Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

In addition to important matters that cannot be reached, such as Alexis, who commanded the army to fight in Dawn, most of the veterans, even those who served as chief executives in the field, also rushed to the church in Kunogolata to worship. Many middle and low-level officials of the kingdom also came to mourn.

More are the people of Turiy. At that time, Kunogolata provided great help to the people of Turiy who were burnt down and lost their homes. In more than half of the following ten years, Kunogolata is the chief executive of the city. Turui can have today's prosperity. Kunogolata has contributed a lot. How can the people miss his kindness!Therefore, on this day, the people of Turiyi did not talk happily about the rugby game, nor did they go to the restaurant to drink, but the worshippers outside the hall were always in a constant stream.

But although everyone looked sad and solemn, there was almost no crying and it was quiet.This is different from other Greek city-states. In the funeral halls of other city-states, mourning families will even hire professional mourners to add a sad atmosphere to the whole funeral process.According to "Hadis Codex", the soul of the Dionysian deceased can enter the Elysée Paradise according to the performance of his life. It is a beautiful paradise. It is a blessing instead of suffering. So relatives and worshippers do not have to Too sad, otherwise it is cursing the dead into purgatory.

The memorial service for the remains lasted one day, and the funeral of Kunogolata began early the next morning.

Relatives put Kunogolata's body in a wooden coffin, and some sacrifices were placed in it for their last trip to Hades and Elysee.The wooden coffin was placed on the carriage. The carriage was pulled by four black horses. The relatives were dressed in black yarn and guarded around the carriage and moved slowly.

Behind the carriage is the royal family members, senior officials, veterans and their families headed by Davos. They are all dressed in black yarn and have a solemn expression.After hearing the news, the people consciously came behind and gradually merged into a long dragon that could not see the tail, making the inspection station of Turiyi had to send more people to maintain order.

There are more than a dozen flute players and trumpeters in the funeral procession. They play solemn, solemn, and melancholy elegy, rendering a solemn and mysterious atmosphere for the entire funeral procession.

In front of the carriage, Plessinas took a dozen black robe priests to sing Hades carols silently, sprinkled the street with clean water, and led the funeral procession to the Pluto Hill.

Eight court guards in uniforms lifted the wooden coffin and took a steady step to a small temple beside the Temple of Hades. This is the god of Hades-Tanathos. The temple was built after the Southern Italian War.

There is an incineration pond in front of the temple. The guards put the wooden coffin into the pond. The priests began to inject olive oil through the pipes around the incineration pond.

The relatives of Kunogata, such as Sostatus and Dika Okrat, faced grief. Others also prayed silently with their heads down. Only Dafus in white robe walked to the incineration pool and opened his arms. , Shouting to the sky: "Great Hades, Dionysia citizen Kunogata once again returned to hell today. I am your devout people, and I urge you to give him what he did in his lifetime. The well-being you deserve after death!"

After he finished, he took the torch from Plesinas and threw it into the pool.

While the blazing fire ignited, dozens of saints sang in unison, and the gentle songs rang through the hills, washing the sadness of the people.

The wooden coffin turned into ashes in the song, but the funeral was not over. The relatives of Kunogolata took out the unrefined bones from the incinerated ashes, wrapped them in fresh linen and put them in the urn jar in.

Daphes also spoke loudly to the people who came to the funeral for the great contribution Kuno Gorata made to the Kingdom of Dionysia during his lifetime, and also announced that the bronze bust of Kuno Gorata will be stationed in God Hades The Pantheon of the temple is with the Kingdom of Dionia!His ashes canister will be placed in the Temple of Death, blessed by the underworld!

With the completion of these two things, the funeral ended.

Many veterans and officials are no longer consoling when they say goodbye to their relatives, but congratulate them.

Before, the veterans also participated in the funerals of Scombrus and Bacilipi, but the funeral of Kunogolata not only involved the most people, but also reached the peak of their honor after death.

The ashes can only be enjoyed by citizens who are loyal to the kingdom, diligent in life, and devoted enough merit to put them in the temple.It is even more difficult to enter the Pantheon, and it must be made a great contribution to Dionia and even affect the development of the entire kingdom.After entering the temple, it would be a great honor to write a biography of the monument and pass on the famous descendants.Since the establishment of Dionia, there has been only Heraclied in more than ten years, and now there is Kunogolata. For many veterans and officials, Kunogolata’s funeral has become their envy And the goal of fighting for it, this is exactly what Davos hopes.

