Mayors of the Union

The Mayors of the Union is the collective of any Imperial Coalition resident that owns a populated town. This group is most prominent as a role in the Imperial Coalition (now UIP) discord. This group is often addressed separately from the general population. They are also a voting body. While the Prime Minister has the power to unilaterally call a coalition assembly vote, the mayors of the union must vote amongst themselves first before a vote can go to the public. A simple majority means the vote can go public (also known as calling a coalition assembly). This body can also vote unanimously to block the Prime Minister from calling an assembly vote. A unanimous vote, or a simple majority with the Prime Minister voting in the affirmative, is required to admit a new town into the Imperial Coalition. The Mayors of the Union are indirectly mandated in the Imperial Coalition charter.
