Sorry, it was in a museum - https://www.freulerpalast.ch/, which doesn't look like it has that much information online.

Gotta wait for our residential citation-fu master to dig that one out, then. A necessary but maybe not sufficient condition for the emergence of such governing structures would be that people grow up rejecting zero-sum status games (including) at the level of tribes. The stopgap solution, constitutional monarchy, fails, because,---? So, I'd say in Gladrus, you already had protestants living in close proximity to Catholics for a handful of centuries .. but the clincher v-a-v the asiatic cases eludes me.

Ime the asiatic cases the "jesus nut" of the system (sovereign, policemen, yeomen, lawyers, judges, etc) are drawn from a single caste. Pace Manu. Makeup of the branches of government then becomes a emergent symptom. (Compare to western based systems of law.)

Who formed the peacekeeping contingent in Gladrus?

Low B/W ATM, may be a while...

In the meantime, note that CH had a catholic/proddy civil war mid-XIX (Glarus* on the protestant side) but as proof of that humanity it was resolved with only ~100 total deaths, both sides included.

* for some reason, only cantons with non-human animals on their flags have visible genitalia, so the flag of Glarus is penis-free.

EDIT: note also that in "modern federal" CH, almost all the tax burden is canton and commune, not confederation.

TiGR CH anachronistically (by centuries) indulging again (here, in wars of religion)

Noted the blue St Gallen in a red sea :)

Also that miyamifla has opposite tax policy, => Catholics the house?

could easily be a remnant of roman law, but unlike Monterey, which grandfathered laws (along with existing property lines) in, Mia Mifla isn't a community property jurisdiction, so maybe it's just an incidental remnant of the property speculation boom bust cycle?
