Consilium provinciae (Nova Roma)

Provincial council, in some provinces it is a decision making democratic body where all members vote on provincial edicts (e.g. in Italia), in most of the provinces, however, it is just an advisory body to the governor's assistance.

The consilium provinciae is usually the inner circle of the cohors praetoria, and consists of the highest ranking officials of the provinces, but the practice varies from province to province, and there are Nova Roman provinces where all members of the cohors praetoria are members of the consilium provinciae, and there are provinces where there is no consilium provinciae at all.

The consilium provinciae in some provinces is called curia, which is a very bad practice and is to be corrected, because the Roman curia was the building of the senate. An example for this is the council of Nova Roman Italia that is called Curia Italica.
