Faneria is formally a {{Wp|Unitary state|Unitary}} [[Cananachan Republicanism|Quaternalist]] {{Wp|Republic}}, and practices a complex balance of power that somewhat favors its head of state, the [[Directorate of the Republic of the Fhainn|Director of the Republic]]. Its head of government is the [[Taesteach of the Republic]], who oversees the legislature, which is functionally a three-chambered body; however, its upper chamber is made up of members of government during their terms rather than being specifically elected for the position. Its Quaternalist ideology breaks the government into Executive, Legislative, Audit, and Fiscal branches, with the Audit and Fiscal branches differing from Romance Occidental legal traditions.{{Template:Fhainnin Politics}}

The Fhainnin Government is based on the principles of [[Cananachan Republicanism]], which splits the functions of government into four major functions: Executive, Legislative, Audit, and Fiscal. In three-branched governments, the budget is decided by the legislature, but Republican theorists in Faneria felt this gave too much power to quickly-rotating officials without any guarantee of skill in actually managing finance; in addition, Fhainnin political tradition separates the budget from direct legislative power as a check on corruption.

The [[Directorate of the Republic of the Fhainn|Director of the Republic]] is the Head of State of Faneria, and has ultimate control over general foreign policy, military operations, and some security operations. The Director's primary restraint in foreign policy is that a declaration of war must be issued with the consent of the National Assembly. The Director also signs bills into law, approves a budget passed to them by the NEAC, and appoints provincial Governors. They may also nominate Auditors.
