Council of Commoners
The Council of Commoners is a partially elected group of an unspecified amount of ministers who provide an advisory role to the High Council and the Prince-Sovereign of Montebianco by representing the interests of the common folk, the guilds, and the petite bourgeoisie. The Commoners are also responsible for providing a judicial role in the country should citizens require and have the means to pay for a trial.
Seats in the council are allocated by itself to certain organisations in the city who nominate councillors of their own choosing in whatever way they like. The First Commoner, who is special in that they sit on the High Council, is elected by majority from the Council of Commoners therefore having the privilege of speaking first, thus setting the agenda, in Commoner meetings. The Second Commoner and Third Commoner are his deputies should he be unable to attend. Other roles in the Council of Commoners, such as secretaries, are also nominated positions. Commoner Councillors tend not to receive a salary. The Guildhall commands the most seats.
The councillors meet in Serrentino usually once a week.
