When the population of a fortress reaches 50, the [[Expedition leader]] becomes the '''Mayor'''.
 
 
 
After a period of time, the fortress's [[dwarves]] may elect a new Mayor, who will demand the [[room]]s accordingly. The former Mayor will revert to the job they had previously and will no longer require those rooms. Becoming Mayor gives a happy [[thought]]. Dwarves currently in the military are not eligible to be elected as mayor.
 
 
 
Occasionally, an unhappy dwarf will decide they need to vent their feelings at the Mayor. They will attempt to schedule a meeting with the Mayor. A [[Meeting|Conduct Meeting]] job will be started for the manager and an Attend Meeting job for the complainer. If the manager is interrupted out of their Conduct Meeting, the Attend Meeting has been known to get stuck. Complaining will give the complainer a happy thought, while giving the Mayor an unhappy one.
 
 
 
The amount of [[friends]] a [[dwarf]] has may be the main factor in his election to the office of Mayor. It is still possible for a dwarf with no [[social skills]] to be elected over a dwarf who has them.
 
 
 
A Mayor will sometimes makes [[mandate]]s, which can include banning [[trade|exports]] or producing certain [[goods]].  If a new Mayor is elected when a mandate is in effect, the mandate will end, but no dwarves will be punished for not meeting it.
 
 
 
 
 
== Human mayors ==
 
[[Human]] towns each have their own Mayor, and almost every one of them is a master of a weapon skill. The Mayors give [[quest]]s out to [[adventurer]]s, and no matter how much you might plead they never join adventurers on their travels.
