"Now, the elders who want to serve as the prefect of Enona are invited to sign up."
As soon as Cornelus finished speaking, someone quickly stood up and said loudly, "I want to run for election!"
Davos narrowed his eyes slightly.
This is Miron, the former chief general of Crotone who once fought Davos.
After Crotone was incorporated into the Kingdom of Dionia, he first assisted Crotone's then-administrator, Cornerus, to rebuild the city of Crotone, and held several intermediate positions in Crotone: Construction officer, agricultural officer, administrative adjutant...
After Dionia conquered Messapi, because of Miron's excellent performance in Crotone, Davos personally ordered Miron to serve as the administrator of Udier, the central town of the Messapi region, showing that he was right. his complete trust. And Miron lived up to expectations. After taking office, he acted resolutely, quelled several riots, and uncovered several tribes that were unwilling to surrender, including the family of Pasimerus (after Pasimerus failed in the Battle of Brindisi) He died suddenly, and there are different opinions about the cause of his death. Some believe that he committed suicide because of the hopeless future of Messapi. Others say that his family assassinated him to seize power. dissatisfied with his dictatorship and took this opportunity to kill him). Miron treated them mercilessly, either executing, imprisoning or expelling them, which made the order in the entire Oudière area sober, and even the people in the nearby town of Messapi became much more honest.
Half a year ago, Miron ended his term of office and returned to Turii without asking for re-election.
At this moment, Miron applied to go to Enona, and Davos was not very optimistic about him. After all, Enona needed a person who could handle the relationship with Campania and Samona well, and had flexible political means without losing any money. A hard-nosed elder, Miron, who was called "the executioner" by some Udier people, was too radical in his ruling style.
At this time, another old man stood up in the crowd.
Adrianx! Davos blinked again.
After the South-Italian War, many city-states merged into the Kingdom of Dionia. Although the Senate also absorbed many new elders from these city-states, they could not be dispatched immediately to manage a city independently, because their Loyalty needs to be verified, and they don't know Dionia's political system and laws yet, and they also need a period of familiarity.
However, the number of senior elders in the Senate is not many, but these new elders have become the majority. Therefore, the Senate urgently promoted many outstanding middle-level public officials to become senators, such as Asistes, Olivers, Matonis, Geogris, Cycrian, Aristocrates, and Fraucle. Ang, and even Mattikoris, Mentotic Els, Stacey Cordas, etc. of Dionia Academy, all entered the Senate during that period.
But at that time, there were not many elders who had experience as city administrators, and there were many city administrators in the kingdom that were in urgent need of the elders. For this reason, Davos and Kunogolata had to mobilize their former employees. The elders of the army acted as important responsibilities, volunteered to serve as the chief executive of these new territories, and supported the new local elders, so that the old elders learned to govern in practice, and the new elders understood the system operation of the kingdom through assistance, Davos said. Think of it as a win-win, hence the "Antonios becomes Naxos chief, Alexis takes over Enona, Hiros takes over Lokri" that was a lot of the time, although there were some However, in general, the order and stability of the Kingdom of Dionia and the good functioning of the government are still well guaranteed.
Adriankes is also one of the elders to be ducked on the shelves. Stimulated by the incident of "becoming a laughing stock at the Isthmus Games", he thought hard and strengthened his study of knowledge and culture. He also attended the Dionysian Academy to listen to Lycias' lecture on eloquence, so he served as an administrator for the first time. When he was in office, he didn't even ask the Senate to send new elders from the local town to help. Of course, this newly merged town into the kingdom was also the best managed. Castellon - a small town next to Turii, which has always been influenced by Dionia, and its people's rumour of Dionia makes Castellon, who has not joined Dionia before, look at it. It looks like a satellite city of Turii.
Therefore, Adriankes successfully ruled in Castellon for three years. His greatest achievement in Castellon was to lay the groundwork for Castellon to truly become a satellite town of Turii (another satellite town of Turii was Vicinia). From the convenience of transportation to the expansion of the port, and to let the Castellons join the city rugby, football games of Turii... and so on, Adriankes has made a lot of efforts. He also wrote to the Senate several times to apply: the tidal flat north of Castellon should be transformed into a naval port, and the First Fleet of Dionia would be stationed.
