Listeneisse > Royal Government of Listeneisse

The government of Listeneisse is still for the most part in the hands of the King. The Royal Government of Listeneisse is comprised of secular executive and judicial branches, plus clerical and canonical judicial branches.

Law

The Privy Council - Royal Ministers

The exact composition of the Privy Council changes from time to time. It is a list of those who ostensibly have the opportunity to see the King at any time on a matter of state business.

  • Royal Chamberlain - Responsible for managing royal households, properties and estates.
  • Lord Minister of Finance - Responsible for overall treasury, budget and fiscal policy.
  • Minister of Defense - Civil authority responsible for the defense budget and policy.
  • Lord Marshal - Military authority responsible for leading the armed forces in war and peace.
  • Royal Chancellor - Reviews all laws submitted for the King; chief legal advisor.
  • Lord Constable - Responsible for law enforcement
  • Lord Justicar - Responsible for the secular judiciary
  • Minister of Foreign Relations
  • Archbishop of Listeneisse
  • Minister of the Interior
  • Minister of Culture
  • Minister of Education
  • Minister of Health
  • Minister of Tourism
  • Minister of Transportation

Parliament

There is a parliament which represents each of the provinces, including a parliament for Listeneisse itself. But it is strictly for local -- internal -- law. Parliaments have no power to set national policy without the approval of the Royal Government, or international policy at all except in terms of local and regional interrelations.

Legislature is formally considered something apart from the Royal Government, though legislative representatives have a good chance to make pleas before the King as representatives of the people -- acting as their ombudsmen.
