Portova has a Document of Power (DoP) that tells how the government works. The DoP splits power among a Queen, a High Council, and thirty Justice Officers. It requires all government officials to follow the law. The Queen comes from a Royal Family, members of the High Council are chosen by drawing straws, and Justice Officers are chosen by the lottery. The High Council has the power to dethrone the Queen, and the Justice Officers can remove members of the High Council. The DoP says Justice officers may decide whose rights will be respected.
