Description[?]:
Beluzia's controversial elective monarchy comes as a surprise to the international community. We must establish Beluzia as a global monarchist state to increase our recognition among the people of the world. Beluzia will also be a place of refuge for dethroned monarchs, and peace talks between the IML, ATR and other major Republican or Monarchist factions. -- Each royal family, in the world, is therefore given the right to contest the Beluzian throne by delegating members of its royal family to establish a branch of its house in Beluzia. The leader of that house is then eligible for nomination to the County throne. The candidate with the most votes will be declared "The Count of Beluzia" for a 5 year period. He is responsible for appointing a cabinet if favour is found among the Viscounts. The throne is a symbol of unity of the 5 parishes. A council of 81 Viscounts, from different parishes, will sit below the throne as the federal legislature. --- In a parish, the house with the most votes will receive its own loyalist soldiers to dispatch at will. When a parish is dominated by a royal house or royal family, the said house or family is allowed to consider the parish borders as a part of overseas territories under their rule, but the parishes are still subject to federal Beluzian law where there is a conflict between Beluzian law and the law of the royal family's homeland. If a royal house or family only possesses royalty in Beluzia, the dominated parishes are considered a subnational entity within Beluzia. Only a house's dominated parishes may have loyalist soldiers, for only such a parish falls within the border of the house's reign. House loyalist organizations are regulated by the Beluzia Accord. The nation's federal military is defence-focused, and will not participate unless attacked first. If war is declared on Beluzia, or if there is a perceived threat, the head of state can declare war with the approval of: - The Prime Minister - The Minister of Defence - 3 Counties - 50% of Viscounts If there is a coup within the Parliament of Viscounts, a provisional head of state can be declared and given "de facto" recognition, rendering the de jure Count powerless outside of his own parish and loyalist soldiers. A junta will only last until the following elections. If the junta doesn't recognize the results of the elections, the federal military will act against the junta. |

Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
