Government

England operates through a loose system of Cabinet government, headed by the delegate. Elections are held every three months and results are determined through a plurality system. The Cabinet decides all policy but important issues are sometimes put to the region to decide. Individual ministers are very much responsible for their own departments and the rest of the Cabinet acts as an advisory body to each minister as decisions are made. Leading, long-term members of the government include His Majesty, Simooooo and Resine.

Foreign Policy

England advocates a foreign policy in line with what is known as the 'defender' school of thought in NationStates. We maintain that invasions of regions should not occur under any circumstances, hence our membership to the ADN (Alliance Defence Network). This however, has not always been the case. Historically, England has remained fairly neutral on in regards to foreign policy except when regions close to home are concerned, such as Northern Ireland. It is only recently, through our written treaties with the USK and The Proletariat Coalition, that we have participated in the defending and liberating of other regions.

England was once a leading member in the alliance established by Acasia of the region Imperial Britain - SABRE or Sovereign Alliance of British REgions. SABRE brought together many British regions and even brought Ireland into Alliance, though many subsequent troubles caused the fall of that alliance. A similar situation occurred with the Allied British Isles, an alliance founded by England's Foreign Secretary, Simooooo, which fell foul due to internal differences.
