I believe that's how they do it in the real-world, or at least that's how the Monastic Republic of the World of Il Bethisad does it; I like it. However, I'm wondering if the various monks of non-Greek Orthodox monasteries will be eligible for the presidency, I'll have to look into that.

Yes, but when Greece got to the island sometime in the '90s, they found a state in which the British population was killed by the nuclear-bombs, and the Greeks and Turks fought each other to the death because there was no outside power to stop them. The Greeks one, but it was a pyrrhic victory, and Cyprus was desperate for outside-humanitarian effort. Nowadays a good deal of the population is non-Cypriot Greek as a few hundred (maybe a thousand or so) moved there to save the island from depopulation. Of course, with globalization starting back up once again and Greece isn't the only one bailing out the borderline-destitute state, things are getting better for the island.
