==Politics and government==
Torlen is part of the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]]'s [[Geography_of_Burgundie#Wintergen|Polar Burgundies]] geographic designation. [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]] is a constituent country equivalent of [[Burgundie]] with its own assembly, prime minister, budget, and laws. [[Burgundie]]'s national governmental influence is limited to subsidies, education, and security, however, its financial and cultural institutes cast a long shadow across Torlen.
Torlen is a province within [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]] with its own semi-elected {{wpl|Governor}}-{{wpl|Epistates}}, representative legislative body, and court system.
Torleniens are Burgoigniacs/Burgoignix with complete civil and economic rights, and citizenship (political rights) under the same federal service criteria as all residents of [[Burgundie]]. [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] is the official language.
===Provincial executive===
[[File:Château_de_Moulinsart.jpg|200px|right|Chateau of the {{wpl|Governor}}-{{wpl|Epistates}}.]]
The provincial executive is the {{wpl|Governor}}-{{wpl|Epistates}}. Three candidates are elected by a {{wpl|single transferable vote}} election held every 5 years, the three candidates are presented to the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Executive_Branch|Court of St. Alphador]] and the next {{wpl|Governor}}-{{wpl|Epistates}} is chosen from these candidates. If the citizenry rejects the selection, a run-off election is held with the remaining two candidates.
===Provincial legislature===
Like the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Legislative_Branch|Citizens Court of the National Assembly (Burg. La Assemblee de Ciutadans de l'Assemblee Nacional, ACAN)]], The Torlen Citizen's Court of the Provincial Assembly is a unicameral legislator. It makes provincial law, has the power of the provincial purse, and has the power of impeachment, by which it can remove sitting members of the provincial government. The Assembly has three seats for each province, one for the [[Government_of_Burgundie#Constituent_Countries|Burgoignesc Overseas Territory Assembly]]'s Torlen liaison, 3 for the clergy, 3 seats reserved for municipal leaders, and 3 for a rota of private business leaders. On 6 occasions throughout the year 3 more seats are opened to the public to debate topics that are not on the annual legislative agenda.
