The government of Greater Tralka is effectively a stratocratic republic, where suffrage is earned through military service and public office is reserved for individuals who hold or have held certain military ranks. Greater Tralka has a constitutional government, in that the state is bound by a charter agreed to by its constituent substates.

The Defense Council is the executive branch of the Greater Tralkan federal government. It is a body of currently 20 officials that is responsible for commanding the armed forces and implementing the laws that pass the Assembly of Public Policy. Each of the 20 members is the head of an executive department, whose roles are either defined in the Tralkan Charter or set out by the Assembly when a new department is created. The Defense Council is headed by the Grand Marshal, the effective Head of State, Head of Government, and Commander-in-Chief of Greater Tralka, who must be a sitting member of the Council and is elected by its members every 4 years.
To be appointed to the Defense Council, a candidate must be an active member of the Greater Tralkan armed forces of rank Lieutenant General (or the branch equivalent) or higher. New members of the Defense council are appointed by the Grand Marshal and confirmed by a majority of both the sitting members of the Defense Council and the Assembly.
