Cocerism - The Rule of Many is believed to be a system meant for various contributors to wield power (called Cocerists). As the idea was fitting since the civilization of Charta was based on unity, the system was made to give a fair share of power and an equal community with equal ranks. Those in power, however, must be in control of themselves.
As there are several challenges to complete, the system was purposely made nearly a challenge to see the true colors of a ranking governor. Before the period of Ancient Charta, the legendary figure Cocerus made an approach to the system. The idea that power shouldn't be to only one or two rulers, but to a larger group - a community.
With a split of power, it gives more say in voting and law-making. The intention of having several Cocerists (governors) with various opinions makes it so that it can give them a sense of agreeable trailing. Additionally, the idea of power makes it so that those who have power will forever remain in power (similar to a dictatorship).
It is exceptional for him/her to be voted out by the people if they grow tired or frustrated with their leader (impeachment.) This shows a combination of democracy and dictatorship; while people can vote for various rulers to be in charge or impeached (democracy), it is also noted that they shall remain in power for the duration of their lives (dictatorship.)
The challenge of the system is how the community of Cocerists (with a fair share of power & rank) can avoid corruption. During the creation, Cyrus Charta challenged the country to make the system far more challenging than the way previous systems were designed. If it were to be successful (if it were controlled,) it would be an uplift in the political power of Charta.
Cyrus Charta cleared the idea out stating, "The objection of distribution towards power should be governed by many, foul by a singular individual," as he noted, "To make a system easy to understand but hard to maintain gives the people a challenge of whether or not corruption exists in Ancient Charta. (Or at least can be deflected by.)"
For years to come, the system was one of the many factors to make Charta's political power stronger and more influential. Above all, their example of how they test the people while still maintaining a fluent system makes them far more superior than other Government works (Oligarchy, Autocracy, Democracy, Dictatorship, etc.)
"The approach for a group-governing system was made to challenge Charta. In the future, the determined usage of such power made us ahead of what current countries could do." - Benjamin Renson
After the creation of Ancient Charta, Cyrus Charta (creator) viewed the future of his city to strive, unlike any other civilization that existed in its time. From there, he had the thought of making challenging obstacles to challenge his people - a challenge that would see the colors of those who lead the city. The system of Government varies in freedom of speech and the will to vote. The idea of the number of rights a citizen has, and the rules to later follow. In the mind of Cyrus Charta, he thought differently. For him, it was not the focus of the people, but the focus of the leaders. In late years, people had the distaste of leaders being corrupted or misused for themselves. By seeing the disadvantages of leadership, his test was not his approach to the people, but to see the drag of corruption. Cyrus Charta had the idea to test the leaders before testing the people. The idea was to make a governing system ruled by not 1-2 leaders, but a various amount of people. All in the same position of rank and power. For that matter, there was a bit more freedom for the people considering the amount of say and opinions being gathered by the governors. Cyrus Charta considered the various leaders as sons or gifted leaders. In his time in Charta, he decided to form a combination of the Government systems dictatorship and democracy - two very different forms of free rights and leadership. With the facts and information he learned, Cyrus Charta made many obvious correlations between the two systems for his ideology.
