Ultimately even captain-princes are accountable to the Electorate and the people as a whole, but of course there's all kinds of misdirection and emergency acts set up to try and minimize that. Politics, you know.
My career was accelerated in crisis to something of an absurd rate, as I was in a good position to advance and made several fortunate calls. And I suppose it was advantageous to various parties. I don't know how long it typically takes Radchaai responsible for a few hundred men to become Fleet-Captains, but I was elevated in about two years.
