The Fhainnin Government is based on the principles of [[Cananachan Republicanism]], which splits the functions of government into four major functions: Executive, Legislative, Judicial, and Budget. 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 legal tradition maintains that rooting out corruption is easier when watching over a concentrated group of people, meaning that as many key functions as possible should be delegated to a dedicated group.

The National Assembly acts as the legislature of Faneria, and is a tricameral body with three houses, referred to as Councils: Peoples', Party, and State. The former two are voted for on a local majority and national proportional basis and headed by the Peoples' and Party Speakers, respectively; the State Council is composed of the Taesteach, the Speakers of the lower houses, several chief ministers, and a representative from the Audit Council. The Taesteach is the Head of Government and additionally leads the Economic Administrative Board, but cannot interfere with meetings of the lower houses outside of a Joint Session of the Assembly. In the event of a meeting of all houses of the Assembly, the Taesteach takes control of proceedings.
'''Linge Chen's Private Reserve(心灵支配液)''' or '''Woozies''' is a brand of carbonated soft drinks manufactured by Opdo Corporation and distributed by the government to captive demographic groups and by the food company [[Agario]] in limited numbers to the general public. It comes in a variety of flavors such as pineapple, guava, orange and lemon. There is a rumored, secret peach flavor variant that collectors have been trying to find for years. All variants of the drink are laced with heavy doses of opium alkaloids such as morphine and codeine in addition to caffeine. This make the drink dangerously addictive and its consumption has grave effects on an individual's psyche and mental stability, hence its nickname of Woozies for the disorienting feeling one gets from drinking it.


The Peoples' Council has one member per county within the fully-integrated Provinces of Faneria (currently 423), and each member served for up to three terms of three years. Party Councilors are based on the number of millions of registered citizens in Faneria (currently 216) and may serve for up to two terms of five years.
The drink is the brainchild of chemists working in secret labs for the [[Xisheng Office of Contentment]]. In its drive to pacify and mentally dull the populations of conquered [[Crona]], the idea to provide them with highly addictive drugs in a surreptitious manner was devised. The internment of almost seventy percent of the Cronan demographic in closed towns dubbed Bliss Camps and their dependency on government rations which include Woozies has made the strategy a resounding success. All households get a box of Woozies every week and the drink is provided free of charge in schools, medical clinics, food banks and prisons. There is a surveillance system in place to ensure the soft drink is consumed by all.


In a tradition taken from [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivian]] culture, the Assembly is not able to be disbanded or dissolved by any legal method; when its members are not met, it is considered to be recessed according to conventional parliamentary tradition. This is still referred to as being out-of-session due to practical reasons of recording.
Leaked reports from visiting functionaries to the bliss camps report a sense of total complacency, sedation and despair as the inhabitants are too drugged to do much apart from shambling from one place to another in a stupor. The leaked reports state that the supply of Woozies is interrupted at random intervals to induce the population to suffer from withdrawal symptoms, to foment their loyalty to their Corummese benefactors and providers of the drinks. Food giant [[Agario]] is looking to get exclusive distribution rights of the drink in [[League-occupied Varshan|occupied Varshan]] and is also in talks with established retail chains to distribute it in [[Sarpedon]].


The specific powers of each house vary, with both lower houses able to propose legislation and motions and pass them by a simple majority. If a bill passes both lower houses, it is approved by the State Council and then signed into law by the Director of the Republic.

The Peoples' Council can, by an independent 2/3 vote, call for the impeachment of a legislator or minister; impeachment of a Taesteach or Director requires a 7/10 majority in the State Council or a 3/4 majority in both lower houses. After impeachment, the impeached official goes before the Audit Council for trial. The unique power of the Party Council is to vote on a budget by simple majority if the Director will not approve of a budget proposed by the Economic Administrative Council by December 12th of the year prior. Both houses combined can demand the Auditing of existing laws by a collective simple majority, giving the Peoples' Council a roughly 2/3 share of the total vote in such a case.

The State Council's only legislative function is as a final simple majority check for a bill before it goes to the Directorate; as the State Council has ten members, the representative from the Audit Council has tiebreaking power. However, its significant overlap in membership with the Audit and Economic Councils makes it the primary informal forum for inter-branch and ministry communication and coordination, and is often attended by the Director and non-member specialists and Bureau and Department ministers for this purpose. This effectively acts as the executive branch's cabinet.

[[Category:Corumm]]
The 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.

[[Category:IXWB]]
The National Economic Administrative Council is the budget-making body of Faneria, and is primarily concerned with accounting for the government and proposing and enforcing the budget. Budgets are approved by the Director; if the Director will not approve a budget by December 12th, approval of one of the proposed budgets goes to the Party Council of the National Assembly.
 
