 ===== Government =====
 Throughout history, there have been a variety of different governments from monarchies to republics and from societies ruled over by warlords or tribal leaders to true democracies where everyone in the village had a voice. And then there were the people beneath them, those involved with writing down the laws of the leaders, executing them, and interpreting them in a court of law.

+==== Clerk ====
-==== Politician ====
+Clerks work for royalty, politicians, or courts to write down laws and findings or in writing up messages to be sent to other royalty, politicians, or courts. They are generally not as perceptive when it comes to environmental factors, but they can be very perceptive when it comes to written information. They are insightful with people they deal with often, especially when they are required to not just write down what they are told but also to catch the feelings behind what is dictated.
-Unlike royalty, who generally inherit their positions through marriage or bloodlines, politicians are generally appointed or elected. Except in remote tribal situations, politicians are generally literate and well versed in law and diplomacy. They usually have someone who owes them something and can often call in favors when necessary.
