Dictatorship Status

Dictatorship Status was something the High General could declare during a State of Emergency declared by the High Council. Dictatorship Status gave the High General full and complete control over the entire Interplanetary-Fleet allowing him/her to act as a Dictator. This status would last 6 months, and could only be overturned before the end of the 6 months by a Vote of No Confidence. At the end of the 6 month period, a vote would be held in the High Council and if the State of Emergency was voted to stay in effect, then the Dictatorship Status would renew for another 6 months.
