Council of Governors

The Counci Governors (Kapulakan:ᮓᮦᮝᮃᮔ᮪ ᮌᮥᮘᮨᮁᮔᮥᮁSteiner-Richthofen:Déwan Gubernur) is the second chamber of the kapulakan parliament. It consists of the eleven Governors of the Kapulakan Federal Districts and has its seat in the National Council Building in Pusata. The Congress of Governors was created in 1979 to counterbalance the massive population disperity between Poeok and the other states. To forfill this function it has the right to veto every law passed by the People's Congress one time which then has to be revised to fit the proposed changes. The Council of Governors also has to approve of all changes of the constitution and the yearly budget.

People's Congress

The People's Congress of Kapulaka is the main legislative body of Kapulaka.

National Police of Kapulaka

Main article: National Police of Kapulaka

Until 1967 policing was administered locally with every district getting grants to manage law enforecement with Poeok having a special gendarmarie unit to protect the government and also served as the de facto molotary of Kapulaka. This was changed with the National Security Reform Act of 1967 which united all police units in the National Police of Kapulaka. Today the National Police has 900 active duty officers in 16 police departments. It is largely unarmed and cooperates with the Republican Guard in high threat operations.

The Republican Guard (Kapulakan:ᮕᮨᮍᮃᮝᮃᮜ᮪ ᮛᮨᮕᮥᮘᮊ᮪ ᮊᮃᮕᮥᮜᮃᮊᮃSteiner-Richthofen:Pengawal Republik Kapulaka)was originally established in 1962 with the purpose of toppling the Lotulelei regime. After the coup it was at first kept as the security service for the members of government but expanded and created in its modern form in 1967. It currently has 4500 active service members and approximately 5000 reservists. Administratively the Republican Guard is split in Army, Air Force and Coast Guard.

Anti-Poaching Operations

Since 2003 the Republican Coast Guard and Republican Air Force actively fight illegal fishing and whale hunting in both Kapulakas territorial and adjacent international waters. For this they often cooperate with other countries and also NGOs.

Economy

IT-sector

Since the early 2010s the Kapulakan government has begun programs to increase the availability of the Internet throughout Kapulaka. The most important of those programs is "Kapufi" which has the goal of providing a stable, free Wi-Fi connection throughout all Islands. While on the one hand being practical for the local population the main goal of those programs was to attract businesses, especially in the IT-sector. While innitially attarcting some interest the expected hype for Kapulaka stayed out as the country's internet infrastructure and just infrastructure in general was generally seen as lacking. Most of the IT companies that operate in Kapulaka are operated by Kapulakans who studied in Euclea and work as subcontrators to foreign companies. Some international corporations also operate small call centeres in Kapulaka, especially in Pusatoka.
