Handy Governing Gimmicks

In our first draft of this book, we delineated every unique form of government attempted, ranging from obscure, AI-assisted family office structures to a historic Persian province, and an ecclesiastical polity of a now-extinct Protestant sect. This seemed like it was going to be really fun but got crazy boring fast. These governing structures fit too neatly into the framework we laid out earlier in this book. Even styles that sounded superficially exotic typically turned out to have a single, unique gimmick. It therefore makes more sense to use these more unique gimmicks to study how the above parameters can be stretched to do interesting things.
