In order to maintain order on The Ark, a strict system of justice is put into place, which resembles a dictatorial government more than a democratic form a society. Thelonious Jaha was the last Chancellor of the Council that governed the Ark. As the Chancellor, Jaha had a major role on the Ark, that brought on many hard decisions and challenges, such as ending the lives of hundreds of people in order to save thousands, or choosing to stay behind on the Ark to ensure that some of humanity can return to their home planet.
In order to maintain order on The Ark, a strict system of justice is put into place, which resembles a dictatorial government more than a democratic form a society.
