"Oh, this is fun!" Canos smiled, subconsciously looking at the opposite man: slender body, thin face, with a hook nose, a weak temperament in the text.
When he found out that Kanos was watching him, the man looked up and smiled. "I saw you in the VIP hotel in Turui. My name is Cipros and I am from Trina."
Canos hesitated and said: "...I am from...Elia."
"Oh, Elia." Sipros didn't seem surprised. He looked at Canios and said seriously: "I have been to Elia several times, and we talked about our Trina and you Elia. In the same dilemma, Trina’s territory is often attacked by the Bruti people, and Elia has always been surrounded by Lucanias. The difference is that we have allied support behind us, and most of the time you can only be alone. Combat."
The words of Sipros said that on the heart of Canos, this feeling of mutual sympathy made him feel good about Sibros, and his body tilted forward unconsciously.
"You represent Elia, come to Diaonia for help." Sipros said again.
Canoss hesitated again and immediately said: "Elia is coming to seek an alliance with Dionia..."
Sipros saw his concerns and comforted him: "Don't worry, Diaonia will be allied with you!"
The West Pross language is amazing, and Canos has heard a shock. During these two days, he was in Turui, and when he saw the power and prosperity of the Diaonians, he began to worry: the weak Elia could not afford it. The interest of Dionia is not willing to provoke the fierce Lukanians.
At this moment, he put aside his guard and asked: "Why are you so sure?"
"Because Elia's position is very important." Sipros tied a tripe with a wooden sign and threw it into his mouth. After chewing it, he said, "It is good for Dionya to unify Lukaria. area."
"How can Dionia want to occupy the entire Lukaria region?!" Canos was shocked.
"This is of course very possible. The dynasty of Dionia determines its ambition to expand." Cipros's face with a complex look, very surely said.
"You mean -" Kanios suddenly realized, looked around and bowed: "Diaonia has a lord." The city-state with the lord is always brutal and aggressive, no matter how many years. The former Syracuse's lord Gron and his successor, Heeron, Lijim's former lord Anaxilas, and now Dionysius, have proved this.
Sipros shook his head. He is a thoughtful person. Since the last time he sent out to Dionia, he has been analyzing the reasons for its rapid rise because of his curiosity about this emerging alliance: "Not exactly, I don't know Diony The governor of Asia, Davers, is not a lord. Although he is the highest authority of the Dionyrian army and has the right to sacrifice, he is also the highest administrator of the city-state alliance, but as the highest authority, the Senate The chief veteran, he has great influence, but he does not want to do anything. His proposal also requires the majority of the veteran's veterans to agree to pass. The appointment of the senior public officials of the alliance must also be selected by the Senate. Although he has the right to negate, the important events of launching war and achieving peace are also decided collectively by the Senate. Unlike the lord who can easily determine the life and death of citizens, his actions are still subject to the laws of the Union. However, compared to Sparta The king, the generals of the democratic city state, he has more power is beyond doubt..."
Caneos listened carefully, thoughtfully: "No wonder I heard that the consul is often not guarded by the guards in the city of Turui. It is often out of the neighborhood of the city of Turui, completely unlike Dionys. Hughes lived in the palace and had thousands of mercenary guards to protect himself. In this way, he seemed to be a... um... a democratic king."
"The King of Democracy?!" Cipros listened, excited to take a table: "This word is very suitable, just to illustrate the position of Davis in the Dionysian Union! Officially because of Dionya's unique ruling The official system created the rapid rise of Dioria."
"You mean that the power of Dionia is caused by Davers?" Canos asked in surprise.
"Oh... Daves is of course a very capable sergeant, but the political system of Dionia is also very unusual -" Cipros rarely found a person to vote, Kanos's question is convenient He continued to explain his meditation during this time. However, he felt too dry in his throat when he ate too much sauce. He swallowed and said, "Canos, do you drink beer? The beer in this store. It tastes very good. I heard that Daves specializes in directing the slaves of the men to make it after many experiments. This person is not only military and political, but also has its own unique business. It is no wonder that it is called 'The sorcerer'!"
Beer is just a drink from the people at the bottom of the city. But listening to Cipros, Kanos also has some heart.
