The Constitution of Morea

moe_the_constitution_of_morea_advance

As the wave of Enlightenment sweeps across the Mediterranean, the despots of the Morea have taken the radical step of formalizing the relationship between the throne and the people through a written charter. This document, heavily influenced by the social theories of the Mystras Academy, dismantles the last vestiges of Byzantine courtly favoritism in favor of a meritocratic civil service and protects property rights for the burgeoning merchant class. By granting the citizenry a stake in the governance of the state, the Despotate fosters an intense national loyalty that makes the population far more resistant to foreign subversion. This political modernization will transform the Morea from a traditional autocracy into a sophisticated 'National Monarchy', capable of mobilizing the full psychological and financial resources of its people for the glory of the state.
