History
To be written
Politics
The Empire of Caedryn is a constitutional monarchy, similiar to the RL United Kingdom due to its lack of a constitution, and instead relying on traditions. Some have survived the First Interregnum or as it is also called, the First Intermediate Period, while others have come about after Imperator Iulius Vercingetorix reunited the Empire. The Imperator, or Emperor as he is commonly refered to in other polities, is the Head of State and occasionally also the Head of Government. The Head of Government is usually known as the Imperial Chancellor or Consul or President, depending on the whim of the Imperator.
- The legislature is referred to as the Senate, with the Council of Elders being the equivalent of the RL House of Lords and the Plebian Council being the equivalent of the RL House of Commons, with the Council of Elders being comprised of 800 noblemen and the Plebian Council being composed of some 600 people who are, by law, not members of a noble family.
(more on law system later) Foreign Relations
- The Caedrynian Empire has never been particularly active internationally, about the only communications having been a long-forgotten affair about terrorist training camps in the deserts and the odd embassy. The Empire's foreign relations are handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or the Foreign Ministry.
Military
- The Imperial Caedryn Armed Forces are controlled by the Imperial Ministry of War, and have, since the reformation of the Empire, been organized into standard division-sized units called legions, usually numbering around 15 or 16,000 men total. The Imperial Armed Forces are organized into the Imperial Army, Imperial Navy, and Imperial Air Force.
