Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 29: Announcement of the new bill

The words of Davers made the people on the square think and began to whisper. There are savvy people who realize that the savvy Archon is not going to ask such a sensitive topic at this sensitive moment for no reason. I am afraid that something will be announced and I will be excited.

Sure enough, Davers increased the volume and continued: “The Senate, as the highest authority of Dionya, the leaders of the citizens, immediately carried out a profound review and reflection on themselves after this incident, and after repeated The discussion and revision of the Dionysian Local Parliament Act was passed this morning."

As soon as this statement came out, the entire square was turbulent.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Daves gestured and said loudly: "You listen carefully after I finish talking, otherwise I miss the key place. If I want to say the second time, I will not be so good. The attitude is awkward."

After Davers joked and let the people laugh again, they all stared at Davers on the stage, erecting their ears, for fear of missing every word, and the square became silent.

“This bill allows cities in the Dionysian Union to establish their own local councils, each of which is an administrative unit that is being established by Dionya, which is lower than the city and is merged by several villages.) The referendum elected the members of the Benedict. The basic requirement is that every 300 citizens choose a member. The candidate’s request must first be a Diaonian citizen, and he has served in military service, has no tax evasion record, and has no big Citizens with good criminal records and good performance can serve as members of parliament, and then the members elected by the citizens form the local council of the city, assist the city chief executive in formulating local regulations, supervising the work of public officials, and proposing opinions that are conducive to urban development. ... Local council members will serve for two years and will hold a referendum election during the winter break. In addition, after the annual autumn harvest, the local councils of each city will also elect a delegation to come to Turai to attend the Senate assembly. Listening to the elders of the Senate to summarize the development of Dionia this year, can put forward their own opinions and participate in Ionian Code, "the new law to modify and develop ......"

The Daves voice just fell, the whole square began to boil: the Dionysian Senate finally gave ordinary citizens the right to participate in politics and discuss politics!

Tios and Dick Polis looked at each other and thought about the same thing: the problems they were still worried about yesterday had been solved by Davers. Those businessmen who heard the news would probably cancel the departure of Dionys. Asian decision...

Like the other people, they are shouting and excited.

However, they saw that Davers still stood on the wooden platform and shouted: "Quiet! Please keep quiet! My words have not finished!"

Through the re-transmission of more than a dozen soldiers, the people who heard this immediately reminded each other: "The governor has something to say!!..."

The people immediately suppressed their inner excitement, held their breath, and wanted to continue listening to Davers and telling good news.

"The Dionysian Alliance is different from other city-states. The Senate directly governs many cities and leads hundreds of thousands of people. Officially because the affairs are too numerous and the territory is too large, the Senate cannot do comprehensive and strict supervision. It is also impossible for the public officials of all cities to be fair and honest, and then there are criminals who have embezzled the public property of the Union, such as Polluxs and Orpheus. Now there is a local council to assist in governance and supervision, and the situation may be much better, but --"

Davers’s words turned: “All Diavian citizens can be elected as local council members, including those who have served in the public office and retired members of the post, and then become the city officials. After a long time, I am afraid some problems."

Daves stopped talking and immediately asked the people to be curious and asked: "What problems will there be?"

"Don't you worry that the members of parliament and public officials will once again have the collusion of money like today?" Daphus's words are like pouring a cold water on the head of the people, and let them fall into deep thought.

"Daveus adults should not seem to speculate on future local councillors in this way." Rafaas, who has always served as an affiliate of the Union, whispered his own opinion.

"No, my opinion is just the opposite." Trio Des Moss, a senior judge who returned to the veteran, retorted: "Daveus adults are working on the worst possible situation, and the corresponding bill is actually protecting. They, to avoid someone becoming the second of Pollux, this is the best effect of the "Dyonia law", that is, to shock the people, to obey the law, not to arrest more criminals."

At this time, Daphus said in a high voice: "To this end, I propose to invite the Senate to discuss and pass the "Diaonia Protector's Act."

Protect the officer? The people are puzzled by this strange word.

Compared with the slow reaction of the people, the expressions of the veterans on the steps can be much more exciting. Even the always-stable Kuno Gorata is sighing helplessly: "Today is a victory for the civilians!"

