The politics of the Union of Toloria operate within the framework of the Constitution of the Union of Toloria, which calls for a unitary semi-presidential republic system. The nation declares itself to be "indivisible, democratic, and unwavering." The Constitution calls for separation of powers and adherence to national sovereignty.

The political system of Toloria is divided into three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. In the Tolorian system, the head of the executive branch, the President wields extraordinary power. The President is responsible for appointing all the major figures of the political system. The President appoints the Prime Minister and the Cabinet. These appointees must be approved by the legislature, however it is only a formality since the President holds the right override the veto of any appointee. The Prime Minister is accountable to both the President and the National People's Assembly. A vote of "no confidence" by the legislature would remove the Prime Minister, with the President having no power to override this.

The National People's Assembly is the sole body that comprises the unicameral legislature. Its responsible for passing statutes and passing the budget. It also holds the executive branch accountable through formal questioning on the floor of the Indawo Malao building and by formal commissions of inquiry. The statutes passed by the People's Assembly are reviewed for constitutionality by the Constitutional Court of Toloria. Members of the Constitutional Court are appointed by both the President of the Republic and the Speaker of the People's Assembly.
