Legislative Body
All laws, rules and matters of state are carried out by a Council of Military individuals in the Stratósterion. Geronthrai's Council consists of four Taxiarhos, led by a single Stratigos. This council deals with major matters that regard to the state, with the Stratigos always having the final say. All other matters are dealt with by the leaders of the various towns and cities under Geronthrai's domain. They meet frequently, the exact frequency dependant on necessity for the State.
The Taxiarhos of Geronthrai are:
  • Taxiarhos Alkippe Dalassenos of Geronthrai (Minotaur, Female)
  • Taxiarhos Iacchus Kourtikios of Phig (Centaur, Male)
  • Taxiarhos Kephalos Rogerios of Epidaur (Minotaur, Male)
  • Taxiarhos Iphigenia Sphrantzes of Stymphala (Minotaur, Female)
Judicial Body
As a militant city state, the day to day dealings of the law are maintained by Hoplite and Lokhagos not currently on active duty. In extreme cases of warfare, Polis can be invested with judical power to maintain the application of the law.
In judical matters, all items are judged by the most senior officer available - normally a Tagmatarkhis.
