# The Imperial Court The two classes within the Imperial Court, the **Magistrati** and the **Imperial Councillors**, are essential to the Duxa Empire's functioning. The **Magistratus**, known as lawkeepers, govern Calinthia's six districts, acting as the Emperor's direct political representatives. They oversee the administration and ensure the Emperor’s will is executed, with the Magistratus of Tirros, Deklan Kotos, being the most prominent figure among them. Handpicked for their political acumen and influential connections, many Magistrati come from powerful banking and industrial backgrounds, positioning them as key enforcers of imperial policy and law. The **Imperial Councillors**, on the other hand, are the intellectual and economic backbone of the Duxa Empire. Comprising influential industrialists, scholars, and scientists, they form the Imperial Council, advising the Emperor on policy, economic development, and technological advancement. Their influence shapes the empire’s strategic decisions, driving progress in industry and research. Together, these two classes maintain the delicate balance of power in the empire—while the Magistratus upholds law and order, the Imperial Councillors guide the empire’s economic and scientific progress, ensuring its continued dominance in Calinthia and beyond. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
