Greuningia (Besmenian: Greuningen) is a federal state located in Besmenia.

History

Since 1967

With the Besmenian reunification on September 14, 1967, the state of Greuningia was re-established. It originated from the West Besmenian districts of Richtenberg and Köstritz, as well as parts of the districts of Ochsenbeinfurt and Halsholm. Richtersberg became the state capital. On September 24, 1967, state elections were held for the first time in Greuningia and in the other federal states in the area of the former West Besmenia. After the 1967 state election, an SDU-BRP government was formed.

Economically, like the other West Besmenian states, Greuningia fared less well in the late 1960s and early 1970s, with Greuningia experiencing the highest unemployment rate in West Besmenia, resulting to the development of the BVP and BRP as the two dominated parties in Greuningia in the 1970s. On November 1, 1969, the Greuningian Constitution came into force.

Politics

Executive

The executive is led by the state government of Greuningia, which consists of the Greuningian governors and the state ministers. The governor is elected by the state chamber with a majority of its members without debate in a secret ballot for the entire legislative period. The governor appoints and dismisses state ministers. He also appoints a state minister as his deputy. The state chamber can only depose the governor through a constructive vote of no confidence.
