And twelve other unions in constant flux, as they represent odd jobs and other crossover situations. Every collective elects a national council representative.
Every shemir who goes to work joins a collective, which handles the economic planning, trade, and wages of every worker, as well as supporting them in disputes with government, tribes, faiths, etc. Every collective has an esoteric branch, a legal branch, and a political branch.
