Democracy in the Inquisition is present in all levels except for the national one, in a style mostly similar (except for diocesan-level politics) to [[w:Soviet democracy|Soviet democracy]]. With only a few exceptions (mainly ethnic dioceses), all dioceses operate under the following model, with only minor changes (mostly in the number of elected delegates).<br/> | Democracy in the Inquisition is present in all levels except for the national one, in a style mostly similar (except for diocesan-level politics) to [[w:Soviet democracy|Soviet democracy]].

Every (non-private) workplace, sub-parish-level district, factory, or barracks in the Inquisition forms its own Committee (''galьtirāh'') which elects a delegate (''pidnalьmęlīn''), operating under [[w:imperative mandate|imperative mandate]], to the local (parish-level) Committee. Each parish-level Committee then elects its own delegates (from this level upwards operating under free mandate; numbers vary depending on the diocese) to the upper-level Committee.

Each parish-level Committee then elects its own delegates (from this level upwards operating under free mandate; numbers vary depending on the diocese) to the upper-level Committee. At the diocesan level, there is a distinction to be made in different dioceses: most dioceses have a Diocesan Committee (''juṃšañāñi galьtirāh'') which is formed both by Inquisitors, nominated inside the local branches of the Inquisition, and delegates of lower-level Committees. Dioceses that include an eparchy have a Higher Diocesan Committee (''juṃšañāñi lalla galьtirāh'') whose membership is divided in three parts: one third of diocese-nominated Inquisitors, one third of delegates of the Provincial Committee(s) (which, in these dioceses, include both Inquisitors and laypeople), which must be composed of an equal number of Inquisitor delegates and lay delegates, and the last third of delegates of the Eparchical Committee (which is only composed by laypeople). | ||
Diocese-level democracy is the highest level of democracy in the Inquisition, as diocesan representatives in the central government (all as High Inquisitors) are all nominated by the Bishop; the only exceptions are the single High Inquisitors nominated by each of the six eparchies, which are nominated by the Eparchical Committee (still, they must be Inquisitors, not laypeople). | Diocese-level democracy is the highest level of democracy in the Inquisition, as diocesan representatives in the central government (all as High Inquisitors) are all nominated by the Bishop; the only exceptions are the single High Inquisitors nominated by each of the six eparchies, which are nominated by the Eparchical Committee (still, they must be Inquisitors, not laypeople). | ||
