Governance

Arcanstotska is a representative democracy organized as a unitary, semi-presidential republic. As Arcanstotska has been a republic since 1848, as well as one of a few select republics on Craviter, democratic traditions and values are deeply rooted in Arcanstotskan cultural and political identity. The current constitution dates back to 1858 with the Second Republic's transitionary period, transforming into a democracy and abandoning its previous emergency dictatorship under Kariyev. The Constitution of the Second Arcanstotskan Republic created a framework for the nation's government, consisting of legislative, executive, and judicial branches, each with their own powers, responsibilities, and restrictions.

The executive branch of government has two leaders. The President, currently Sidorov Pevlovich, serves as the head of state, elected directly by universal adult-suffrage to serve a maximum of two consecutive five-year terms in office. The Prime Minister, currently Anton Tsvetayev, is the head of government, appointed by the President of the Second Republic to organize and lead the Government of Arcanstotska. The President has the power to circumvent the National Assembly by submitting referendums directly to the public; the President also appoints judges and civil servants, negotiates and ratifies treaties and agreements with foreign nations, and serves as Commander-in-Chief of the military. The Prime Minister determines public policy and oversees the civil service, with an emphasis on domestic affairs.

The legislature is a unicameral body known as the National Assembly of the Second Republic (Национальное собрание Второй республики, Natsional'noye Sobraniye Vtoroy Respubliki) which directly represents the Arcanstotskan people.
