That's funny that's a pretty accurate description of the government of
Canada
(and most other countries I imagine). New government comes in, ministers
change and their assistants change but everybody else in the bureaucracy
pretty much stays the same. I'm not so sure about that bit about a
meritocracy
though...I think butt-kissingtocracy would be a better description.

I have a somewhat lame Balazaring hunter heroquest on my website. You could remove all the silly bits rather easily I imagine.
Guise of the Crow - a heroquest

It's based on the following myth :
