The Syntagma is the Constitution of TWC. It details how the forums are run and how the various offices and ranks interact with each other.

The First Syntagma

This documented was drafted by Boris Pavlov Grozny, and enacted with the support of Siblesz and the grudging acceptance of the Black Prince, who foresaw many of the problems that subsequently haunted the creation of a Curia and a Constitution.

The documented was amended many times before finally being rewritten in whole by Sulla.


Interestingly, the entire idea of "Civitates" was created by Emergency Act which read: So as to curtail the number of trespasses, spam and intrusions to our government by those not deemed to uphold it, the following emergency act is to be enacted immediately:

The Curators, which include the Triumvirate, Praetors and Quaestors, shall choose a congress of Civitates, a number that is to be determined by them and will hold the votes and represent the members which are not Civitates. This Senatus is to be determined by the Curators and be self inclusive thereof. The election will be based solely on a judgment of the possible Civitates Character, Posting Ability, and Seniority. These will be the Civitates which will vote on matters pertaining to the forum.

The emergency Act was eventually replaced by the Civitates Amendment

This Syntagma was finally suspended by Sulla on the 27th of May 2005

The Decimvirate Syntagma