"This is a good thing!" Cornelus said happily: "I used to misunderstand Master Davers, but I did not expect that once he was determined to involve citizens in politics, the concessions would be so great!"

Mariji listened to the arguments of the surrounding elders, and his heart was even more sneer.

“The bill allows Demo citizens of all cities to vote for the protection of civilian officers. Each city must not exceed a maximum of ten, and the term of office is two years. The officer is responsible for this. You should know that it is a civilian protection. The position of a civil servant must be a citizen who has never served in any public office and vowed not to hold a public office in the future. Of course, he must also be a good citizen who has served military service, paid taxes on time, and has no criminal record. The task is to supervise and expose the illegal acts of public officials and parliamentarians. For local laws and regulations that are detrimental to the interests of the civilians, they can be discussed and revised with the parliament, or even rejected. The Senate will also give the public security officials “inviolability” during their tenure. The privilege, unless it is a felony committed by itself, no one can harm the guardian, otherwise it will be aggravated! In the annual winter break, the city’s custodians will also elect representatives and work with the parliamentary delegation. Lie, report to the Dionysian consul and the most senior ombudsmen and judges on local supervision and recommendations... "Dyonia place The detailed texts of the two important bills, the Bill and the Diavian Protector's Act, will be posted on the bulletin wall for you to watch carefully (the announcement wall was the year before the Daves initiative, at the veteran Several wall walls built under the side steps of the courtyard of the House of Representatives will be posted on the wall when the Senate has a new bill or a new order, so that the people can understand and learn in time."

After Davers finished, the square suddenly fell into a strange calm. The people seem to be convinced that this is true. Yesterday they were still angry at the corruption of the veterans. They argued whether they would go to the Senate’s Great Hall to protest, in order to hold a citizen assembly, and today they suddenly have the right to participate in politics. The right to discuss the government and the power of supervision, especially the position of the civil servant, is the real right to let ordinary civilians speak politically.

If the people are dreaming, some people are still stupidly asked Daves on the stage: "Adult, is this true?"

Davers smiled and replied: "Don't you believe what Daves said?!"

Then the square was full of joy, and the ecstasy of the people was far from watching a football game, taking a bathing hot spring, and even participating in a Hades celebration. This is the natural desire of human beings for power and freedom.

Experienced people have a lot of minds: even in very democratic city-states, such as Athens, most people only have to participate in political affairs and vote for the generals. The people who are in power on the stage are always highly educated, wealthy citizens and even nobles. ~www.novelmtl.com~ Ordinary people have to go through the whole day because of life, how can there be money to receive education? How can I have time to deal with city-state politics? When the city-states are in power and the rich are in power, will they be more considered for civilians? The answer is very obvious. Now in the Union of Dionya, the Archon General asks the Senate to take the initiative to hand over some of the rights to the civilians, so that they can directly intervene in the implementation of the regulations and remove the wrongs among the public officials. How can this not make them happy? mad!

"Diagna, Long Live!!!"

"Duffus, long live!!!"

These two cheers from the heart alternated like a wave in the sea rolling in the sky above the square until it resounded throughout the city.

This will be a new era! Daves stood in the choppy center, standing still and looking solemn: the Senate has legislative power, the parliament has the right to participate in politics, the public security officials have the power of supervision, and they are mutually restrained, forming a balance, initially reaching the political structure he envisions, and he Where is your position?

Davers looked at the sun that had begun to fall, but it was warm but not hot, eye-catching but not glaring...

..............................

In the city of Syracuse, the Dainian Herald, headed by Ansitanos, has been waiting for several days.

"Teacher, I have a clear understanding." Henipolis hurried into the room and said angrily to Ansitanos: "The news we got before we came is really correct. Dionysius has already returned, yesterday. Others saw Dionysius going to the port to meet the second wave of the messengers of Carthage, but they did not meet us for five days. What does this mean?! Know that we are the messengers of Dionia, he This is a shame to our Dionysian Union! Teacher, let's not wait, immediately return to Turui and complain to the Senate about Dionysius's shame on us!"