For ordinary people, they don’t have such a big goal, and their cremation in the main temple of Hades after death is their greatest hope, because the cremation of ordinary corpses is carried out in the ordinary Hades temple. Only citizens who have made meritorious deeds can obtain the qualification for cremation in the main temple of Hades by applying.

The person who approves the application is not the Senate, but is decided by the priest group of the Temple of Hades. The final decision is in the hands of Daphes, because he is not only a king, but also a high priest of the kingdom. Descendants of Hades.However, under normal circumstances, he let go to let the priest group headed by Placinus decide. Finally, he can just look at it. Only the death of an important person in the kingdom requires him to make a decision to decide whether he has the entrance to the Hall of Heroes, the Pantheon, Death Temple, wicked prison qualification.

After the funeral of Kunogolata, the Rugby Finals continued, and everything seemed to be back in the past.

Only the veterans felt a slight change. The number of candidates for the rotating chairperson of the veteran’s hospital was increased by Anta Oris. His seat was also moved to the front center of the venue.

When Dionia was first established, the post of rotating chairperson of the veteran’s office was held by the veterans in rotation, but it only played a role in maintaining the order of the venue, and had little real power.After the Southern Italian War, Davers became king. He no longer let all the veterans serve as the rotating chairman, citing "too many new veterans and unfamiliar with the operation of the Dionysian regime". Several veterans come to take this position in rotation, usually changing every ten days.

At the same time, he also asked the Senate to give the rotating chairman more responsibilities and let them be responsible for organizing each meeting of the Senate, and the main topic of each meeting was decided by King Davers and the rotating chairman on duty. When Firth attended the meeting, he had to upload it to ensure that the meeting would proceed according to the wishes of the king.In the absence of Davis, he had the right to ensure that the meeting proceeded smoothly, and he could even command the guards to remove the veterans who interfered with the meeting. They only had to report the results to Daves after the meeting.

Because of the increased power of the rotating chairman, this position has become an important indicator of the status of a veteran in the senate.

Previously, it was Kunogolata, Cornelius, Cedorum, Vespa, and Lucias who were the rotating chairpersons of the Dionysian Senate.Now that Kunogolata has passed away, Antaoris has filled the gap.

In addition, there is a change.At the same time that Laodicean and other Sicilian veterans committed crimes of dereliction of duty, some officials in Naxos, Siculi, and Katane were also involved in the matter and were pursued. They were all recommended by the veterans of the crimes and took office. Yes, so Daveus took this opportunity to get angry in the senate. He believes that the reason why the management committee of the kingdom officials failed to pass the election of middle and low-level officials was because they were influenced by too many other veterans in the senate. Fairly elected officials, and the appointment of middle and low-level officials should not have been involved in the Senate...

At the beginning of the establishment of the alliance, the responsibility of the official management committee was to formulate candidates for public officials in the cities of the alliance, which could only be implemented after being audited and signed by Daveus. However, each candidate in the list will be read out in the Senate to let the elders know. Sometimes they will object to some of them, the committee will make some adjustments based on their opinions, and Davos will not do too much obstruction, because it is Dafus controlling the senate, so everything is under his control. under.In recent years, with the expansion of the territory and the increase of officials, Davos spent half of his time in the palace to handle political affairs, and the control of the committee could not be as strict as before.

This time, Daphes requested that the office of the Kingdom’s official management committee be relocated to the royal palace, and that the appointment of the official should not be discussed in the senate. Of course, the veteran objected, but he quietly threatened: He is considering whether to let Sesta also investigates officials in other cities in the Kingdom to avoid a series of cases of malfeasance like Sicily.

Eventually, Davers' proposal was approved, and the committee moved to the second floor of the palace.

……………………………………

The day after the funeral of Kunogolata, Krithorpes was received by Davis.

For Sparta's request to renew the covenant that will expire soon for another ten years, Davos and the Senate had little controversy and agreed to this request.

After all, the center of gravity of the Kingdom of Dionysia is in Italy, followed by Sicily. For the disputed Greek mainland, neither Davos nor the elders have much interest in getting involved.The previous calm decade gave Dionia enough time to absorb the migrants, expand the population, develop agriculture, trade, and expand the land... of course they still wanted to continue to have such a peaceful surrounding political environment.
