The Andaluni landscape is noted primarily for its mountainous nature, with mountains extending across most of the eastern half of the country.

Andaluni is a parliamentary democratic republic with a multi-party system. The last parliamentary elections were held on 29 February 2020 and two rounds of presidential elections took place on 16 and 30 March 2019.
The Andaluni head of state and the formal head of the executive is the president (currently Zuzana Capolva, the first female president), though with very limited powers. The president is elected by direct, popular vote under the two-round system for a five-year term. Most executive power lies with the head of government, the prime minister (currently Jacobs Ursanta), who is usually the leader of the winning party and who needs to form a majority coalition in the parliament. The prime minister is appointed by the president. The remainder of the cabinet is appointed by the president on the recommendation of the prime minister.
Although Andaluni officially has a monarch, the current King, Refujio Garmulan, has not held any official authority over the government, armed forces, or legal proceedings since 1893. The status of the monarchy is officially ceremonial, and the reigning monarch presides over opening ceremonies and christening of government offices.
Andaluni's highest legislative body is the 150-seat unicameral National Council of Andaluni. Delegates are elected for a four-year term on the basis of proportional representation. The government meets in the capital of Nora.
Andaluni's highest judicial body is the Constitutional Court of Andaluni, which rules on constitutional issues. The 13 members of this court are appointed by the president from a slate of candidates nominated by parliament.
