The Republic of Pulacan is a multi-party democracy, with numerous regional parties holding tribal, class, and ideological loyalty. Though these parties are typically most active in the Republican areas of the country, some are active within the lands of the dikgosi, where they push for grassroots change through the dikgotla direct democratic system. The dominant party in the House of Delegates, the Republic's assigned lower house, elects a Chief Minister, who serves simultaneously as a member of the President's cabinet and as the head of government for the Republican subordinate areas.
