Citizens Of Antiford The (Great) Technocratic Council
Antiford's technocratic government is run by the Great Council, a group of a dozen technocrats led by a guiding member, now known as the Prime Minister, which can change by unanimous vote by the council.The identities of the Great Council have remained a complete mystery since early on in order to protect them from scrutiny or fame. The idea is not to let the leaders enjoy ego-distorting celebrity, or time wasting scrutiny. However, since the Discovery Day celebrations of 1897, the leader of the council is a public position titled the nation's Prime Minister.
Underneath them are appointed positions considered by recommendation by professionals in their respective fields.
House Of Engineers
This is the public-facing representative body.
Representatives come from industry and scientific fields.

- Ministry of Culture - holiday planning, registrations of birth/death/marriage, censorship, courts
