[Technically, the four mandates of the sovereign includes a civil court system, a criminal court system, military defense of the realm, and the maintenance and construction of public works. Examples of public works include standard measures as well as roads.

These four mandates justify the establishment of a sovereign.

Once established, however, the sovereign itself becomes a target for infiltration and takeover by alliances of infra-sovereign institutions. These infra-sovereign religions imagine that they can better achieve their goals through the exercise of sovereign power.]
