Background
On June 17, 2015, Queen Safa Nieves of Serman Island was overthrown and replaced by a provisional government composed of members of the Committee of Safety. The Queen's Head Advisor (Sir Theodore Cameron) conspired with the citizens of the island nation to overthrow the monarchy. After the overthrow, Lawyer Rayyan T. Ford, a citizen of Serman Island, became President of the Republic when the Provisional Government of Serman Island ended on July 4, 2015. Controversy ensued in the following years as the Queen tried to regain her throne, with factions seperating between the President and the Queen. A civil war eventually broke out, with both the Western Palace -the palace used by the Queen as a summer retreat previous to the coup and as permanent residency prior to the civil war - and the President's Mansion being destroyed, along with a lot of the nation's infrastructure. In the remnants of the Republic, the factions soon made a compromise and each sent a delegate to what remained of the original Palace.
The Convention lasted about 2 weeks and after a lot of debating, created a Federal Republic of 4 States that would elect a Governor-General to oversee the Federation and appoint advisors and Federal department chairs. Each of the states would also elect a Governor of their state who would act as the state representative and help to form National Laws, as well as to act as the Governor of their independent state, overseeing their state and appointing advisors and State department chairs. Each state was also to create a legislative branch within their constitution before they would be accepted into the federation. There were no strict requirements created at the convention on what the legislative bodies had to look like, expect that they had to be elected and that they had to serve equal to the Governor, not at a lower position then.
