The legislature is called the People's Assembly and is a unicameral body with proportional representation from each region. The Assembly is a parliamentary system led by a Conductor-in-Chief who is elected from among their peers. The Assembly has no related restrictions, but female members are rare. | The legislature is called the People's Assembly and is a unicameral body with proportional representation from each region.

An element of sheikism still remains in local politics where the richest families have outsized influence. They often provide services and decide matters of social significance outside of the government systems. In turn they are elected to local office to ensure these services continue and the weight of the law supports them. | An element of sheikism still remains in local politics where the richest families have outsized influence.

The military of Yanuban has three branches, the Army, the Aeronauticale, and the National Gendarmerie. The Army is 150,000 soldiers divided into 8 Divisions. It has a moderate armored force, comprised mostly of [[Operation Kipling|Kipling-era]] tanks, APCs, and self-propelled artillery, sold to the country by [[Burgundie]] during successive rounds of modernization. The primary firearm is the FN-FAL, also supplied by [[Burgundie]]. | |||
The Aeronauticale is both the air force and the navy of Yanuban. It consists of 13 air wings, of which 5 are fighter/interceptors, 4 are fighter bombers, 2 are strategic airlift/logistics, and 2 are training. The naval contingent is built around 9 frigate squadrons, 5 patrol/coast guard squadrons, and a single [[Second Great War]]-era battleship, which is too expensive to put to sea, but nominally serves as the flagship and its own fleet-in-being. The Aeronauticale also serves the air-defense role and has 32 radar installations and countless anti-air batteries dotted all along its border. | |||
The National Gendarmerie of Yanuban is the national police force of the country. It has approximately 285,400 members and is equipped and trained in the same way as the infantry in the army. Gendarmes are specially trained in riot suppression and as such also carry long batons or truncheons in addition to their FN FALS. The Gendarmerie is organized into 12 geographical police districts, whose size and staffing depends on the number of residents; as well as a Mobile Gendarmerie who have APCs and riot suppression vehicles. | |||
