Government

The Imperium is a constitutional monarchy ruled over by Emperor Alexis Calimar, son of the late Hereditary President William Calimar. He and his Cabinet make up the apex of the executive branch of the Imperial government. The Cabinet members each control one of the government ministries, ranging from Foreign Policy to Health and Education. Parliament makes up the legislative branch, and consists of a House of Lords and a House of Commons. The Lords are all nobles, either hereditary or life, and new members must be confirmed by a majority vote of existing members before taking their seat. The Prime Minister is typically elected by the party that controls the Lords, which is currently the Crown Loyalists. The Liberal party and Conservative League make up the two other major parties in the Lords, with a few independent members. The Commons are elected by the general public every two years. The Judicial branch is overseen by a panel of eleven Justices, who serve for life or until they choose to retire. The Justices are appointed by the Emperor and confirmed by a majority vote of the Lords.


Culture

Vernii's business and government fashion could best be described as a mix of Vernii's old corporate themes and Valinor imperial fashions. Three piece suits are back in style, along with business suits that have a more severe military cut to them. Teen fashions are a wide range of styles, ranging from skimpy outfits to rather conservative clothing.

The movie and digital entertainment businesses continue to grow at a high rate, especially since the debut of Nu-space technology allowing citizens from different systems to share information and media. Nu-space has revolutionized the entertainment industry, and provided new opportunities for businesses. Managers and stockholders can now have real-time conferences throughout the Imperium, and people who would otherwise never know of one another's existences now mingle freely in the virtual worlds and plazas created in the Nu-space network.
