Government

Executive

Abessios, as a major city, is governed by a Praetor appointed by the prefectural authorities with approval of the provincial exarch.

Legislative

The Praetor is assisted in governance of Abessios by a council of ten men and women, two per district, who represent those districts and also specialize in oversight of the areas of city oversight necessary for maintenance of the metropolis and its services.

Judicial

The city is part of the Imperial Courts System.

Services

Utilities

The Abessios Works, built underneath the city islands, are extensive facilities where utilities are maintained, power is generated, waste products are disposed of and for some areas where heat is produced. Also, because it is a coastal city, the Works is where one finds the network of massive, powerful pumps which serve to help keep the city itself dry and safe from flooding.

Transportation

Abessios maintains all of the standard transportation modes of a modern major city - foot traffic, buggies and automobiles as well as trolley lines. It is the only major Auresian city, however, that does not have a metro system.

Defenses

As one of the major cities of the Empire, Abessios is provided defense by both fixed fortifications in and around the city and by the nearby bases housing both land and air forces. Law enforcement is provided by the Abessios Constabulary.
