EiA:Landtag

Landtag system

At the start of each year countries that are not allied with Prussia get control of the Ministries of War, Interior and Foreign Affairs. The Ministries are given in that order to countries bordering Prussia and in the following order:

• France (Always counted as bordering unless Dominant.)
• Austria
• Russia
• (Sweden)
• (Greece)
• Great Britain
• Turkey
• Sardinia

If not enough countries border Prussia, then the remaining Ministries are again given in the above order to non-bordering countries. No country can hold two Ministries.

If there are not enough countries not in an alliance with Prussia at the start of the year, the Ministries are left vacant. Vacant ministries do not propose anything and when responding to Prussian propositions, control is again determined in the above way: Non-allied, bordering, list. This time if no others are available, allied countries are allowed to control the ministry for the proposition.

Prussia gets to propose a motion from all of the different Ministry lists once a year, thus meaning that as long as the requirements for forming Germany are not met, Prussia can propose thrice a year, once from Ministry of Interior, once from Ministry of War and once from Ministry of Foreign Affairs. All ministries get to propose one motion from their Ministry list per year. No proposition can still be proposed twice during the course of one year. Propositions are done after each economic phase before the next turn starts and are done in the ministry order as shown below: Prussia's propositions always come last.

For each motion proposed the relevant ministry and Prussia choose an argument (chit). Who proposed the motion makes no difference, Prussia uses the Prussian arguments both in defence and offence and all the Ministries use the Ministry arguments. Losing a proposition always costs a base of 1PP on top of whatever effects the chit picks had. Motion not carried does not count as a loss when proposing.
