INTRODUCTION TO THE FEDERAL UNION

.
The Union's Mission

Greetings and welcome to The Federal Union, an inter-regional union with upwards of six-hundred citizens and thirteen-hundred nations. The large number of citizens gives the federation a dynamic political system made up of a number of individuals rather than a handful, with vibrant and competitive elections. The vast collection of ideas ensure the legislature never feels out of touch, while the number of hands on deck help the executive to function and serve the citizens well. The institutions work akin to a large region, however, at the same time, the union strikes a balance between regional sovreignty and creating such a massive and ambitious platform by not impeding on the regional sovereignty, yet giving space for the citizens to discuss and cooperate on a federal level. It is a novel and a fun experiment that is constantly evolving and growing.

The Union's Government

The organisation is led by the President, elected every 4 months in a competitive federation wide elections, which is open to all citizens to participate and vote in. The President has the ability to create committees through executive orders which in turn essentially function as the cabinet. The committees are headed by a committee head and have a number of individuals in it who strive towards a specific goal set by the president. Typically, committees like the Foreign Affairs Committee tasked with handling foreign relations and looking for new regions to interact with, or Regional Affairs Committee tasked with information distribution and organisation of events are popular choices.

While the President and his committees form the executive, the legislature is formed by the bicameral Union Assembly. The lower house, House of Representatives, is elected on the basis of proportional representation with fierce competition between parties. It has 30 seats which are all up for grabs every 2 months. The upper house, the Senate, is nominated by the regions with 2 seats to each of the region in the federation, currently with 8 seats, and is essentially tasked with representing the region's interests in the union. While the Speaker chairs the lower house, the Vice President chairs the upper house. Both the chairs are elected by the members of the house.

The judiciary, led by the chief justice, is nominated by the President and have life terms. All the regions are represented in some capacity in the judiciary. The Supreme Court serves as the apex court of law and is tasked with resolving interregional disputes, keeping an eye on the legislations and making sure they follow the constitution, and so forth.

Each of the bodies are active with a number of citizens involved, as each work independently yet deeply intertwined, keeping the wheel of the union moving forward.
