	As with most other towns in [[Amasynia]], Colmouth is subject to the laws created by the City Council and enforced by judges and the town police.

Historically the subject of considerable corruption under the rulership of Mayor [[Daniel Gree]] from 150 to 161 [[Anno Regalis\|AR]] (as discussed in Albrecht Durning's play ''[[The Comedy of Laws]]''), as the Mayor's title has passed from Gree to Gree, Jr. to [[Daniel Gree III\|Gree, III]], efforts have been made to clean up the bribery and self-service in the town's ruling infrastructure, leaving the current system respectable.

−	In 238 [[Anno Regalis\|AR]], the Gree family dynasty of Mayors will be upset radically by a surprise victory of [[Treadwells_(Family)#Harvell Urias Treadwell\|Harvell Urias Treadwell]]. On his twenty-first birthday in 235, he will travel north from [[Myrkentown]] to Colmouth to assume leadership as the new Lord Tubbian of the [[Church of Tubbius]] in the area; within three years, Colmouth will become the stronghold for the faith, supported by an influx from [[Myrkentown]]'s membership at the command of Harvell's [[Aloisius Treadwell\|then ninety-year-old father]]. Shortly after his twenty-fourth birthday in 238, Harvell runs for office, taking the Mayor's seat due largely to a powerful political platform based on the ability for the [[Church of Tubbius\|Tubbians]] to meet the needs of the people who will, at that time, be bordering on starvation due to a reduction of fish in the area thanks to an overly aggressive fishing industry. As a response, Harvell will oversee, with the assistance of his faithful and the City Council, a push to shift the economy toward more conventional agricultural and livestock pursuits where possible to ease off the fishing industry for a time. Though initially met with distrust by the fishers and merchants in the area, his careful explanation of his plan of action, accompanied with a sizable donation of food supplies imported from the [[Myrkentown]] and [[Westenford]] [[Church of Tubbius\|Churches]], wins enough support from the people when the Mayor's position comes to a vote in the middle of 238 [[Anno Regalis\|AR]].

+The people of Colmouth are protected dutifully by the town police and can generally organize a standing militia or naval force in short order from its 4,000 strong.  Most of the townsfolk are solid, hard-working individuals who are more than able to defend themselves as necessary, and many of them know the details of being on a ship, giving them innate advantages should they ever need to go into naval warfare.
