What if…
If we are to go into a metadynasty, perhaps our first act should be to establish Rodlen as the “Adam”. The Adam functions as Emperor until each state had declared sovereignty. This gives each state a chance to set up their initial structure before becoming independent. Sovereignty votes could not be veto’ed by the Adam, and only those members of a state could participate in them.
I’d call this a compromise. Rodlen becomes Emperor Lite while the initial ruleset is being constructed. Then we unleash the dogs of war.
