Year 269, Month 2, Day 15: The New Peraxxians call their nation Peraxxia, and divide it into 16 provinces.

The provinces are Aqgong (AQ), Bfytr (BF), Bughing (BU), Chiben (CH), Dlongo (DL), Eddwfil (ED), Eelahe (EE), Hnikkelun (HN), Lciapwnddl (LC), Ourtt (OU), Peraxxis (PE), Qhygen (QH), Rwelho (RW), Tatago (TA), Xeteg (XE), and Zroll (ZR).

The Peraxxians elect Ruyglen Ijlate as the First Alfintell of Peraxxia. Ijlate is faced with the task of getting Peraxxia going, and he is good at it. He decides a process for electing the Alfintell.

Every six years, in the eighth month, on the last day of that year, the Peraxxians go to fora to vote for their leader. The process begins in the fourth year after the previous election, in the autumn. People at each province capital meet at a large forum and spend many days deciding four representatives to run, along with their campaign aides, which the elects choose after selected. These sixty-four representatives are announced over the Peraxxian broadcast. Then, celebrations are held, and all of the candidates give speeches. Over the next year, polls and debates are held, where the candidates announce their views and plans for their term. Then, in the winter of the fifth year, each province meets to vote on their representative.

Now things get real. The sixteen remaining candidates debate over the next few months, and polls are held to determine the likely winners. Then, in the summer of the final year, the sixteen candidates are voted on, and four final candidates are chosen. These four candidates debate and campaign furiously, spending millions of Blongen on advertising and speeches. They hold rallies and announce their final plans should they take office.

Then, on the last day of the eighth month, the people vote in the morning. They go to fora to cast their votes for the Alfintell. Then, in the afternoon, since the provinces are roughly equally populated, the governor of each province meets in a room to cast their vote, depending on who won in that province. They discuss the candidates in the evening, and the process is televised. This continues through the evening into the night.

Finally, at midnight, to mark the beginning of the new year, the head of the committee stands up, and, with great fanfare, declares the next Alfintell.