At that time, it coincided with the expansion of the city of Turii, and the temporary construction of the military port on the lower reaches of the Crati River for the South-Italian War was no longer suitable for the fleet to park. , Free renovation of this troublesome tidal flat, but also by the way to promote the development of Castellon port and small business. Although the main force of the First Fleet was later relocated to the great port of Tarantum due to the continuous expansion of Dionia's territory and the needs of the kingdom's strategy, Castellon Naval Port is still one of the important military ports in the Gulf of Taranto. So to this day, the Castrons are still talking about his goodness.
Later, Adriankes was transferred to be the chief executive of Heraclea. This is another great Greek city-state that has long since returned to his heart. Adriankes was not difficult to govern, but he was not idle either: in office for three years, he led the people Great efforts were made to dredge rivers, build bridges, fill in swamps... By the time he left, the annual floods that the Heraklians suffered were greatly reduced.
He then became the chief executive of Uzentum. Ugentum is a seaport town in the Mesapi area, facing Crimea across the sea. Due to the small population in the city and the occasional sea trade with the Greek city-states of Greater Greece, Ugentum people are not like Udi. The people of Egypt are on high alert to the Greeks, so Adrianx's ruling still did not encounter major troubles, and he took advantage of Ugentum's proximity to the Gulf of Taranto and the geographical proximity of Udière. The location, the major expansion of the port and the construction of the road leading to Udière have made Ujentum a transit point between Turii and Udière (because Turii-Ujentum-Udière has become the most convenient route, which usually only takes a day’s journey), which also brings benefits to the people of Uzentum.
Adriankes's achievements as chief executive three times are dazzling. The Kingdom Officials Management Committee gave him an "excellent" score for government affairs during his tenure, and evaluated him as good at town construction and able to improve people's lives.
However, Enona's situation is more complicated than Castellon, Heraclea, and Ugentum. Davos is not sure whether Adrianx can handle it well.
Then another elder raised his hand, and most of the elders around showed complicated expressions: Nico Marcus, the elder from Lokrie.
In the Great Greek War, Locle, who was a city-state of Great Greece, became an accomplice of Dionysius, the tyrant of Syracuse, and was rumored to have been involved in the assassination of Davos. Therefore, the Locles became rats on the street and were attacked by Great Greece. the disdain of man. After Locley surrendered to Dionia, in order to stabilize the once-great Greek power and its allies, several members with high prestige in the Locley Council were elected as Elder Dionia to drive away Demos. Dorcas, Nico Marcus, who first proposed surrender, was one of them.
Nicomachus, like Miron, remained in Locri to assist Heros in governing Locri. The Locris soon accepted the rule of Dionia, thanks to Nicomarcus, and of course the reason why the culture of the Locles was compatible with Dionia, because the Locles were the wives of Hades. Persephone and Aphrodite, the goddess of love, are the patron saints of the city-state, and have a natural affinity for the Dionysians. In addition, the severe punishments of the Locles also make it easier for the Locles to obey authority.
In Dionysian six years, Davos named Nico Marcus as the administrator of Oldrum.
Oldrum is also a seaside city in the Messapi region. Unlike Ugentum, Oldrum is located on the southeastern tip of the Italian peninsula. Due to the fertile surrounding land, the town has a large population and it is located on the Adriatic Sea. The exit is the closest place on the Italian peninsula to the mainland of Greece. Two hundred miles across the Adriatic Sea is the famous island of Kerkyra. Therefore, Oldrum is also the town in the Mesapi area that is most influenced by Greek native culture. In its harbour even Athenian merchants and Pythias merchants, who represented the Spartans, were sometimes seen in action.
After the conquest of the Mesapis, Oldrum was the second most turbulent city after Udie, which shows the difficulty of governance, but within three years of Nicomarcus taking office, the city of Oldrum was The political situation is stable, and the people gradually return to their hearts, which shows its strong ability.
In fact, Davers believed that Nico Marcus was the best candidate for the city administrator of Enona, but he had stated in advance that he would not appoint a candidate, so the possibility of Nico Marcus being elected is very slim, because Loclery People are not popular with the great Greek senators.
Another elder who participated in the election was a elder from Sicily, but he was different from the other Sicilian elders. He was from Syracuse.
After the Great Greek War, Syracuse and Dionia reached a peace agreement. After that, a group of Syracuse people and slaves strongly demanded to leave Syracuse. It turned out that Dionysius conquered the eastern and central parts of Sicily. On the coast, the people of other city-states were forcibly relocated to enrich the land of Syracuse. Among them, the Leothinians were the majority, and these people were also one of them.
