Ironically we had this discussion of Akiba vs Minami governance systems a while back. One person argued that the Round Table council is just as authoritarian as Minami since it was imposed on the adventurers. While I argued that it is inherently democratic. (As representative democracy is the standard form of democracy nowadays. The Guilds are the representatives of adventurers per se. We use the terms republic and democracy interchangeably while of course they are different.)
