Riegaban Government
In Riegab there are three branches of the government, one "The Chancellery", two "The Legislative" Branch, and three "The Justice Branch".
Either the House of Commons or the Senate proposes an idea for a law, then the other house approves it with a majority vote, if they don't it is sent back with changes, this prosses continues untill a final draft can be agreed on, or after so much alloted time the issue is droped. If it is agreed on it goes to the Justice Branch, they judge weather it is constitutional or not, if not it goes back for rewriting. Again if it passes it goes to the Chancellory if it is passed by the Grand Ministry it will become a law, if it is rejected it can go back to the legislative branch for a vote, in this case it's not a majority win, it takes over 66% (2/3) vote to pass it into a law even though the Chancellery disaproved it.
