Government
Founded in November 2006, Licentia quickly developed a democratic government, with many positions spanning several branches. All citizens are entitled to vote in Congress, the legislative body. Everyone has a single vote.
The executive branch is headed by the Prime Minister, who is chosen through a region-wide election once every two months. The Prime Minister appoints members to Cabinet positions including Defense, Foreign Affairs, Immigration, and Information. These ministers lead efforts in their departments, and report to the Prime Minister.
The judiciary consists of the Senate and Governor General. Currently the Senate consists of five members, athough this may change as regional membership expands. Senators are responsible for ensuring the legality of bills and preside over court cases. In any case where a Senator is absent or on trial, then the Governor General steps in to fill the vacancy.
Political Parties
Lichentia has several political parties that people may join. The current parties are the Conservative, Independent, Liberal, Libertarian, and Lichtenia Republican Labour Party.
