Texas Government
The government of Texas is a democracy. The Texas Constitution is the basis for all government and law in the region, and it can be changed by a vote on the offsite forum during any of the quarterly elections. The Texas government is organized in a manner similar to the real life United States, with a President, Vice-President, a Cabinet, an Election Commission, and a Representative Council.
President of Texas
The President of Texas is the chief executive officer in the region. The President is the Founder of the region and is responsible for overseeing everything in Texas, which he does admirably. The President has always been Big Tex of NewTexas, and he has always been a tireless protector, promoter, recruiter, and improver for the region.
Vice-President of Texas
The Vice-President of Texas, like all Cabinet members, acts as an advisor to the President. He or she is next in line for the Presidency should anything untoward happen to the President, and can represent the region in a diplomatic capacity similar to that of the President. The current Vice-President is Greenspoint.
Texas Secretary of State
The Secretary of State performs the duties of a chief diplomat, and represents Texas in a diplomatic capacity. He or she coordinates diplomatic efforts in cooperation with the President, and oversees the individual ambassadors and consuls who represent Texas in specific regions as per the alliance or other agreement with that region. The Secretary of State may be called upon by the President to issue official statements on behalf of Texas.
Texas Secretary of United Nations Affairs

Texas Election Commission
The Texas Election Commission oversees the quarterly elections for the region, making sure that each person votes only once and that all votes are counted in an effort to provide true democratic legitimacy to the greatest extent possible. Once the TEC has finalized the results of the voting, the President announces the winners of the elections and directs Texans to the Post-Election party.
Texas Secretary of Internal Affairs
The Secretary of Internal Affairs is responsible for facilitating the functioning of the TRC, making sure that every elected official is informed of their duties and privileges, and coordinating with the rest of the Government. The current Secretary of Internal Affairs is Richard II.
Texas Representative Council
As specified in the Constitution, Texas elects a Regional Council. The Council shall include the Cabinet Members of Texas and enough freely elected citizens of Texas to bring the count of the body up to 10% of the population of Texas at the time of the nominations process. As with all offices, the members of the council are elected during the quarterly elections.
The TRC has traditionally not had all that much to do. The Constitution indicates that they are supposed to deal with such serious problems as breaches of the Constitution and internal disputes, and Texas has been fortunate not to have much of those sorts of problems. A recent Amendment to the Constitution requires that the TRC have a say in alliance requests, which may help to increase activity on the part of the Council.
