The region is represented by the president of the region which is directly and democratically elected through regional elections by universal suffrage among all citizens of the region. | |||
Administrative functions are attributed to the regional junta, made up of assessors appointed by the president of the region to represent the political forces that supported him. | |||
The region has a regional parliament, an equivalent collegial body of Parliament at the state level, composed of regional councilors (the number of which is proportional to the region's population) representing all the political forces of the territory with the functions of approving the regional budget, resolutions and provisions issued by the president / junta. The parliament exercises legislative power for the matters that the Constitution delegates to the exclusive or concurrent legislative power of the region. | |||
====Counties==== | |||
Regions are further subdivided into a number of counties. | |||
The administrative organization of a county is the following: | |||
At the head of the county there is the county mayor, democratically elected through county elections by universal suffrage among all municipal citizens, with executive powers together with the county council, a collegial body composed of a variable number of county councilors appointed by him to represent the political forces that support him (equivalent of the council of ministers and the head of government at the state level). The county mayor resides in the county hall during his work with a term of office that lasts 4 years unless he resigns or dies. | |||
Supervising everything is the county council, an equivalent collegiate body of Parliament at the state level, made up of county councilors representing all the political forces of the territory with the functions of approving the municipal budget, the resolutions and provisions issued by the county mayor / council ( e.g. ordinances). In addition to the figure of councilor and councilor, another key figure at the administrative level is that of the county secretary. The administrative activity typically takes place in the county hall which also acts as a place with direct relations with citizens. | |||
The county is responsible for the administration of the territory as regards: | |||
definition and compliance with the annual municipal budget; | |||
definition and compliance with the municipal general plan; | |||
management of municipal roads; | |||
management of public buildings; | |||
waste disposal; | |||
management of critical issues related to bad weather and natural disasters; | |||
county level public transportation. | |||
If a county has more than one inhabitated settlement, it is further subdivided into cities and fractions, depending on population. The county council may approve ordinances that only apply to a certain city or fraction. While a fraction does not have any political organs, a city has it's own city major and city council, both of which are voted every 4 years (at the same time as the county elections). The administration responsibility of a city is variable between counties. | |||

The Valorean Armed Forces are the armed forces of Valorea, with the President of the Republic as its commander-in-chief. They are divided into four Arms: the [[Valorean Republicam Army|Valorean Republican Army]] ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''Esercito Repubblicano Valoreano''), the [[Valorean Republican Navy|Valorean Republican Navy]] ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''Marina Militare Repubblicana Valoreana''), the [[Valorean Republican Airforce|Valorean Republican Airforce]] ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''Aeronautica Repubblicana Valoreana'') and the [[Arm of Carabineers|Arm of Carabineers]] ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''Arma dei Carabinieri''). Complementing the four arms, there are also two Independent commands under the Joint Armed Forces Command: the Medical Support Brigade, which with its {{wp|Field hospital|field hospitals}} can intervene in military conflicts as well as help the civilian population in case of natural calamities or other emergencies, and the {{wp|ISTAR|ISTAR}}-{{wp|Electronic_warfare|EW}} Brigade, which provides the Valorean Armed Forces varied intelligence assets as well as electronic warfare equipment and personell. | |||
The Armed Forces are controlled by the Ministry of Defence, with the Carabineers falling under joint control of the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, since it acts as the State Police Force as well. The commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces is the President of the Republic (currently: Cesare Mezzarin), which has at its disposition the Joint Armed Forces Command. The Command is formed by the President, the Minister of Defence, the Chief of Staff of each Arm of the Armed Forces, the Director (or a delegate of his) of the [[Valorean Intelligence Service]] and a Joint Chief of Staff. | |||
Valorea has an estimated defence budget of $3.742.501.639, which is 2.9% of the National GDP. The Armed Forces are heavily reliant on imported military equipment, since defence industries are negligible and only produce limited quantities of equipment. Most of the equipment is imported from [[Treaty of Avelon|NVO]] and [[ECDTO]]. | |||
Valorea is an NVO associate, meaning that the Valorean Armed Forces get easier equipment import agreements with the member nations, can participate in international training programs (some of which run in Valorean Territory) and take part in NVO joint Missions, while not being part of the Mutual Defence Agreement. That has given acces to the Valorean Armed Forces to a higher standard of training compared to the Asteria Inferior counterparts, and to fairly modern equipment despite the small budget. | |||

