Politics
Mirina is a unitary state under a constitutional monarchy. The current monarch is Imila II, who acts as the head of state. The constitution grants the monarch a wide berth of executive and ceremonial powers. The monarch presides over the Privy Council; appoints the premier, by convention from the largest political party, and on recommendation from the latter appoints the members of the government. The monarch is also granted the power to terminate the tenure of any minister, and to unilaterally dissolve parliament, suspend the constitution, call for new elections, or rule by decree. Formally the monarch is commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
Currently Mirina is considered to be a hybrid regime, with the 2018 Asuran Freedom and Liberty Index report describing the country's constitution as allowing "an autocracy dressed as a democracy." Critics of the current regime have asserted that legislative oversight of the regency of the Duke Filip is non-existent.
Government
Mirina utilises a system of parliamentary government . The Stat Gindral of Mirina meets in the August Palace and has two houses: an elected General Council and a appointed Grand Council. Unlike many other constitutional monarchies, it is not conventional for royal assent to be granted to all bills, though royal assent is not required for legislation to come into force.
The position of prime minister (Mirine: Dombra Pristent Kunkeli, Lord President of the Council), Mirina's head of government, belongs to the person most likely to command the confidence of the General Council; this individual is typically the leader of the political party or coalition of parties that holds the largest number of seats in that chamber. The prime minister chooses a cabinet and its members are formally appointed by the monarch to form Her Majesty's Government. By convention, the monarch respects the prime minister's decisions of government.
The cabinet is traditionally drawn from members of the prime minister's party or coalition and mostly from the Commons Chamber but always from both legislative houses, the cabinet being responsible to both. Executive power is exercised by the prime minister and cabinet, all of whom are sworn into the Privy Council of Mirina, and become Ministers of the Crown. The current Prime Minister is Ntoni Mitisalikari, leader of the Alydian People's Party, who has been in office since 12 June 2014. Mirina is divided into 300 constituencies, used to elect members of the General Council. General elections are called by the monarch when the prime minister so advises, and by convention should be called within five years of the last.
Devolved administrations
Mirina, Pontra, Tembra, Sodna, and Apia each have their own government and executive, led by a president and a devolved bicameral legislature.
