The Ministry of Defense and Justice, also known as the Fourth Ministry, [1] was part of the Ivory Court and enforced the law of the Colonies, with the Ivory Champion at its head. It was made up of the Colonies' magistrates, the Second City Guardsmen, appointed judges, and the personal retinue of the Ivory Champion. The position was originally created by the Imperial Governor of the Colonies Otomo Suikihime, to whom they served. [2]
