Ministry of Truth
Introduction
The Ministry of Truth is one of the ten Federal Ministries which comprise the Imperial Chancellery. It is headed by the Truth Minister, who oversees a wide array of responsibilities related to the control and dissemination of information. The ministry manages public broadcasts, publications, and censorship, ensuring that all media content aligns with the state's official narrative. Beyond its regulatory functions, the Ministry of Truth plays a key role in shaping public opinion by crafting propaganda campaigns, maintaining cultural uniformity, and suppressing dissenting viewpoints. Through its influence on the press, radio, literature, and other forms of communication, the ministry works to cultivate a cohesive national identity and preserve the stability of the empire by controlling the flow of information and molding the perceptions of its citizens.
Organization of the Ministry
The MOT is comprised of six offices, in order of establishment:
- Disinformation Governance Board, known as the Censorship Board
- Office for Public Information
- Imperial Printing Office
- Imperial Patent Office
- Public Education Office
- Public Good Office
Disinformation Governance Board
The Censorship Board is the main governmental body that manages the censoring of people or entities within the realm. If for example, an entity such as the Ministry of Agriculture slanders the Ministry of Interior with untruthful accusations, the board is able to censor the ministry for an amount of time, usually decided by the person imposing the censor.
