Creating Governments on Notebook.ai
The organizations of your world that keep it running smoothly — or not!
Creating governments on Notebook.ai is easy.
To get started, just click Governments under the "Worldbuilding" header in the site sidebar. You'll be able to see or edit all of your existing government pages and create new ones at any time. You can also customize your Government template for all of your pages here.
Search your governments
If you've got a lot of governments, you can quickly get around to the right one with Notebook.ai's full-text search. It searches your entire notebook for anything you wrote about that government.
You can also filter your governments by tag, whether you've favorited that page, and which universe it's in.
Private by default
Your ideas are valuable. Every government you create in Notebook.ai is owned by you, completely private by default, and only accessible to you.
But of course, you also have full control over that privacy and can share any government page you want, however you want, whenever you want.
Governments are a Premium page
Government notebook pages require an active Premium subscription to create, but users on free plans can view and edit their existing government pages at any time.
Notebook.ai is your personal worldbuilding notebook; any page you create is yours forever and you'll never lose access to any part of it for any reason — even if you downgrade to a free account in the future.
account_balance Get a head start with a detailed, customizable government template
You can fill out as little or as much as you'd like on every new government. You'll see progress indicators every time you edit it to show where you can make progress on and our system will intelligently generate questions for you around the site that will automatically save your answers to the proper place on your government page.
Templates are also fully customizable across every government in your notebook.
You can browse the default template for governments here; just click a category to see the questions it starts with.

Building entire fictional worlds is hard! And it gets even harder when you've got ideas that span multiple universes or worlds.
To help you focus on what's relevant, Notebook.ai lets you focus on a single universe at a time. This hides your notebook pages from all other universes and lets you work on your world without distractions.
To focus on a single universe, simply select it from the top-left dropdown of any page.
AVAILABLE ON ALL PAGES
group_add Invite others to collaborate
Notebook.ai lets you add an unlimited number of collaborators to your universes for free. Each one has full access to work alongside you on your governments and other pages within that universe.
If you have a Premium subscription active, your collaborators can also share all of your Premium perks while working in your universe, too!
