The monarchy of Esonice, also referred to as the Esonian monarchy, or more commonly as the Serene Monarchy is a {{wp|constitutional monarchy|constitutional}} {{wp|Hereditary monarchy|hereditary}} {{wp|monarchy|monarchy}} in which the powers of the Serene Monarchy are defined by the Esonian constitution. The hereditary sovereign is the {{wp|head of state|head of state}}, acting as a figurehead of the {{wp|Esonice|Serene Kingdom of Esonice}} and within the current constitution of Esonice is called "the symbol of the Serene Kingdom and its people".
'''The Serene Monarchy''', also referred to as the Esonian Monarchy, is the traditional {{wp|monarchy|monarchy}} of the [[Esonice|Serene Kingdom of Esonice]]. It is defined as a {{wp|hereditary monarchy|hereditary}} {{wp|theocracy|monarcho-theocratic}} {{wp|institution|institution}} in which the reigning {{wp|monarch|monarch}} {{wp|legitimacy|legitimasies}} his or her rule by claiming descent and/or claiming to be the {{wp|avatar}} {{wp|incarnation|incarnation}} of the {{wp|myth|mythical}} "{{wp|demigod|demigod}}" [[Serene Monarchy#Legend of Jinjin|Jinjin]], the first Serene Monarch allegedly descending from [[Shinshi|Bimotarasu]] and [[Shinshi|Tsukomichibiku]], the San and Mun [[Shinshi#spirit|Spirits]] and rulers of [[Shinshi|Heaven]] who granted Jinjin {{wp|Son of Heaven|supreme dominion}} over all {{wp|Tianxia|under Heaven}}.
 
In Esonian political ideology, the Serene Monarch or Emperor, in [[Esonian language|Esonian]] known as the "''Jinnō''" (神皇, literally "{{wp|Son of Heaven|divine ruler}}" or "{{wp|Heavenly Sovereign|divine sovereign}}" and sometimes but rarely "god-emperor"), is a {{wp|universal monarchy|universal monarch}} who has {{wp|absolute monarchy|absolute authority}} over the Eurth, acting as the bridge between the [[Shinshi|realm of the living]], the [[shinshi|realm of spirits]] and Heaven. As such, the Serene Monarch plays a very important role in Esonice's indigenous [[Shinshi|Shinshist]] beliefs, having to balance appeasing the spirits to avoid their wrath on the realm of the living and the needs of the people. To help the Serene Monarch in his role, the "[[Serene Monarchy#The Five Principles of Rule|''The Five Principles of Rule'']]" ([[Esonian language|Esonian]]: 統治五原則, tӧchi go gansoku) were developed in the 11th century A.D by Shinshi {{wp|priest|priests}}, encompassing that the Serene Monarch has to adhere to the {{wp|principle|principles}} of {{wp|altruism|benevolence}}, {{wp|righteousness|righteousness}}, {{wp|Integrity|integrity}}, {{wp|courage|courage}} and {{wp|Wisdom|wisdom}} in his rule. 
 
Today, since 1941, the Serene Monarch plays largely a {{wp|Constitutional monarchy|ceremonial role}}. The Serene Monarch's role is recognised by the [[Esonice#politics|Inmin Constitution]] as the symbol of Esonice representing its people both at home and abroad, his position deriving from "the will of the {{wp|nation|nation}} from whom resides sovereign power", also recognised as the head of the Shinshi religion. In accordance with the Inmin Constitution and legal rulings, the Serene Monarch is personally {{wp|sovereign immunity|immune}} from prosecution. Since the early 11th century, the Serene Monarch and other members of the Serene Imperial Family have resided in the [[Maimedo#Orange Palace|Orange Palace]] in [[Maimedo|Maimedo]], located in the historic core of the city where once stood a {{wp|gord (archaeology)|Yasic gord}}.

The Esonian monarchy is deeply rooted in royal traditions and duties of the traditional Esonian monarchy and the [[arikai|Arikai faith]] that distinguish it from other forms of constitutional monarchism on [[Eurth]]. Due to the Esonian belief of the [[Arikai|Mandate of Heaven]], which is granted to the Esonian Serene Family by the Sun and Moon Ari spirits, the Serene Monarch acts as an unofficial religious head of the Arikai faith. Acting as a bridge between the spiritual world and the physical world to ensure peace and stability and to maintain good relations with the Ari spirits. Other members of the Serene Family also perform many ceremonial, representational and social duties, but have no role in the affairs of the Esonian government.

The Serene Monarchy, also referred to as the Esonian Monarchy, is the traditional monarchy of the Serene Kingdom of Esonice. It is defined as a hereditary monarcho-theocratic institution in which the reigning monarch legitimasies his or her rule by claiming descent and/or claiming to be the avatar incarnation of the mythical "demigod" Jinjin, the first Serene Monarch allegedly descending from Bimotarasu and Tsukomichibiku, the San and Mun Spirits and rulers of Heaven who granted Jinjin supreme dominion over all under Heaven.

In Esonian political ideology, the Serene Monarch or Emperor, in Esonian known as the "Jinnō" (神皇, literally "divine ruler" or "divine sovereign" and sometimes but rarely "god-emperor"), is a universal monarch who has absolute authority over the Eurth, acting as the bridge between the realm of the living, the realm of spirits and Heaven. As such, the Serene Monarch plays a very important role in Esonice's indigenous Shinshist beliefs, having to balance appeasing the spirits to avoid their wrath on the realm of the living and the needs of the people. To help the Serene Monarch in his role, the "The Five Principles of Rule" (Esonian: 統治五原則, tӧchi go gansoku) were developed in the 11th century A.D by Shinshi priests, encompassing that the Serene Monarch has to adhere to the principles of benevolence, righteousness, integrity, courage and wisdom in his rule.

Today, since 1941, the Serene Monarch plays largely a ceremonial role. The Serene Monarch's role is recognised by the Inmin Constitution as the symbol of Esonice representing its people both at home and abroad, his position deriving from "the will of the nation from whom resides sovereign power", also recognised as the head of the Shinshi religion. In accordance with the Inmin Constitution and legal rulings, the Serene Monarch is personally immune from prosecution. Since the early 11th century, the Serene Monarch and other members of the Serene Imperial Family have resided in the Orange Palace in Maimedo, located in the historic core of the city where once stood a Yasic gord. Previously, the Serene Monarch reigned from Hasakyō on the Nagaoka Peninsula on Lake Bishimu. The Serene Emperor's Birthday (currently 24 September) is a national holiday.

Minari is the current Serene Emperor of Esonice, ascending to the Hibiscus Throne at the age of 15 after the tragic demise of Serene Emperor Jüteku and his mother in 1991 in the 1991 Tenchi Airlines Disaster while returning from Selbourne, Seylos to Maimedo.
