	All empires have a government, ranging from Anarchy to Dictatorship. The difference between each type of government is only the way officials are elected.

			The type of government can be changed at any time by the emperor of the empire. This greatly reduces the important of the government type and commonly leaves any government type that allows for someone to takeover the emperor office unsafe for public empires. So when planning to have an empire with an open [[Immigration_Policy\|immigration policy]], it is very important to read up on the different government types.

When an empire is established, a government type is chosen. The government type of an empire establishes the rules for gaining government offices and succession to higher offices when a position is vacated. The government type of an empire can never be changed.

Some government types allow players to vote. Players may set or change their current standing votes at any time. Once per week, votes are tallied and offices assigned.

Office assignments due to voting or military office promotion occur at 0:00 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Time UTC] on Saturdays. Here in Colorado, that's 5:00pm on Friday afternoon, 6:00pm when we're on daylight savings time.

Some government types permit players to request offices. Requests for office may be placed or changed at any time. The government type determines when your request might be considered. For example, when requesting an occupied office in a voting government type, you must wait until the next vote tally.

==Governance Window==
The [[Governance]] (F12) window has controls for casting your vote and requesting offices.

The following list shows the Chain-of-Command of offices that can be held. Titles of office can be changed when an empire is created. Gender specific variations for each position can be given. On the user-interface window, the male and female variations of a title are separated using a slash. For example, <code>Emperor/Empress</code> or <code>Crown Prince/Crown Princess</code>.

# President - The president holds authority over all the universe. There is only one president.
# Vice President - The vice president wields the same authority as the president. There can be one vice president for each [[galaxy]].
# Senator - A senator has authority over one or more [[sector]]s.
# Congressman - A congressman has authority over one or more [[System|solar system]]s.
# Governor - A governor has authority over one or more [[world]]s. A planetary governor has authority over all its moons; a lunar governor has authority over a single [[moon]].
# Mayor - A mayor has authority over one or more [[cities]].
