A polling place during the last Galeaen election

Iados, Galeae | A milestone for the Galeaen State occurred as the Alumary finally passed legislature removing some of Brigidnas most archaic and difficult election procedures and removing legislation that made it difficult for much of the population to vote.

Strict citizenship laws and awkward polling places made elections mostly ceremonial in the Galeaen state, who had a government controlled by the Nationalist Union of Galeae for essentially the last two decades. The most recent election in 1583 saw a wave of protests against the NUG and a shock victory for the two opposition parties, the Galeaen Party for Liberty and the Galeaen Justice Party. While the two parties would typically oppose each other, they decided to form a coalition to box out the NUG and ensure legislature could be passed that would remove many of the barriers that benefited the NUG in previous elections.

Another major barrier being eliminated is allowing the formation of new parties. Previously, the only legal parties in the Galeaen State were the NU, the PL, and the JP. With the new reforms underway, more parties are expected to be created. Another major constitutional change relates to local government. Previously, the unitary government had trouble administrating many of the local provinces of Galeae properly, with the establishment of different provincial governments, administration will become more localized.

With the new constitutional changes, the Alumary is now expected to vote on a change to the official name of Galeae, which has been the Galeaen State since the removal of the Kingdom in the late 1560s. The new government will be called the Galeaen Republic. The changes are expected to be made official in 1586, with new elections to take place later that year to establish the new government for the Republic.

This momentous occasion saw celebrations in the streets all across the nation as, for once, a government unilaterally acted with the will of the people. Attitudes towards the government are at an all time high and political participation is expected to increase dramatically.