The region is represented by the president of the region which is directly and democratically elected through regional elections by universal suffrage among all citizens of the region.
Administrative functions are attributed to the regional junta, made up of assessors appointed by the president of the region to represent the political forces that supported him.
The region has a regional parliament, an equivalent collegial body of Parliament at the state level, composed of regional councilors (the number of which is proportional to the region's population) representing all the political forces of the territory with the functions of approving the regional budget, resolutions and provisions issued by the president / junta. The parliament exercises legislative power for the matters that the Constitution delegates to the exclusive or concurrent legislative power of the region.
Counties
Regions are further subdivided into a number of counties.
The administrative organization of a county is the following:
At the head of the county there is the county mayor, democratically elected through county elections by universal suffrage among all municipal citizens, with executive powers together with the county council, a collegial body composed of a variable number of county councilors appointed by him to represent the political forces that support him (equivalent of the council of ministers and the head of government at the state level). The county mayor resides in the county hall during his work with a term of office that lasts 4 years unless he resigns or dies.
Supervising everything is the county council, an equivalent collegiate body of Parliament at the state level, made up of county councilors representing all the political forces of the territory with the functions of approving the municipal budget, the resolutions and provisions issued by the county mayor / council ( e.g. ordinances). In addition to the figure of councilor and councilor, another key figure at the administrative level is that of the county secretary. The administrative activity typically takes place in the county hall which also acts as a place with direct relations with citizens.
The county is responsible for the administration of the territory as regards:
definition and compliance with the annual municipal budget; definition and compliance with the municipal general plan; management of municipal roads; management of public buildings; waste disposal; management of critical issues related to bad weather and natural disasters; county level public transportation.

While a fraction does not have any political organs, a city has it's own city major and city council, both of which are voted every 4 years (at the same time as the county elections). The administration responsibility of a city is variable between counties.

Military
The Valorean Armed Forces are the armed forces of Valorea, with the President of the Republic as its commander-in-chief. They are divided into four Arms: the Valorean Republican Army (Vespasian: Esercito Repubblicano Valoreano), the Valorean Republican Navy (Vespasian: Marina Militare Repubblicana Valoreana), the Valorean Republican Airforce (Vespasian: Aeronautica Repubblicana Valoreana) and the Arm of Carabineers (Vespasian: Arma dei Carabinieri). Complementing the four arms, there are also two Independent commands under the Joint Armed Forces Command: the Medical Support Brigade, which with its field hospitals can intervene in military conflicts as well as help the civilian population in case of natural calamities or other emergencies, and the ISTAR-EW Brigade, which provides the Valorean Armed Forces varied intelligence assets as well as electronic warfare equipment and personell.
The Armed Forces are controlled by the Ministry of Defence, with the Carabineers falling under joint control of the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, since it acts as the State Police Force as well. The commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces is the President of the Republic (currently: Cesare Mezzarin), which has at its disposition the Joint Armed Forces Command. The Command is formed by the President, the Minister of Defence, the Chief of Staff of each Arm of the Armed Forces, the Director (or a delegate of his) of the Valorean Intelligence Service and a Joint Chief of Staff.
Valorea has an estimated defence budget of $3.742.501.639, which is 2.9% of the National GDP. The Armed Forces are heavily reliant on imported military equipment, since defence industries are negligible and only produce limited quantities of equipment. Most of the equipment is imported from NVO and ECDTO.
Valorea is an NVO associate, meaning that the Valorean Armed Forces get easier equipment import agreements with the member nations, can participate in international training programs (some of which run in Valorean Territory) and take part in NVO joint Missions, while not being part of the Mutual Defence Agreement. That has given acces to the Valorean Armed Forces to a higher standard of training compared to the Asteria Inferior counterparts, and to fairly modern equipment despite the small budget.
