You can learn more about making money by reading our guide on it [here](<nowiki>https://wiki.democracycraft.net/government/money/</nowiki>).
 
=== Chest Shops ===
ChestShops are where you can buy or sell materials from/to players and firms. To buy an item, right click on the sign, and to sell, left click on the sign. You can shift click to buy/sell an entire stack! You can learn more about using them by reading our guide [here](<nowiki>https://wiki.democracycraft.net/features/chestshops/</nowiki>).
 
=== Jobs and Exams ===
One of the first things you should do is get your first job! You can do this by going to our University by entering ``/university`` in game.
 
We have '''three''' main categories of jobs:
 
# Trade - these are considered manual labour jobs with not many special perks.
## They are good for beginners who want an easier starting off point. Rarely do these type of jobs provide direct pay, you usually have to sell what you get as a part of the trade job.
# Professions - these jobs build on trade jobs by having more advanced or special perks.
## This could be specialised crafting recipes or plugin features.
## Not all professions will provide you with pay.
# Government - you cannot get a Government job immediately, but after around 48 hours of in-game playtime a lot of players apply for these jobs on [our forums](<nowiki>https://www.democracycraft.net</nowiki>).
## These jobs provide a mix between trade and professions, allowing you to work in teams to better our nation
 
For more detailed information, Check out individual job guides that interest you [https://wiki.democracycraft.net/category/jobs here].
 
=== Chat ===
Our server is unique, as there are three chat channels you use to talk to other players. Please **read this carefully** as you will need to use these channels quite often!
- Global (``/g``) - this is the default channel for everyone. You only need to run the alias command when you aren't in the channel. This channel allows **everyone** to read your messages.
- Local (``/l``) - this is a channel with a 50 block radius. Only people within 50 blocks can read your messages (hear you!). Please use this when you are: talking to players right in front of you, seeking treatment from a Doctor, or in an event.
- Private Messages (``/msg <username>``) - this allows you to have a one on one conversation with anyone. Replace ``<username>`` with whomever you want to talk to!
 
In addition to these channel commands, you may want to learn some other handy commands. We recommend you visit [this guide](<nowiki>https://wiki.democracycraft.net/tips-and-tricks/commands</nowiki>) sometime after you finish this one!
 
<nowiki>##</nowiki> Health
 
On this server, we have a custom health plugin which enables players to experience sickness and injuries. You will most likely experience broken legs and flesh wounds, both will give you slowness and/or random damage. Monitor your health status at any time by entering ``/health`` in-game!
 
If you fall ill, head to the Hospital and click the computer head to request a doctor. You can get to the hospital by dying (not recommended!) or by entering ``/gps start hospital`` in-game.
 
<nowiki>:::</nowiki>tip Free healthcare!
 
Most of your health expenses will be covered by Medicare - a free universal healthcare program!
 
<nowiki>:::</nowiki>
 
![Reveille Hospital](/img/intro/deadwax_and_derpy_at_hospital.png)
 
<nowiki>##</nowiki> Government
Our government consists of three branches: Legislative, Executive, and Judiciary.
 
The Legislative branch, or Congress, is split into two parts: the House of Representatives (HoR) and the Senate. Representatives in the HoR are responsible for creating legislation, while Senators review and vote on proposed bills from the HoR.
 
The Executive branch comprises the President, Vice president, and Cabinet. The President and Vice President are elected **democratically by the players** every four months, leading the government as a whole! This is the same electoral system we use to elect our Legislative branch. The Cabinet consists of advisors who oversee various Government Departments.
 
The Judiciary branch runs the court system. Citizens have the right to bring legal disputes against each other, with Judges presiding over cases and determining appropriate punishments based on [our Constitution](<nowiki>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/constitution.6/#post-6</nowiki>).
 
Apart from Judges and Cabinet members, who require Presidential nomination and Senate approval, anyone can run for a Government position. To participate in an election, simply join the race in our [Elections and Referendums forum](<nowiki>https://www.democracycraft.net/forums/elections-referendums.27/</nowiki>).
 
![Will you be our next President?](/img/intro/will_you_be_our_next_president.png)
 
<nowiki>##</nowiki> Land
 
We still have the classic Minecraft wilderness along with our city to compliment. Read below to see how the two work together.
 
<nowiki>###</nowiki> Wilderness
 
Players have the ability to explore the Wilderness, where laws are largly absent. In the wild, you can collect resources, construct bases, and engage in various, mostly unregulated activities.
 
<nowiki>:::</nowiki>danger Be careful
 
Griefing is allowed in the Wilderness, **unless you have purchased a region**. These start at $10 per block and require you to open a staff ticket in-game (``/ticket``)!
 
<nowiki>:::</nowiki>
 
To access the wilderness, use the command ``/airport`` and right-click on one of the computer monitors nearby. A menu will appear, allowing you to choose your desired wild destination.
 
<nowiki>###</nowiki> Property, Plots, and Apartments
 
Players have the opportunity to rent and own various properties both in the city and the wilderness. These plots are technically referred to as "regions". If you own a plot in the city, you are able to build anything on it as long as it meets [Government regulations](<nowiki>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/eviction-information.17/</nowiki>). Most new players don't start off with plots, you will usually need to save up a lot of money first.
 
To find a plot, just wonder around the city until a message pops up in chat. We recommend instead that you wonder inside large skyscrapers/apartment buildings for an apartment instead. You can right click signs that say "[For Rent]" to rent your first apartment!
 
![Reveille City](/img/intro/reveille_city.png)
 
==== Businesses ====
You will often see ChestShops and plots that are branded or owned by businesses. ChestShops will often have ``b:<company name>`` and plots will have company logos on them. You are able to start your own business by getting an Entrepreneur license from our University.
 
![Sausage Sizzle Stands!](/img/intro/sausage_sizzle_stands.png)
 
==== That's all! ====
Great job on making it this far! Be sure to join our [Discord server](<nowiki>https://discord.gg/democracy</nowiki>) if you haven't already, and feel free to ask questions in-game. We're excited to have you!
