt to the local political system he was familiar with. He thought about it and decided to find the problem and then solve it. He said, "I have thought about how to establish a country. You can listen to me and see if it is feasible."

Lyon just opened his mouth and thought about the dynasties in history that ruled over huge countries. For example, the population of the Ming Dynasty should have been over 100 million. The land he ruled was no bigger than a province, with only one Watchtower that could be called a city. Even if those monsters were counted, there were only tens or millions of people. For the time being, he just had to set up the government framework.

All in all, Leon started talking.

He decided to implement an absolute monarchy, in which the monarch had supreme power and his will was the law, free from any constraints.

The Royal Advisory Council has no decision-making power and reports directly to the King, providing advice and consultation to the King from their respective professional perspectives.

The Chief Justice is responsible for drafting imperial edicts and formulating policies. The Lord Chancellor is responsible for reviewing the Chief Justice's imperial edicts and policies and has a certain veto power. The Prime Minister is responsible for implementing policies and managing state administrative affairs... The three parties check and balance each other to ensure the scientific nature and rationality of state policies.

The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for selecting, appointing and assessing officials. The Ministry of Civil Affairs is responsible for managing national finances, taxation and other economic affairs. The Ministry of Culture is responsible for cultural affairs such as etiquette, sacrifices, and education. The Ministry of Military Affairs is responsible for military affairs such as military construction and war. The Ministry of Justice is responsible for judicial affairs such as trials and penalties. Finally, the Ministry of Engineering is responsible for infrastructure affairs such as engineering construction and water conservancy... The six ministries perform their respective duties and jointly maintain the normal operation of the country.

The imperial court held a meeting every half month. The county system brought local administrative power back to the central government, enabling the central government to directly control the localities, effectively preventing the formation of local separatist forces and maintaining national unity.

For certain monsters, you can consider establishing autonomous regions, but they must be subject to the management of the central government.

Noble titles are conferred only for meritorious service to the state, and titles are not granted without special decree. There are two types of titles: one is granted for life, and the other can be inherited. Hereditary titles are further divided into two types: one is allowed to be passed down from generation to generation, and the other is a decreasing order.

The same writing, the same wheel gauge, the same weights and measures, and the same ethics.

The imperial examination system was a system for selecting officials through examinations.

……

Once Leon started talking, he couldn't stop, and he talked for most of the day. He talked until his mouth was dry and he was very satisfied. When he looked up, he saw Tassela looking at him stupidly.

Leon raised his hand, spread out his five fingers, waved it in front of Tassela, and asked, "I said so much, don't tell me you didn't listen."

"I'm listening. I've been listening." Tassela swallowed, her face full of disbelief.

"Now you believe that I have the ability to establish a political system." Lyon said proudly.

Tassela didn't say anything stubborn and said, "I believe it."

"What did you just say? As long as I can come up with an effective political system within a month, you will accompany me in whatever I want to do in the future?" Leon smiled. He didn't care about Tassera's promise, but that didn't mean he gave up. "I want you now... let me think about what I want from you."

"I keep my word, but at least wait until tomorrow." Tassela stepped back subconsciously, "Fiora, if you think she's too stupid, how about Sarovice?"

"You're crazy, she's my sister." Leon rubbed his hands, "Okay, stop running away."

Regardless of what happened to Tassela, Lyon had an idea of ​​how to build a country, and he believed that it would take less than half a year to complete the building of the country.

What about the name Shenzhou, Zhendan or Longting? He has always lacked the talent for naming.
