diarchy

Read a random definition: bastardy proceeding

A quick definition of diarchy:

Diarchy is a type of government where two people rule together. This can be seen in history with rulers like William and Mary of England. In India, it was a system of government introduced in 1919 that divided the provincial executives into two sections: one authoritarian and one popularly responsible. The system ended in 1935 when full provincial autonomy was granted.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A form of government where two people share the ruling power.

For example, William and Mary of England ruled together as a diarchy. Another example is the Roman principate, where sovereignty was shared between the princes and the senate.

In India, diarchy was introduced as a constitutional reform in 1919. It divided the provincial executives into two sections: authoritarian and popularly responsible. The authoritarian section was composed of councillors appointed by the Crown, while the popularly responsible section was composed of ministers appointed by the governor and responsible to the provincial legislative councils. This system ended when full provincial autonomy was granted in 1935.

The examples illustrate how diarchy is a form of government where power is shared between two individuals or groups. It can be seen as a way to balance power and prevent one person or group from having too much control.

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
