Description
When law governs, only the guilty go in fear.
A magistrate has wide powers of investigation and punishment, his authority being drawn from the provincial lord and, ultimately, from the Shogun. It is a foolish man indeed who crosses a magistrate, and a foolishly brave one who does so deliberately. He is, then, a tool of legal repression in human form. He also knows his province and can spot men of talent, making it easier to recruit agents.
After the lawlessness of the Sengoku Jidai, the strongest reasons for ordinary people to support the Tokugawa Shogunate were law and order. With peace came the chance to build settled lives, safe from pillage, rapine and murder. Shogunate officials were quick to capitalise on this history during the struggle of the Meiji Restoration, although direct criticism of the Emperor was, of course, completely beyond the pale. The motive of his servants, lawless as they were and without respect for tradition, could be called into question with impugnity.

A player who intends to become an independent republic must refrain from upgrading every propaganda building that is in their possession beyond Magistrate until Realm Divide occurs. This will save time and money on having to tear down and rebuild every propaganda building from scratch which can be very costly due to the sharp decline in public order that will be incurred from non-clan allegiance penalties in every province they have. A player must also refrain from recruiting Shinsengumi/Ishin-Shishi agents and disband all agents that are already present before Realm Divide.
