Role

Carucere has a de-facto fusion of a presidential and a collegiate system. While the President decides the direction and priorities of the Government as the permanent presiding officer, ultimately executive power is collectively wielded by the Council. While the President can wield some political influence as de facto head of state, ultimately their de facto power relies on a supportive National Council, and is not directly attributed to the post of president. Traditionally the Council operates "above" ethnic partisanism, representing the entire country instead.

The Council's greatest power is their ability to appoint Preimers and the members of the Cabinet. However, since the Senate must approve new appointments by a majority vote, the deputies named by the Council must be supported by the Senate, or the candidate will be denied. The National Council has the discretionary power to dissolve the Senate when they see fit, such as when the National Council is unable to govern due to the Senate's disapproval. The Council must promulgate all laws enacted by the Senate or the Government for them to come into force. However the President has the authority to veto laws, although the Senate can override this by a two-thirds majority vote. The president may also refer the law for review by the Constitutional Council if the Council votes to doubt its constitutionality. The National Council also has legislative initiative by enacting decrees with the full force of law and by submitting legislation to the Senate.
