Just a random idea I had after reading about how nobels wonder in and start trobule.

What if rather than starting a colony for king and country a bunch of revolutionaries left to form a socalist republic. Just a brain dump no actual idea on blanacing issues and who provides justice or diplomacy with the tradtional dwarves.

This could be linked to bloats 146 & 147

Before the bookkeeper arives, they ARE perfectly socialist.

Yes, but what if you don't want nobles? What about nominating your own people of power? Democrary? Revolution? Military cou?

Does pulling the switch releasing water into the noble's room count?

Well it could be that the socialists have no nobels, so no book keeping or dwarven justice, but at the same time no mandates.

Socialists don't have nobles? HA. What about the "Ruling Party" (Nazis anyone?). True for Communism too.

Goddamm commies.

This is a game, and dwarves arn't humans. A dwarven socalist state could be anything we want.

The pre-noble dwarves seem to be some form of anarcho-socialists: No money, no leaders, no real possessions.

The post-noble dwarves are monarchists, of course.  It doesn't even appear to be a constitutional monarchy, or if it is, then it has a really sucky constitution, since the nobles can apparently have anyone they want beaten with a hammer.

But as in real life, I question whether anarcho-socialism would be an effective way of organizing more than about twenty people...  beyond that, the player really needs some sort of help.  Nobles are partially supposed to do that.