The NEAC also informally coordinates and manages state companies and government procurement programs.
====Auditing====
Main Page: [[National Audit Council (Faneria)|National Audit Council]]
 
The National Audit Council is the chief government court of Faneria, composed of seven Auditors selected from practicing judges by the Director and approved by the Joint National Assembly. It does not hear criminal cases, only constitutional ones. It additionally has the power to rule on the legality of laws, is the deciding body in the impeachment of officials, and commands state security forces. It is nominally run by the Auditor-General, who manages Council meetings but does not have any additional powers.
==Office System==
The mundane functions of the government are organized into eight major Offices, each of which oversees subordinate Bureaus that break down into Departments. Each Office has a general theme, though several smaller Bureaus are lumped into the Office of Civil Services and the Office of State Security that otherwise do not have direct correlations to the typical function of the respective agencies.
 
The '''[[Office of the Treasury (Faneria)|Office of the Treasury]]''' runs the Central Mint and oversees tax collection. It reports directly to the Economic Administrative Council. Its chief minister is the Comptroller-General of the Treasury.
 
The '''[[Office of the National Army (Faneria)|Office of the National Army]]''' manages the armed forces of the state, as well as the commissioning of materials and equipment for said forces. It answers directly to the Directorate. Its chief minister is the Marshal of the National Army, aided by the Hospitaller-General and Quartermaster-General of the Army.
 
The '''[[Office of Foreign Affairs (Faneria)|Office of Foreign Affairs]]''' deals in immigration, emigration, customs, tariffs, foreign aid, and exploration. It is generally under the control of the Economic Administration Council, but foreign relations are under the control of the Director. Its chief minister is the Minister of Trade.
 
The '''[[Office of the Courts (Faneria)|Office of the Courts]]''' manages the justice system along with the Office of Political Security. It additionally liaises with the League of Nations International Court. It responds to the Audit Council, and the Audit Council appoints a Minister of the Courts for managerial duties.
 
The '''[[Office of State Security (Faneria)|Office of State Security]]''' handles policing, prisons, and cybersecurity, as well as acting as an investigatory body with regards to the rest of the civilian government. It responds to the Audit Council and may take requests from the Assembly or the Director with the Audit Council's approval.
 
The '''[[Office of Civil Services (Faneria)|Office of Civil Services]]''' handles welfare services, public health and education, and records services. Its function is technically overseen by the Economic Administration Council, but it is common for a sitting Director to interfere in situations deemed to be of 'immediate national interest', typically through or with the consent of the Taesteach.
 
The '''[[Office of Commerce (Faneria)|Office of Commerce]]''' is tasked with directing state companies, registering professional licenses and various permits, regulating business, and other economic functions. It additionally runs the country's civilian space agency.
 
The '''[[Office of Culture (Faneria)|Office of Culture]]''' handles celebrations, cultural events, culture-related NGOs, and the various monuments, national parks and preserves, and national libraries of the country.

Linge Chen's Private Reserve(心灵支配液) or Woozies is a brand of carbonated soft drinks manufactured by Opdo Corporation and distributed by the government to captive demographic groups and by the food company Agario in limited numbers to the general public. It comes in a variety of flavors such as pineapple, guava, orange and lemon. There is a rumored, secret peach flavor variant that collectors have been trying to find for years. All variants of the drink are laced with heavy doses of opium alkaloids such as morphine and codeine in addition to caffeine. This make the drink dangerously addictive and its consumption has grave effects on an individual's psyche and mental stability, hence its nickname of Woozies for the disorienting feeling one gets from drinking it.

The drink is the brainchild of chemists working in secret labs for the Xisheng Office of Contentment. In its drive to pacify and mentally dull the populations of conquered Crona, the idea to provide them with highly addictive drugs in a surreptitious manner was devised. The internment of almost seventy percent of the Cronan demographic in closed towns dubbed Bliss Camps and their dependency on government rations which include Woozies has made the strategy a resounding success. All households get a box of Woozies every week and the drink is provided free of charge in schools, medical clinics, food banks and prisons. There is a surveillance system in place to ensure the soft drink is consumed by all.

Leaked reports from visiting functionaries to the bliss camps report a sense of total complacency, sedation and despair as the inhabitants are too drugged to do much apart from shambling from one place to another in a stupor. The leaked reports state that the supply of Woozies is interrupted at random intervals to induce the population to suffer from withdrawal symptoms, to foment their loyalty to their Corummese benefactors and providers of the drinks. Food giant Agario is looking to get exclusive distribution rights of the drink in occupied Varshan and is also in talks with established retail chains to distribute it in Sarpedon.
