Ministry of Public Awareness(Propaganda Ministry)
NOTE: Often times the role of one of His Majesty's Ministers, and a Great Officer of State will be in the same. But in these cases, the Officer of State takes precedent, and is usually the immediate superior of the Minister. The Minister therefore serves as a sort of Deputy and co-head to the Great Officer of State.
The Royal National Security Agency (RNSA)
Supposed to "not-exist", but most in the media and news know that the King has secretly put this agency into place, but not much else. Their supposed headquarters have been placed in an strange old castle deep in the Aerion mountains, under Astevane (the capital), or even within the Central (Royal) Palace itself. Conspiracy theorist are alledging that the King has appointed some of the secret police of old regimes to fill the ranks of the RNSA to make it more "efficient", though most do not give any credibility to these wild stories.
