Thornheim's government was decided to be a representative democracy early into its history. While this plan cause a [[The Falsehood: Democracy|numbe]]<nowiki/>r of [[The Sanitae|criticisms]], the concept was made official and the Thornheim Half-Congress was established. The reason for this name was the fact that not every Dwarf would not be a member of the Congress, but would instead be citizens who would vote representatives to act on their behalf.

The elected representatives were known as Congydwarves, with a Speaker chosen from among them who would funciton as the Half-Congress' presiding officer. Various subordinate positions were created by the Half-Congress, such as the ~~Hills Marshal~~ who would command the Outpost's molir, as well as various "Landydwarves" who would administer the Outpost as designated by the Half-Congress.
