Township Voting is the primary civic system that lets players influence their Alliance’s economy, taxes, contests, and leadership approval. Every citizen of a Township can vote once per week, helping shape the policies and bonuses that affect all members of their Alliance.

== Overview ==
Each week during the '''Weekly Reset''', players can cast votes on four major policy decisions:

* Tax Rate
* Economic Policy
* Weekly Contest
* Governor Approval

Votes are tallied automatically at the next weekly reset, and results immediately impact Alliance-wide systems such as buffs and resource generation.

== How to Vote ==
* Players must be a '''citizen''' of a Township that is part of an Alliance.
* Each player gets one vote per week across all accounts (maximum of three allowed per person).
* Votes can be changed freely before the next reset.
* A quick-vote option allows you to re-cast the same selections as the previous week (except contests).

== Voting Categories ==

=== 🪙 Tax Rate ===
Taxes apply whenever players make purchases from NPC vendors.
The tax from your purchase goes directly into that Township’s '''Alliance Gold Coffer''' — even if you belong to a different Alliance.

Example:
: If you are a member of the Yew Rebellion but make a purchase in Minoc, you pay '''Minoc Federation Taxes''', and that gold contributes to the Minoc Federation’s coffers.

'''Available Tax Rates'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Option !! Rate !! Notes
|-
| Low || 5% || Encourages spending and commerce
|-
| Medium || 15% || Balanced for moderate growth
|-
| High || 25% || Maximizes gold income for Alliance coffers
|}

---

=== 📊 Economic Policy ===
Economic Policies determine which '''Weekly Alliance Buff''' is prioritized for the week.
The chosen buff receives more gold from the coffers and therefore grows faster than the other two.

{| class="wikitable"
! Policy !! Primary Buff !! Description
|-
| Crafter’s Policy || Crafting Zone Skill Gain || Increases skill gains in crafting zones within each Township.
|-
| Hunter’s Policy || Dungeon Buffs || Increases XP, gold, and loot in the Alliance’s assigned weekly dungeons.
|-
| Merchant Policy || Vendor Stock || Improves NPC vendor restock rates and item availability.
|}

---

=== 🏆 Weekly Contests ===
Each week, citizens also vote on which special '''Weekly Contest''' will run for their Alliance.
Three random contest options are available each week — examples include:

* Fishing Contest
* Dungeon Kill Count
* Treasure Map Turn-Ins
* Resource Gathering
* Merchant Sales

Contest options rotate weekly. Players can vote to favor one type of event or let the system choose randomly based on player participation.

---

=== 🏛️ Governor Approval ===
Citizens can vote '''Yes''' or '''No''' to approve or disapprove of their current Alliance Governor.

* A Governor with an approval rating below 20% for two consecutive weeks triggers an '''Emergency Election.'''
* Approval votes help track citizen satisfaction and influence future election results.
* If no Governor is in office, the system defaults to pure democracy — citizen votes alone determine policies.

---

== Voting Results ==
Weekly voting results determine:
* [[Alliance Gold Coffer]] distribution (affecting Weekly Buff growth)
* Priority Buff choice via Economic Policy
* Alliance-wide contests
* Governor approval rating

All players receive a summary notification after each Weekly Reset.

== Quick Summary ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Category !! Purpose !! Outcome
|-
| Tax Rate || Sets NPC purchase tax || Gold added to Alliance coffers
|-
| Economic Policy || Chooses primary weekly buff || Affects buff growth rate
|-
| Weekly Contest || Selects weekly event || Determines Alliance competition type
|-
| Governor Approval || Approves or disapproves Governor || Affects political standing and possible emergency elections
|}
