Although it seems like Magneto and Xavier are running the show, it's difficult to have dictatorship when everyone on the island could be a potential threat. By sharing the responsibilities, it keeps everyone happy and gives an opportunity for other mutants to be in charge. Thus, the beginning of the Quiet Council of Krakoa.

The council includes X, Magneto, Apocalypse, Mister Sinister, Exodus, Mystique, Sebastian Shaw, Emma Frost, Storm, Jean Grey, Nightcrawler, Cypher, and Krakoa. They also have a team of war chiefs, which include Cyclops, Gorgon, Magik and Bishop. These are the individuals chosen to represent the best interests of the mutants living on Krakoa.

The first thing they establish are the laws of the nation. They keep it simply by only having three major rules:

1) Mutants must make other mutants.

2) Mutants shall not murder humans.

3) The land of Krakoa must be respected

Not only do they decide on the laws that will help the nation succeed, they also put Sabretooth on trial for breaking the second rule while obtaining the information about the Mother Mold. Sabretooth is found guilty by the council and is swallowed up and held captive by Krakoa for his punishment.
