Author Notes: I have returned after a bit of a break. This story I feel is going well even though I had some virus trouble that is behind me. We are at the point when the revolution has been successful.
"We are a proud people who have suffered much under the hand of Medianism. Our ancestors fought the beast and we have faced our sons being taken to wage war on friends and allies. Our daughters are taken to please those monsters. But we at the Society have yet to give up because we believe in the glory of our heritage and have been helped by our protectors and friends the Hellas. They stand with us and help us. Are we mere toys? I have exiled all of our chiefs who don't care about us or our history. We stand by the ideas of people rule emerging by Hellas. Every year he wins and never cheats or lies to his people."
As Sartorius is speaking his underlings secure the outlying areas and return Tehran to their form of democracy. The people are puzzled but love the Society because they preach a brand of nationalism and a sense of belonging to a tribe appealing to history as a guide. But the guide is based on the traditions of tribal rule and hereditary rule that goes back many moons. After the light had rained down the people didn't seem to question the new order.
Sartorius never seemed attracted to the will of the people. He just needed to rule so he could find a way to rule the world. He knew that he would have to lie to get his way. He and his cronies started writing down a new set of laws.
The laws were as follows:
There is one party. That party is going to be the Society
There will be elections every year for chief and he gets to pick his underlings
Sartorius will be chief and will call the first election after stabilizing the country
If Tehran goes to war then the president will stay until the end of the war
This constitution can be modified by the people if they see fit and can remove a chief whenever
The people did not debate this constitution for they considered it sufficient for now and trusting the leaders. They had staked the hopes of a people on the wrong man.
