New Government: Oligarchic Republic

[Andrelvis]

This minimod introduces a new form of government - the Oligarchic Republic. The Oligarchic Republic has similarities with the Democracy, but with some differences - under the Oligarchic Republic, the only ideologies allowed are conservative, reactionary, liberal and anarcho-liberal. Furthermore, it only triggers if the voting rights exist but are very restricted, or if the political parties suffer severe meddling in order to influence the results of the elections.

This mod also adds Oligarchic Republic names for Brazil and Argentina.

What are you trying to represent with this government type?

An Oligarchic Republic is the government form Venice, Genoa, Ragusa and others used - Basically, its what EU3 calls a Merchant Republic.

Way to resurrect the long-dead though. This thread dates from October 2010.

So it excludes Socialism, Communism, and Fascism because they aren't good for business?

What are you trying to represent with this government type?

My intent was to represent a republic governed by an elite, rather than autocratically (like dictatorships) or democratically.

yeah, Meiji Japan was an oligarchy, just centered around a figurehead emperor
