Welcome to Aeon! We’re glad you’re here, and this guide should help you get oriented in the city.

Applying for Citizenship

If you intend to make Aeon a long-term home, one of the first things you should do is apply for citizenship. This involves a short questionnaire and a one week waiting period from the receipt of a completed application. The vast majority of applications are approved, and you’ll be notified of the status of your application once the Council has a chance to review it. The form can be found here.

Government

Aeon is governed by a council of three people. Each controls a section of the government, and most major decisions are decided via a vote among the three. The size of the council is altered to best fit the current population of the city.

• City Operations. This individual is in charge of city planning and plot management within Aeon. Major public works often originate from this person.

• Justice and Defense. This person is in charge of trying court cases and establishing any laws they deem necessary. They are also in charge of maintaining and expanding Aeon's snitch network. They also collaborate with the City Operations councilor to establish public defense structures within the city.

• Treasury. This person is in charge of secure storage and distribution of items donated to the city. Maintaining the public factories is an important responsibility for this councilor.

All other governmental responsibilities are shared equally among the council.

Aeon has always thrived on self-motivated people. For this reason, the government gives citizens the power to propose bills and amendments to the council. If a citizen ever wishes to overturn an individual vote by the council, the issue will go to a public vote if seconded by another citizen.

If a citizen feels that a council member is abusing their power or failing in their duties, they may call for a vote of no confidence among Aeon citizens.

Factories

Most of the city’s factories are immediately available to you. Be sure to use them for smelting stone, preparing food, and maximizing the use of other resources. Once you obtain citizenship, several more expensive factories become available for use.

All factories are maintained through donations, so occasional contributions to the city are appreciated.

How to Attain Wealth in Aeon

If you need some diamonds to get started, there are a few options other than mining. Several shops around Aeon purchase crops, potions ingredients, and other farmable or afk-able supplies. The Aeon Mortgage Service offers loans for diamonds, silk touch picks, or other moderately expensive supplies using your plot(s) as equity.
