Introduction to the Ministry of Internal Affairs[]
"Jack of all trades, master of none, though oftentimes better than master of one."
The above verse in many ways best describes the Internal Affairs. Its departments perform tasks and services that form a support system to other more specialized Ministries and tasks that are inherent only to the Internal Affairs. The span of its work ranges from recruiting new nations and ensuring their progression into the Body Republic to monitoring and evaluation of individual nation's development. Internal Affairs incorporate a variety of different departments, most of which operate in a semi-autonomous manner, particularly in relation to its sister departments. Internal Affairs departments offer their services either to a specific part of the Body Republic or to The Republic as a whole.