"Come on two big cans!" Cipros shouted.
A narrow-necked bottle of crock was placed in front of Canos, and Kanios picked it up, and a faint sweet fragrance came from the nose. He took a sip of his mouth, and the cool golden liquid slipped down into his stomach, dispelling most of his body's heat. He couldn't help but drink a big mouth.
"It tastes good!" Seeplos said, proudly said.
Kanios nodded and made a wine cellar and couldn’t wait to ask: "What is the difference between the system of Dionya you just mentioned?"
Sipros did not sell any more. He took a sip of wine and said slowly: "Whether it is Crotone or our Trina, the highest power is the Citizens' Congress, which determines everything in the city-state; secondly, it is reduced. The number of councils, usually at least three or four hundred people, will discuss the settlement of the usual city-state affairs; the general elected by the citizen assembly is only the highest executive of the citizen assembly and the decision of the council, right?"
"Yes, the same is true for Elia. The system of the Greek democratic city-state is roughly like this."
"Dyonia's system comes from Amendola, and Amendola... I guess, after it left Deboris, it was influenced by Tarantum like Heraclea and Metapontom. Because Tarantum is a sub-helper of Sparta, it becomes 'double king' as 'double consul', the elders council is the Senate, but the consul is elected by the citizen assembly, but Davers leads the employment. After joining the army of Amendola, the soldiers not only became the only consuls in the life, but also seemed to have never held the Citizens' Congress..." Sipros said deeply.
"Diagna canceled the citizenship conference?!" Caneos almost screamed out, before he spoke to Cipros, based on his past understanding - Davers was a lord, then Dionys did not The Citizens Congress, Canos is not surprised. However, Cipros had already told him that "Davers is not a lord, and he is also restricted by the Senate." His understanding of Dionynia has become - this is still a relatively normal city-state alliance, so listen If you go to West Pros, you will react too much.
"Diagene's Citizens' Congress has not been cancelled explicitly, but it has not been held..." Sipus said slowly: "I think it may be that the situation in the Union of Dionia is special, so it will not be held. After all, wear The citizens of Onia are scattered in several cities, the sources are complex, there are Greeks, and there are quite a number of foreigners, including the Turifs, as well as the Amendora, the Cremesa... Citizens’ meetings are time-consuming and easy to argue with because of their interests, and they cannot decide anything...

Kanios thought about it and had to admit: "Perhaps, this may be an important reason. Like Elia, even though we don't have many citizens, we live in the city for generations, every time. Holding a citizenship conference, many important issues cannot be agreed, let alone an emerging alliance with a complex source of citizens like Diaonia."
Sipros patted the bottle of the beer can by hand, hesitated for a while, and took a sip of his face, and said: "In fact, the citizen assembly handles affairs... Any topic, citizens are easy to base their own preferences. And the interests, not the interests of the city-state, to express opinions and exercise the veto power, the result often leads to a problem that cannot be solved for a long time~EbookFREE.me~ especially in times of crisis! If the citizen assembly cannot quickly unify the opinions, it will Let the city-state fall into great danger. It is because of this that Trina has long faced the invasion of the Bruti people, so we have a system different from the southern Italian city states such as Crotone and Xiliting. On the invasion of the enemy, Trina will immediately elect a full-fledged general with the highest power to decide all the city-state affairs during the war! This avoids endless discussions and disputes!"
Canos smiled: "Elia will also elect the dictator in the most difficult time of the war, and have the highest power of the city state, which is very similar to the plenipotentious general you said."
The common understanding made Sipros no longer hesitate. He said bluntly: "You see, both Trina and Elia, realize that the Citizens Congress does have some shortcomings, but only made some minor changes, but Dionya completely dismissed the Citizens’ Congress and used the ability of the Archon Daves and the rich administrative experience of the elders of the Senate, which is less than 100 people, to quickly pass the bill in favor of the development of the city-state alliance. In deciding, Dionia has enacted laws that are impossible for other Citizens' Congresses in the southern city, and two of them are very important! Dionia as a newly formed alliance can rise so fast, these two bills Played a very important role!"
