The Council of Commons despite being somewhat subverted by the President in more recent times still holds substantial legislative powers, being able to propose and enforce the implementation of new legislation. While the President too is able to do this they require that the executive branch is cooperative, while the Council of Commons holds extensive abilities to enforce the implementations of their proposals, to a point where they can force the president to dismiss the entire Fire-lit Hall if they fail to properly implement the will of the Commons. The Council of Commons is elected by regional elections held every 3 years, with each region holding a certain number of seats. There is currently no way for the number of seats each region holds to change, despite shifts in population. | The Council of Commons despite being somewhat subverted by the President in more recent times still holds substantial legislative powers, being able to propose and enforce the implementation of new legislation.

Since | Since its, creation the Chakailani government has been made up of two major political parties, although the various factions within the nations and these parties have switched allegiance. These are often simply called the 'left' and the 'right', the 'reds' and the 'whites' with many other nicknames. Officially, the parties are called "Peoples Liberation Party", or PLP, and the "Chakailani Unified Front", or CUF. Since the nation's liberation, the CUF has ruled over the nation, although most observers believe the parties are relatively evenly balanced. | ||

Many of | When they formed the party, it was mainly made up a mixture of more modern nationalists focused on independence and the power necessary for the survival of the nation. Many of its members had sought a more totalitarian state, but compromised on these beliefs to ensure they could free the nation and it's people and adhere to [[Occidental]] terms for aid. The second most important component in the party is a much more reactionary traditionalist movement focused on the ideas of the more distant, local communities that make up most of the nation. The traditionalist component seeks to maintain traditional social ties among tribes and settlements and opposes a "flattening" of society that more modern-minded reformers have proposed. | ||

They are often criticized by their opposition for being too reliant on these foreign powers and allowing corruption to manifest to help serve the interests of foreign companies over the people of the nation. | ||
In the first election the party was opposed in part by a collection of liberal and democratic-focused groups who sided with the Peoples Liberation Party. These groups have distanced themselves from their old allies after they witnessed the left-leaning party become more and more radical in it's beliefs. Because of this they have chosen to loosely align themselves with the CUF in the future. | |||

This was not a surprise for many in the leadership, who knew that they would always have to fight once more to truly save their people. With a combination of various militant socialist and communists as well as the help of the liberals at the time the Peoples Liberation Party was created to be the main component of the faction that claimed itself as the nations liberators. At the time the party only received a a bit over 30% of the vote. This was considered a total failure, and over the course of the next 6 years the party would work hard to rebrand themselves and better gain the trust of the populace. | ||

The largest faction is the Militant Socialists. They don't necessarily believe that the current government as it is implemented needs to be torn down, simply that the nation must implement new socialist policies that focus on helping the people become equals, something the current government has proven totally incapable to do. The originally much smaller, but now quite large secondary faction within the movement is the Communists, who have successfully rebranded themselves from their originally similar views of a more totalitarian state, similar to the views of some of the more hardcore nationalists, but have shifted to a view similar to the CUF's traditionalist wing, seeking to be the main representatives of restoring and modernizing the old traditional communities of the nation, bringing power to local communal councils and heavily decentralizing the nation to become much more focused on the various outlying villages and other rural societies. | ||
