{{Politics of Rajyaghar}}
The '''Union States and Federal Territories''' of [[Rajyaghar]] are the principal administrative divisions of the Kingdom. The Kingdom is a {{wp|federation}} of 10 Union States and 2 Federal Territories. The Union States and Federal Territories are further subdivided into Provinces and Communes.


The '''Coat of Arms of the [[Rajyaghar|Kingdom of Rajyaghar]]''' has greater and lesser versions.
[Brief history]. The administrative divisions are based on the historical [[Madhyarajyas|middle kingdoms]] of Rajyaghar with all of them retaining their royal families which serve as ceremonial representatives of the Monarch in the Union States and are granted the titles of ''"Rajakumar of the Union State"''. The Federal Districts are governed differently and have different ceremonial representatives of the Monarch. In [[Bishnupur]] it is the High Priest and in [[Kinadica]] it is the Governor.


The Royal Coat of Arms consists of a silver eagle holding the [[Charsidhanism#Symbolism|Charsidhan Chakra]], in silver, all in a blue shield with the royal crown on top.
==History==


The national emblem (''Charsidhan Chakra'') consists of a 24-spoked wheel, representing the [[Administrative divisions of Rajyaghar|24 Union States]], superimposed upon the [[Prateek|pariprateek]] of the Rajana Family, the royal family of Rajyaghar. The national emblem is not a variant of the Royal Coat of Arms. The state emblem of Rajyaghar is similar to the national emblem, but has a {{wp|trishula}} as a supporter behind the Charsidhan Chakra.

The current design of the Royal Arms were introduced in 1956, under Maharaja Krishan VI. Previously, there had been no distinction between the state emblem and that used by the Monarch and royal family. Since 1956, there is a more complex royal coat of arms for the monarchy which is designated as the Royal Coat of Arms.

The current version of the Royal Coat of Arms, commonly known as the Royal Arms, was established by royal decree on 21st June 1956 by Krishan VI. The Royal Arms were created in order to enable a distinction between the emblem used by government institutions, such as the federal and state governments, and the Monarchy, which had, from independence until 1956, been the State Emblem.

The shield, an azure heater, posseses a charge of an argent eagle holding in its dexter and sinister claws the charsidhan chakra in argent. The eagle represents the Monarch of Rajyaghar and its position in holding the charsidhan chakra represents the role of the monarch in their duty to protect, preserve and promote the realm and its peoples. The blue shield represents the maritime history of the Sanyukti Empire, later Naratha Confederacy and modern Rajyaghar and their status as maritime nations.

Two trishulas (tridents) act as supporters; representing the royal authority of the monarch, as trishulas are a common sign of leadership and authority in Rajyaghar, as well as a further representation of the protective role of the Monarch over the realm and to represent their status as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. The shield features the insignia and chain of the Order of the Gryphon, the highest chivalric order in the Kingdom of Rajyaghar. The coronet above the shield is a heraldic depiction of the Rajyani Royal Crown worn by Monarchs on state occasions.
===Colonial Era===


The royal coat of arms is reserved exclusively for use by the Monarch, the royal family, the Shahee Rakshak (Royal Guards) and the Mantriparishad (Royal Court) according to royal decree. The arms have faced criticism by both republicans and hardliners who believe that it is too heavily influenced by [[Euclea|euclean]] {{wp|heraldry}} and too distinct from the designs of native prateeks used across Rajyaghar.

==National Emblem==
 
The '''National Emblem of Rajyaghar''', also known as the ''Charsidhan Chakra'', is the official civil emblem ([[prateek]]) of the [[Rajyaghar|Kingdom of Rajyaghar]].
 
The state emblem consists of the Charsidhan Chakra with a {{wp|trishula}} placed through the chakra. The state emblem has many variants which are used by the [[Central Union Government]], [[Judiciary of Rajyaghar|Supreme Court]] and [[Administrative divisions of Rajyaghar|state governments]].


The national emblem (Charsidhan Chakra) is made up of the pariprateek of the Rajana Family, the royal family of Rajyaghar, and a 24-spoked wheel which represents the unity of the 24 Union States of Rajyaghar.  
The Union States are subdivided into Provinces which are further subdivided into Communes. Federal Districts have Wards rather than Provinces or Communes.

