Demostratus

Demostratus is known to have been created in 2132 as a conglomeration of various pro-democracy organisations, which still operate more like factions. Some factions claim to have had the name as a division long before 2132 but it is unsubstantiated. It was created over the alleged mistreatment of the population of Initium Novum by Regal Calculus. The ‘mistreatment’ was originally in regards to blocking nationhood and democratic governance under the ‘failed’ implementation of the Settlement Act 2109 but nationhood was granted in 2133 after the Supreme Court ordered the Astry to send in marines to hold an election.

As the nation of Initium Novum is defined as being entirely within the bounds of a sphere 100km radial from the centre, marked by the HA hub and not the entire planet of Initium Novum; Demostratus still protests.

Demostratus, as a loose coalition of volunteers supporting democratic causes everywhere, but to inconstantly varying degrees of totality. As with any organisation it has its extreme members.

Branding

The logo used by Demostratus is the green tick that overlays the check box when people vote using the electronic HA voting system. The green tick itself is designed to look like it was written with a felt-tip pen. Most people think the branding is rubbish.
