Erdland is a unitary totalitarian one party state, where the All-Erdlandish Farmers' and Workers' Party and the State Elder rule autocratically by a constitution and political authority which they themselves created. The party and elder are the supreme authority within Erdland. According to the constitution of Erdland, Erdland is a "beacon of unity and united struggle". The Farmers' and Workers' Party controls all political aspects of Erdlandish lives, as all political offices as required to be a member of the AE-FWP. The State Elder, officially the 'Paramount State Elder of the Nation', is the highest form of power within Erdland and has been described as a dictator by foreign sources. The State Elder is the head of all major governing structures such as the military, party, and executive government. The State Elder is elected by an internal council in the AE-FWP, which is composed of trusted Erdlandish Socialists and inner circle members.
Legislative power within Erdland is held by the unicameral Erdlandish Althinge. Compromised of 250 seats, its membership is elected by the general population every 4 years. Candidates are required to be members of the AE-FWP, making the electoral process more or less a front to instill confidence within the populace that there is a democratic system within Erdland. Universal suffrage is ensured and codified within Erdland, as the constitution states that all citizens of Erdland are entrusted with the same right of voting. The Althinge is known for the fact that it holds no real power, being described as an expensive act by both citizens and foreigners alike, since the Althinge only works to codify and formalize policies and decisions already made within the AE-FWP. The Deputy State Elder is elected by the Althinge, and works as the chief speaker and head of the legislature.
Erdland is a highly centralized unitary state divided into 6 administrative regions known as Landsers. Each Landser is headed by a Landserleidtog (Landser Leader) who is appointed by the State Elder. Landsers were the result of streamlining regional administration in Erdland, replacing the pre-1974 regions known as Heymvads.
