The '''Imperial Government of Caphiria''', (colloquially referred to as The Imperium) is the national government of the [[Imperium of Caphiria]], which covers 22 Provinces (''Banlieueregio'') and several overseas possessions, colonies, and territories. The Government of Caphiria is organized into three main ''Triumirs'', or branches, which are Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. Power is vested by the Constitution of Caphiria in the [[Imperator]], [[Corcillum]], and Supreme Court, respectively.

In theory, the Imperium of Caphiria operates as a unitary constitutional republic, with ultimate authority in every judicial, executive, and legislative matter being derived from its constitution. In practice however, Caphiria is functionally autocratic (and for all intents and purposes would be an autocratic-caesaropapist constitutional republic), with immense power is vested in a single leader - the Imperator of Caphiria - who serves as head of state and chief executive. Historically, the Imperator ruled by divine right but recently most of the powers of the Imperator have been set forth in Proclamation 9 of the Constitution. This leads to a highly complex system of de jure and de facto authority within the government as powers and duties are not clearly delineated.
