The '''Department of Justice (DOJ)''', formerly known as the '''Department of Legal Affairs''', is the executive department tasked with '''defending the national legal interest''', and '''investigating and prosecuting crimes''' on behalf of the federal government. The department exists to protect the government and keep the country safe. The Department of Justice has tasks to do and these tasks can change depending on what is happening in the country.
The '''Department of Public Affairs''' ('''DPA''') is an executive [[department]] within the Commonwealth of [[Redmont]]. It is tasked with organizing and hosting server community events and contests, facilitating media grants, and managing private events. As a highly significant force in community outreach, the DPA serves as the primary bridge between the government and the player base. The department is currently headed by Secretary Spyders_crypt.

The Department of Justice was created in '''July 2020''' as one of the parts of the government. At first it was called the '''Department of Legal Affairs'''. Then it was given a new name. Over time the Department of Justice has had leaders and has gone through a lot of changes. Even though the Department of Justice had some times in the past it is doing well now and growing under new leaders. The people who work at the Department of Justice have to be able to adapt to situations because the outcome of trials is never certain and unexpected things can happen. The Department of Justice is a place to work for people who are interested in '''criminal law'''.
The DPA was founded to act as the central hub for server-wide community outreach and entertainment. Through hosting events, promoting the server on social media, and managing public relations, the department maintains an active and engaged player base.