The State Emblem is a variant of the National Emblem and is used by government institutions throughout the Kingdom. The State Emblem comprises the Charsidhan Chakra superimposed upon a Trishula, representing royal authority supporting and maintaining the state. The various institutions, such as the Federal ([[Central Union Government]] and [[Cabinet of Rajyaghar|Ashta Pradhan]]), Judicial ([[Judiciary of Rajyaghar|Supreme Court]]) and [[Administrative divisions of Rajyaghar|State-level Governments]], all use further variations of the State Emblem.
==State Governance==
 
[[File: Admiral Verma.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Governor Siraskiar of Kinadica]]
The Federal Government and its agencies use a version in which the State Emblem is flanked by two pillars, draped in the national flag and topped by the heraldic version of the Rajyani Royal Crown. The Governments of Union States, known as State Governments, uses a version in which the State Emblem is encompassed within a seal with the wording of the seal being: ''Union State Government of [State]''. The seal also bears the coronet of the Rajyani Royal Crown.
Governance of the Union States is divided between the [[Central Union Government|federal]] and state governments. Each Union State has a {{wp|unicameral}} legislature. Following the {{wp|Westminster System|Northabbey model}}, the State Governments are led by First Ministers, who are members of the state legislature from the majority party. State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections.
 
The Judiciary of Rajyaghar uses a version in which the State Emblem is placed upon a maroon shield held by a two-headed eagle, called Nyaykavak (Bearer of Justice). Nyaykvavak's faces look in opposite directions, representing the idea that no one can hide from it. Nyaykavak holds two trishulas which representing the royal authority bestowed on the judiciary. A balance of scales is placed above the it's heads, representing impartiality and fairness within the judicial system. By not being in contact with any part of the emblem, the scales represent impartiality. The emblem is used by all of the judicial institutions of the country, with their names placed below the emblem.

==Regulated Usage==
Governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities; the Provincial and Communal Councils. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, the federal government can request the Monarch to invoke Article X of the Constitution, granting the Governor the right to intervene and potentially suspend the State Government.


The usage of any version of the Coat of Arms is heavily regulated by Rajyani Law. The Emblem of Rajyaghar Act (1946), Royal Decree of 1956 and Defence of the Monarchy Act 1965 all contain clauses related to the use, display and distribution of the Royal Arms, State Emblem and National Emblem.
The federal constitution outlines the following duties to be exercised by the state governments:
* Management of transportation and local infrastructure
* Provision of emergency services (excluding the police since 1965)
* Local planning and zoning
* Education outside of the national curriculum


Any representation consisting of the charsidhan chakra and an eagle, considered to be the royal coat of arms, and its usage is restricted by law. Any representation consisting of the charsidhan chakra and a trishula, considered to be the state emblem, and its usage is also restricted by law. The National Emblem may be used for civilian purposes but this is heavily regulated by the [[Cabinet of Rajyaghar|Ministry of Constitutional Affairs]].
Since independence, the federal government has slowly reduced the powers granted to the state governments, including amending the constitution to transfer any unprescribed powers from state governments to the federal government, which has led to increasing popularity of secession movements in the states of [[Tarkhana]], [[Sasipur]] and [[Pinjar]]. During ''the Emergency'', the 12th Amendment transferred jurisdiction of the police from state governments to the federal government.

State Governance

Governor Siraskiar of Kinadica

Governance of the Union States is divided between the federal and state governments. Each Union State has a unicameral legislature. Following the Northabbey model, the State Governments are led by First Ministers, who are members of the state legislature from the majority party. State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections.

Governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities; the Provincial and Communal Councils. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, the federal government can request the Monarch to invoke Article X of the Constitution, granting the Governor the right to intervene and potentially suspend the State Government.

The federal constitution outlines the following duties to be exercised by the state governments:

  • Management of transportation and local infrastructure
  • Provision of emergency services (excluding the police since 1965)
  • Local planning and zoning
  • Education outside of the national curriculum

Since independence, the federal government has slowly reduced the powers granted to the state governments, including amending the constitution to transfer any unprescribed powers from state governments to the federal government, which has led to increasing popularity of secession movements in the states of Tarkhana, Sasipur and Pinjar. During the Emergency, the 12th Amendment transferred jurisdiction of the police from state governments to the federal government.
