The federal parliamentary government of Vitosium is the body responsible for the federal administration of Vitosium and was established by a constitution in 1811. Once a monarch set up by King Alexander Agostinio in 1789, the switch to a democracy was made in 1811 by the new leader, Bruno Saivas, following the death of the revolt's founder, Soli Cardassio. Saivas, along with Adam Bassett-Michael, Augustino Fioganati, Bertram Albarate, Mariano Brewys-Vigo, Matthew Nysell and Montgomery Albirio, signed the Vitosian Charter of Merits and Opportunies to ensure a transition to a better country and a better life. The Constitution also gave the country a new name, Vitosium, to replace the old name, Vitaso.
As stated in the constitution, The Prime Minister is the head of government brought on to form a government after securing the confidence of the Estate of Commons, which is typically determined through the election of enough members of a single political party in a federal election to provide a majority of seats in Parliament, forming a governing party. Further elements of governance are outlined in the rest of the Vitosian Constitution, which includes written statutes in addition to court rulings. The Prime Minister then elects members of the Assembly, a special directive board which ministers over different departments of the Government.
The Estate of Commons is an elected chamber with elections to 600 single member constituencies held at least every five years under the first-past-the-post system. The two houses meet in separate chambers in Vaniza Complex, a building specifically made for meetings for the Estate of Commons. By constitutional convention, all government ministers, including the prime minister, are members of the Estate of Commons and are thereby accountable to the respective branches of the legislature. Most Assembly ministers are from the Commons.
The Senate of Vitosium is the upper house of the Parliament of Vitosium, which consists of 112 members appointed by the governor general on the advice of the prime minister. Seats are assigned on a provincial basis as each province holds 16 members for a total of 112. Senators serve until they reach the mandatory retirement age of 75.
