===Local governance=== | ===Local governance=== | ||
As part of the provisions and articles that have been established in the treaty, the Malentine state is required to have a high level decentralization which was applied all the way down to the level of local government. Malentine municipal governments are, as a result, noted for holding a great deal of local power, although this has since became a major burden to the Malentine government as well as the governments of the confederated republics as the exact amount of authority that has been granted to the municipal governments has given them the ability to act as quasi-independent entities within quasi-independent entities. This has effectively created a lot of complications within the Malentine system and has even facilitated the spread of severe corruption in many of these localities as the ability of any of the higher levels of government to effectively enforce corruption measures has been rendered largely ineffective for the most part. | |||
===Political parties and factions=== | |||
{{main|List of political parties in Malentina}} | |||
The confederate nature of the Malentine government as well as the overall power of the socio-political elites in the Senate has nurtured a sort of {{wp|multi-party system}} on the national level while at the same time this has been tempered by a quasi-{{wp|two-party system}} within the Senate. What this means is that within the member legislatures of the Trissembly there exists a wide array of political parties ranging from indigenous ultranationalist conservatives to elitist one-nation conservatives, and from sincere liberal reformists to indigenous nationalist revolutionary socialists along the lines of the ideology expressed in the Starlit Revolution. For all intents and purposes, however, the one-nation conservative parties have largely ruled as the nation's {{wp|dominant party|dominant parties}} since the early 2000s after the Arcerion incident in 2002. | |||
In the Senate, although all members are ostensibly {{wp|independent (politics)|independent}} there exists two major factions and a third minor faction that remains relatively influential. The three factions are the [[Malentine Woqalists|Woqalists]], the [[Malentine Qhapaqists|Qhapaqists]], and the [[Malentine Confederates|Confederates]]. The Woqalists and the Qhapaqists are the two major senatorial factions, and both largely agree on establishing a Malentine monarchy; what kind of monarchy that the two factions want, however, contrast greatly. The Woqalist faction calls for the centralization of the Malentine state along Tierradorian lines with a powerful hereditary monarch known as the Woqali as well as a unicameral legislature elected through direct, popular elections that is headed by a separately-elected and independent head of government that is appointed by the Woqali. The Woqalists argue that this form of government would be ideal in ensuring the fair representation of all demographics. The Qhapaqist factions, on the other hand, calls for a more mild form of centralization along the principles of federalism; this new state would be ruled by a Qhapaq who would be elected by members of his own family, making it a semi-hereditary form of elective monarchy, and will be assisted by a tricameral legislature where the Qhapaq heads a one-man upper house, the aristocracy would comprise the membership of a middle house, and directly-elected politicians would comprise the membership of a lower house, effectively a rationalization and modernization of the North Songun form of government. The Confederate faction mostly consists of senators who do not support either the Woqalist or the Qhapaqist factions, instead preferring the status quo confederacy. | |||
