Politics

Politics refers to the three ways that a crew may be run.

Autocratic
In an autocratic crew the captain is the only person who can promote to a seinor officer or modify the crew cut, booty shares, or articles of the crew. A seinor officer may promote to fleet officer without an issue being raised.

Oligarchic
An oligarchic crew is run by the seinor officers and the captains together. Issues such as chaging the captain, promoting a person to seinor officer, or joining a flag must be put to a vote by the seinor officers and captain. A majority vote within three days of active leadership is required to have any issue pass.

Democratic
Democratic crews tend to be rather rare in the ocean as they require a good deal of trust in not just the senior officers, but every person in the crew of pirate rank and above. Similar to an oligarchic crew in that a majority vote is required, this majority must come from all mebers of the crew.
