Chypathon

Chypathon is a temple-city state and is mostly tropical. The population as of 2016 estimates is 6,200,000 and is mostly stabilised since the start of the second millennia but slowly growing through artificial means. It borders with Brazil and ? west of the Chypathonian Strait. As member of the Lizardman Commonwealth, which their enforced rule "is to not harm each other and follow the Old Ones' plan".

Most of the civilisation is unknown even to human knowledge, some of the successful expeditions made by Garcia and other European explorers that went into South America found out they claim to be the oldest races in the world but also stole artefacts for the Europeans to see. Some of them went overboard and land in Africa ("Southlands" according to them), eventually getting lost. Some of them ended up in the Dragon Isles (just offshore in Somalia) and become savage. Since today, the lizardman have planned to reach Britain and escape from a devastating End of Times (which is World War III) using old technology.

The origins of the island may be a volcano erupted artificially as it does not meet the mid-Atlantic ridge. The lizardmen claimed as a blessing from the Old Ones. Humans believed it was Atlantis but evidence today shows nothing related to a "Hellenistic/Classical" architecture and instead has the architecture influenced by Mesoamerica and the Inca but today many claimed it still is "Atlantis". Chypathon has bitter relationships with postcolonial nations and the Western world such as Brazil and the ones responsible for looting artefacts considered sacred.

Council
There is no equivalent of each tribe getting at leats a certain amount of members nor an upper or lower house system. The Chypathonian government is all based on the temple city of Chypathon and members are appointed anywhere in Chypathon, the further you are the longer you have to trek through the rainforest, the mountains. This is sought to be a strength of the lizardman to be in the council (by travelling far) but with also that in mind, being misaligned means you are suspended for years or even expelled from the council.

There is always a loyalist party and the opposition party. At least five leaders are assigned to lead each side, depending on each member being loyal, it could change dynamically every year and even leaders could be reassigned. However, every five years members are changed by the Sentinel Pack's choice and the approval of the Sentinel Head (head of state), with testing being mostly involving on the knowledge of the plan and intepretation of the high priests.

The members are to follow the Great Plan but also to manage the state through travelling. They are also expected to also make sure all lizardmen on the state is aligned to the Plan and make sure there are no faults hidden in their bodies. Other parties which are CWL, Republicanists and ULML are entirely against it and refrain from doing such task but form their own 20 seats and still considered part of that huge council. Most of those members are from the capital and are still spreading their ideology to slowly overthrow the old system in favour of a modernised one, so far has being a failure.
