Majitir (madg-it-eer)

The Majitir is the equivalent of king or ruler. The Majitir usually signs laws or documents requested by the people. The Majitir is chosen every 4 years towards the end of the year. The Majitir is selected by the people themselves. The session begins with voting of every citizen, including children. The first session of voting starts with 10 candidates. Depending on the number of votes for each candidate, the ones with the top 5 highest votes remain as possible rulers. The rest are disqualified. The second session is the same, but with only 5. The 3 with the least amount of votes are disqualified, leaving only 2 participants left. To determine who will become the Majitir, the two candidates take part in a duel, where injuries are allowed, but not death. The one who leaves with the least injuries becomes the Majitir.
