[[b]Melizean Stability[/b]: [b][color=green]7[/color][/b]][/center]
[center][h3][b]PROLOGUE[/b][/h3][/center]

[indent]April, 2020.

Melizea was not known for it's elections. Uniquely Melizean, the Melizean democratic process was simple--those who feel they were worthy would nominate a Candidate, there were a maximum of three Candidates allowed and after weeks of campaigning, a President would emerge. These processes were notably unfair and [i]undemocratic[/i], but they were Melizean.

[b][u]Rules[/u][/b]

- After three [b]Candidates[/b] are nominated, no more can be nominated.
