General Overview of Italian Magical Community
Government
Curia is the controlling government for all of Italy and some surrounding countries and islands. Curia is composed of 5 ruling families, which each have their own function, and departments underneath them.
These families do not care much for blood purity, but they do care about the name being carried on, and therefore boys are incredibly important. The Head can be passed to a female who is first born, but their children cannot become the head after them. The closest relative to them with the name will become the head after them.
If the eldest child of the current head of the family dies, then the second child becomes the head and so on. If the head has no remaining heirs, the title goes to the closest relative by blood to the last head.
Salvatore Family
The head family. They are the overseeing power. The eldest child of the main family becomes the Head of Curia. The rest simply enjoy a status comparable to royal status in a monarchy.
Cavaliere Family
The Cavaliere family runs the military. Much like the Head of the Salvatore family becomes the head of their area of control, the head of the Cavaliere family runs the military. Those in this family that are not the head become bodyguards for the other families as well as help with their own smaller bits of military control.
The Cavaliere family are all extremely skilled in dueling and fighting in order to fulfill their function.
DeLuca Family
The DeLuca family run the treasury. They keep track of the money, and gives advice to the other branches and tells them when there isn't enough money for something, and things such as that.
The DeLuca family tend to be trained in math from a young age, but the head of the family is determined by the current head choosing the best heir with the DeLuca name instead of the eldest born.
Manius Family
The Manius family are the judges of the government. The head of the Manius family deal with cases that reach the highest levels. Throughout the community there are many Manius who rule the lower courts, local courts, and things such as that. While other families may become judges, the Manius family automatically become judges and have higher authority than any other appointed judge.
Lupin Family
The Lupin family tend to be the diplomats of the community. The head of the family deal with managing the relationships between the Italian Magical Government and all of the other magical communities.
The name has dwindled down and so diplomats related to the family, though may not have the name have been appointed, but the head of this branch, according to tradition, must have the Lupin name.
With the recent passing of the last Lupin, Vincent Lupin with no male children, or anyone with the name in Italy, the government is current searching for the children of Raphael Lupin, who had gone to England, as they knew he had at least one male child.
Essentially, they're looking for Lyall, Remus and Rose Lupin in order to take over the title of Head of the Lupin family. When they find the Lupins in England, they would likely opt for the children, as they would have children themselves who would be raised in Italy (they hope) in order to raise that new generation themselves and instill their culture and values into them.
Recently, the younger members of Curia, future heads, branch families, and the similar have been sent to different schools around the world in order to learn more about the other cultures as well as search for the new Lupin family heir.
They also hope to have the future heirs marry into well known and highly regarded families in order to promote peace between the different communities.
