The voting age in Ajax varies by country. The age is usually between 16 and 21. In some countries, the voting age may differ by state or the type of vote.
Voting age by country
| Nation | Voting age | Details |
|---|---|---|
 Gelonia
|
16 | |
 Ghant
|
16 | Lowered from 21 to 18 in 1970, and from 18 to 16 in 2010. |
 Latium
|
17 | Before 1961, the only requirements for voter eligibility were to be a land-owning, male citizen of Latium with no restrictions or mentions of age. Under the Voting Rights Edict of 1961, all Latin citizens, not felons, and even qualifying Belisarian citizens are eligible to vote in national and local elections. |
 North Ottonia
|
16 | All Class C and Class L citizens are permitted to vote from the time they pass their citizenship examinations. Citizenship exams can be taken beginning at the age of 16, making this functionally the voting age in North Ottonia. That said, people who opt to remain at Class N citizenship cannot vote at all except in municipal elections. |
 South Ottonia
|
20 | All natural-born or naturalized persons (excluding felons) in South Ottonia over the age of 20 are permitted to vote in elections for the Diet and for lower-polity elections. |
 Sante Reze
|
15 | Land-owners were granted voting rights since 1502 under the Ecclesiastical Republic, which inherently included Church leaders and merchant guilds, as well as the nobility. When the Noble Republic was established in 1702, the voting rights were granted to all titled adults, where the age of adulthood was considered fifteen - this barred commons from voting even if they owned land. In 18xx, universal suffrage was enacted for all adults. |
 Sydalon
|
20 | From the introduction of national elections in 1911 until 1946 only male, Catholic land or property owners were eligible to vote in elections, with limited sufferage for women in Petra. It wasn't until the Voting Rights Act of 1946 that suffrage was extended to include all female Catholics. Universal suffrage was later extended to include all citizens in 2004, though religious minorities still face difficulty at polling places. |
 Uluujol
|
18 | Although Uluujol's elections are of little consequence, natural-born and naturalized citizens aged 18 and older are permitted to participate in them. |
 Vannois
|
17 | As of the 2002 Voting Rights Act Amendment, lowered from 20. |
 Vardana
|
18 | The Constitution of Vardana calls for universal suffrage for all citizens over the age of 18. |
 Yisrael
|
21 | Set from the 1954 Vote Franchise Act; lowered from 23 before 1954. |
