Killeen

Founded: November 19, 2006

Under the Leadership of Citizen Prince September Carnivale, The Northern Meritocracy closely follows it’s sister government to the east, founding a government based on worth instead of simple power or wealth.

Each member of this Texas Domain is levied respect solely upon their individual merit without bias from Clan, Covenant, Age, Lineage, Sex, Race, Magical prowess or Divine right. Little is regarded for what a Kindred has done in the past, as much more emphasis is placed upon what will they continue to do for the Domain.

In this aspect different levels of residency exists in the Meritocracy, each with various levels of rights and responsibilities as follows. These mobile class classifications are regarded as honored titles within the Meritocracy, and are used commonly in correspondences.

Resident or Citizen?

Resident

A Resident is clarified as one who resides within the Domain, but has fallen from the graces of citizenship, cannot fulfill the requirements of obtaining citizenship, or does not wish the added responsibility of Citizenship.
