Government

The Federal Republic of Ashlavar's government has three branches including the Judicial, Legislative, and Executive branches. These branches in the Ashlan government are designed to share power, based on Baron de Montesquieu's idea of the balance of powers, so that no one branch can be too powerful.

Legislative

The legislative branch consists of the Ashlan Congress. Ashlavar has a single house congress that consists of 300 congressmen and women (60 for each of the five states). This branch proposes and debates laws, while voting to see if it is allowed to reach the President. The leadership of this branch consists of the Congressional President (who mediates Congressional debate), the Majority leader (the Congressman or woman who is incharge of the majority party), the Minority leader (the Congresman or woman who is incharge of the minority party), and other minor positions that are appointed by the Majority and Minority leaders.

Judicial

The Judicial branch consists of all courts within Ashlavar, weather local, state, or federal. All of which, except local (which only has courts of law), have both constitutional courts and courts of law. Constitutional courts only hear cases that question the constitutionality of a law while courts of law convict criminals.

Executive

This branch consists of the President and his staff who lead the nation. The President may veto bills and propose bills of his or her own into congress.

Ashlavar has a staunch two party system that consists of the Libertarian-Conservative Party and the Progressive Party.
