| So far none of them fit the criteria of how I'd like the Grey Army's Senate to function. I'm going to be reading on the roman senate, it's the closest I can find to actually produce the feeling that I'd like with the GA. |

read about the roman senate before the collapse of the republic, during the empire they had almost no legislative or legal power at all, they were pretty much just a stamp. At the most they were advisers to the emperor.

| Are you serious? Members of the Roman Senate often plotted to kill emperors maybe your senate members could plot to overthrow you. |

the roman empire was more of a dictatorship than anything
i think that during the republic it was more of an aristocracy |

And if the people of the Grey Army choose for my removal, I will remove myself. |

| I'd like to also point something out. It's going to be modeled off of the Roman Senate, Not a copy of the roman senate itself. My high ranks will not be allowed to participate in the senate, The senate will be chosen by the people, and will function for the people. |

That is very.. noble of you. Rome was much more organised as a republic than a empire. Rome was found as a republic. Or, you could have a mix. Say, 8 senators all of whom choose their successors. |

| If the senators chose their successors it'd a flaw in the system itself. I'm still deciding how many senators would be in the senate. But regardless, People will be handpicked to vote for senators, and they will not be able to vote for themselves. |

make 9 senators and put you at the head i guess
you'd have no real power but you'd be able to vote just like them so it'd come out to 10 votes on decisions |

Flaws are a part of goverment. So, will you be choosing random people from among GA's ranks to vote on a selection on senators? |

| 7 senators, you and 2 ambassadors (people from other clans or advisors who have been allowed to participate, either on a one-time basis or more frequent) would be nice. |

I will.
Random doesn't make them worthless, Even if they're a private, They're entitled to their opinion. We're all equal in the GA, One person from each rank would be chosen to vote.
Twenty candidates, four senators in total. |

I'm thinking, It's going to work like this,
Four senators, An approval, Myself, and Three heads of state.
The heads of state would be:
Body of the people and well being of the state
Diplomatic relations
Advisory of the senate(Judging corruptness) |
