History

In 1195 new laws were introduced to celebrate 20 years of restoration.

An executive branch was formed out of the imperial council. The various councillors were still subject to the crown. At their creation, there were four councillors, with the monarch representiving the fifth decisive vote. Each councillor was the head of a specialized department and a geographical area of expertise (several provinces). They gave council to the empress, and countersigned (or co-signed) and expedited royal decisions (edicts and declarations). The four departments were:

  • Councillor for Foreign Affairs: oversaw diplomacy and trade.
  • Councillor for War: oversaw border provinces.
  • Councillor for the Navy: oversaw colonial matters.
  • Councillor of the Imperial Household: oversaw the royal entourage, personal military guard, clergy, affairs of the capital, and royal buildings.

An early legislative branch was also formed. The Gizatochi was an early precursor to the Sibiseba. It included representatives from the Tamanyi cities.

Executive

  • The Imperial Council (Oharic: Memakiriti), created in 1175, which was composed of the 4 advisors of the Empress. The Empress would open her personal correspondence and discuss hearings only in the presence of at least 2 councillors. The Council was considered a very important body of government. Some historians even consider it to be more important than the Monarchy itself.

Legislative

  • The Sibiseba (Anglish: Assembly) was established in 1195 as part of the constitutional law reforms, transforming the monarchy into a more deliberative form. The Sibiseba originated as a select committee of fifty nobles, appointed by the Imperial Council, to discuss law abouttaxes, trade, diplomacy, and military matters.
