At the founding of the Republic of Khazaron, the nation was split up into 13 official government districts. Under the current government each of these has an appointed Archon to serve as governor and run the day-to-day operations of their district. Each district has a capital to serve as the center of its' local bueracracy. Archon City serves as both the capital of the country and of the district of Sairion.

Government

Government Type

Autocracy

National Government

The current executive branch of the Dominion of Khazaron is modeled after the Antonine Dynasty of ancient Rome. The leader of the country, the Patriarch, rules for life and has absolute authority over the policies of his government. What often happens though is that the Patriarch will allow for substantial decision making to go on in the National Assembly, as constant overseeing of his government tends to get rather tedious. The Patriarch's heirs are chosen by himself, from a list of qualified individuals who have served next to him and helped him in running the government. The use of primogeniture in Khazaron has been outlawed.

Political Parties

Nationalist Party

This party is seen as generally supporting the positions of the executive branch of the government. They also tend to be on the conservative side, being strongly against capitalism and for strict government control over the economy and major service industries of the nation. The extremists of the party tend to be warkhawks.

Democratic Alliance

These people are an amalgam of the democratic movements that built up in Khazaron in the aftermath of the Six Month War. They favor very liberal policies towards the economy and civil rights. In foreign policy they tend to favor diplomacy first, and military action far last. Extreemists of the party tend to rabidly oppose most positions of the Nationlist Party, and are pushing for the democratization of the whole government.

Workers Party

The Khazaronian equivalent to a communist party. The difference between the Workers, and a normal communist party, is that the Workers are less militant in their ideals. They realize that if the push to much they could be outlawed.

Federal Party

This party basically serves as a half-way point between the Nationlists/Democrats, and the more extreme Workers. They believe in a much less strict form of government regulation over each district. Instead of only the central government appointing overseers and local officials, they want the power passed to the local governors. The name of the party comes from the emphasis of the local federal districts being able to decide for themselves.

Economic Reform

The Khazaronian Party for Economic Reform’s ultimate goal is to seek out legislation and international means to turns Khazaron’s faltering economy into a powerhouse. All other concerns come secondary to them. They believe that once the economy seems to stabilize, the other important issues will follow. They tend to remain neutral in political quarrels.


National Legislature

Khazaron’s National Assembly

Total Number of Members: 26

Current First Archon: Alexander Dinu

Members of the Assembly serve a three year term and can go up for re-election once. The Assembly is lead by the First Archon, who casts the tie-breaking vote and calls the Assembly to order. The First Archon is elected by the people, serves a six-year term and cannot be re-elected. The Assembly’s official job is to bring the concerns of the people to the Patriarch. However, they generally oversee and enact any legislation involved in running the country, unless the Patriarch takes an interest in a particular issue. Members of the Assembly are called Archons and each district is allowed to elect two Archons to send to the Assembly.


Military

The Khazaronian military, most of which sided with the Alliance during the Six Month War, has suffered from years of neglect and abuse by the former Republic government. They where given poor equipment, little funding, and horrid training. Along with this the old government favored using mercenaries to do their fighting for them, which resulted in mass desertions and poor morale. The military, while fiercly loyal to the current government due to their avid support of them during the Six Month War, are still in need of a massive re-equip, and re-organization effort.
