The Algosh Republic, as its name would suggest, is a {{wp|federal republic}} employing a basic [[Julian republic|Urcean-style republican system]], with a {{wp|head of state}}, a {{wp|chief executive}}, and a legislative {{wp|head of government}}. Many of the titles and honors included within these republican roles - especially National Hierarch and Hierarch of the Treasury - are modeled after the traditional titles and honors of the military rulers of [[Algoquona]], also called hierarchs, but are instead chosen by election. The nation is governed under the Hierarchical Canon of [[2027]], which serves as the nation's {{wp|Constitution|constitution}}. It reflects the basic {{wp|separation of powers}} implicit within the [[Government of Urcea]] and includes a {{wp|bill of rights}} modeled after the [[Great Bull of 1811]]. | The Algosh Republic, as its name would suggest, is a {{wp|federal republic}} employing a basic [[Julian republic|Urcean-style republican system]], with a {{wp|head of state}}, a {{wp|chief executive}}, and a legislative {{wp|head of government}}.

===The Hierarchs=== | ===The Hierarchs=== | ||
Within the Algosh constitution, there are two Hierarchs - the National Hierarch, who serves as {{wp|head of state}} and symbol of continuity of the Algosh people, and the Hierarch of the Treasury, the {{wp|chief executive}} largely responsible for the day-to-day administration of the state. In the context of a [[Julian republic|Urcean-style republican system]], the National Hierarch's role was inspired by that of the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]], whereas the Hierarch of the Treasury was inspired by the role of the [[Procurator]] in [[Urcea]]. | |||
The National Hierarch is elected a single fifteen year term and uses {{Wp|Regnal name|regnal names and numbering}}, with the name of the Hierarch serving as the {{wp|Regnal year|regnal era}} of the Algosh calendar. The role of the National Hierarch is somewhat limited and serves as a symbolic embodiment of the constitution, but the role does have the authority to appoint both the nation's foreign ambassadors as well as judges. The National Hierarch has a suspensive veto, but this authority can only be used to delay consideration of a measure by the Assembly for six months, and cannot be used more than once on a specific legislative initiative during any term of the Assembly. The National Hierarch is prohibited from having any role in the Algosh military due to the legacy of the [[Algosh coup]], though the nation's disarmed status makes this distinction largely nominal. The office of National Hierarch is non-partisan, and candidates running for it are prohibited by law from being associated with any political party. | |||
The Hierarch of the Treasury is elected nationally to five year terms with no term limit. The office serves as {{wp|chief executive}} and directs the affairs of the government through the role's authority as head of the national treasury. Accordingly, all cabinet officials take direction from the Hierarch of the Treasury. The office functionally oversees the daily affairs of the Republic, serves as the commander-in-chief of the nation's nominal armed forces, and can propose budgets and legislation directly to the National Assembly. The Hierarch also oversees the nation's foreign policy in conjunction with the National Hierarch, as the latter is responsible for appointing the nation's ambassadors and diplomats. | |||
