Lapody is a {{wp|unitary}} {{wp|constitutional monarchy|constitutional}} {{wp|hereditary monarchy}} and is largely based on some similar constitutional monarchies of its predecessors in the [[Deric States]]. The head of state is the King. Upon formation of the Kingdom of Lapody, two of the three states which joined were {{wp|republic}}s, and consequently the Grand Duke of Loreseia was elevated as King of the country following a period of negotiations; accordingly, Lapody is ruled by the royal House of Guovia, who have ruled parts of Loreseia since the [[Great Confessional War]]. The King of Lapody's role in government is relatively limited, both in part due to Loreseian traditions and due to the agreement which established the Kingdom. Analysts have called the Lapodian monarch the "weakest in the [[Levantine Union]]", serving primarily as a figurehead operating only on {{wp|constitutional advice}} from the elected government. As a symbolic gesture, the first King of Lapody was coronated by [[Riordan VIII|Riordan]], [[Emperor of the Levantines]] and [[Apostolic King of Urcea]], to solidify the historic legitimacy of the Kingdom.
