From the 16th century through 1787, the area which consists of modern day Prybourne, Kilowatt, and Velnotia, all formed the capital region of Canteria within the Canterian Empire. In 1787, the Empire had long since been rocked with separatism and anti-imperialist unrest, and, under the Concord of Wreaths, had given up much of it's overseas territorial holdings and reformed the Empire into the Canter Republic. However, with the seccession of upper territories which established the new state of Kilowatt on July 14, 1863 and the coup of middle regions established the new state of Velnotia in September 1871, the Republic was further weakened into a rump state until it was dissolved completely in 1890 after the Civil War in which the rebelling forces were victorious and established the new state of Prybourne.
The region comprising modern-day Prybourne, Kilowatt, and Velnotia served as the capital region of Canteria within the larger Canterian Empire from the 14th century until 1787. During this period, the Empire faced significant challenges from separatist movements and anti-imperialist unrest. In an effort to address these issues, the Empire underwent reforms and relinquished many of its overseas territories, leading to the establishment of the Canter Republic under the Concord of Wreaths in 1787. Despite these changes, Canteria continued to experience internal turmoil. In September 1830, a coup took place in the middle regions and capital, leading to the formation of the new state of Velnotia. This event resulted in the division of the country, with both the upper and lower territories claiming the direct succession of the Canter Republic's government. Lower Canteria was recognized as an independent state, while the upper territories seceded and established the new state of Kilowatt on July 14, 1863.


However, relationship between the three now independent countries of Kilowatt, Velnotia, and Prybourne remained strong due to their Canterian ties and after the establish of commerce and formal relations in 1900, there arose much interest in the possibility of re-establishing some sort of further bond between them. This was accomplished in 1907 by the political union of Kilowatt and Prybourne known as the "Grand Party Alliance" and with admittance into the union of Velnotia in 1913. In September of this same year, the Grand Party federalized with the Federal Council under the new name, the Canterian Federation.
The Canter Republic, reduced to a rump state, faced further weakening until its complete dissolution in 1890. Following a victorious Civil War, the rebelling forces established the new state of Prybourne. Despite their separate political entities, Kilowatt, Velnotia, and Prybourne maintained strong relationships due to their shared Canterian heritage. In 1900, formal commerce and diplomatic relations were established, generating interest in re-establishing a closer bond among the three nations. This aspiration came to fruition in 1907 with the political union of Kilowatt and Prybourne, known as the "Grand Party Alliance." In 1913, Velnotia joined the union, leading to the federalization of the Grand Party Alliance. The new political entity was named the Canterian Federation, and it was officially constituted in September of that same year under the Federal Council. The Canterian Federation aimed to solidify and strengthen the ties between Kilowatt, Velnotia, and Prybourne, marking an important milestone in their shared history.

There are three powers hierarchies in the Triumvirate: the legislature represented by the Federal Council of the Triumvirate, voerseen by the Archiater, the governments each represented by the Triumvirs, and the Federal Procuratorate.
Within the Triumvirate, the distribution of power is structured across three distinct hierarchies, each playing a crucial role in the functioning and governance of the federation: the legislature, the governments of the member states represented by the Triumvirs, and the Federal Defense Force.
 
The apex of the power hierarchy lies with the governments of each member state, represented by the Triumvirs. The Triumvirs, chosen through democratic processes within their respective nations, serve as the executive heads of government. They are entrusted with the task of implementing and enforcing laws, managing domestic affairs, and representing their individual states' interests within the Triumvirate. The Triumvirs actively participate in the Federal Council, advocating for their state's priorities and collaborating with fellow representatives to formulate collective policies and initiatives. Falling after this ia known as the Federal Council of the Triumvirate. Comprised of representatives from Prybourne, Kilowatt, and Velnotia, the Federal Council serves as the primary legislative body responsible for enacting laws, establishing policies, and making collective decisions on behalf of the Triumvirate as a whole. The council operates on principles of democratic governance and ensures that the interests and perspectives of all member states are duly considered. Through deliberation and collaboration, the Federal Council shapes the overall direction and framework of the Canterian Federation.
 
The Triumvirate maintains a dedicated military force known as the Federal Defense Force. The Federal Defense Force serves as the guardian of the federation, responsible for protecting the territorial integrity, security, and interests of the Triumvirate as a whole. Composed of highly trained personnel from Prybourne, Kilowatt, and Velnotia, the Federal Defense Force operates under a unified command structure. It ensures the defense readiness of the Triumvirate, responding to external threats, maintaining peace and stability within the federation, and providing support to member states when needed.
 
 


==Triumvirs==
==Triumvirs==
The highest authority within the Triumvirate is reserved to the national leaders in each country. The Grand Nagus of Prybourne, Princeps Director of Kilowatt, and Grand Marshal of Velnotia are all referred to as the '''Triumvirs''' within the federation and are considered the highest officials in the federation. While the Triumvirs do not assume direct control over the federation, the job of the Speaker, the Triumvirs lead and direct federation policy through a general consensus with each other which is collected by the speaker and relayed back to the Federal Council. The Triumvir are also the ones who appoint members to the Federal Council of the Triumvirate and reserve the right to call sessions and typically take precedence when present within the chamber.

As a collective entity, the Triumvirate operates under a federal system, with a representative legislature serving as its governing body. The capital city of Monarush, located in Kilowatt, serves as the political center and administrative hub of the federation. With its long and storied history, the Canterian Federation stands as one of the oldest and most influential entities on the planet, commanding significant influence both regionally and globally.

Geographically, the Canterian Federation holds prominence as the largest bloc on the continent of Thuadia, boasting expansive territories that encompass various landscapes and natural resources. The federation's strategic location grants it economic advantages, facilitating trade and commerce with neighboring regions. The Canterian Federation has leveraged its resources and favorable positioning to foster development, innovation, and growth across multiple sectors, making it a formidable player on the global stage.

History

Princeps Director Louis Marchal
Grand Nagus Aya Leñero
Grand Marshal Darius Teodorescu
Princeps Director Louis Marchal, Grand Nagus Aya Leñero, and Grand Marshal Darius Teodorescu were the chief architects of the Canterian Federation.

The region comprising modern-day Prybourne, Kilowatt, and Velnotia served as the capital region of Canteria within the larger Canterian Empire from the 14th century until 1787. During this period, the Empire faced significant challenges from separatist movements and anti-imperialist unrest. In an effort to address these issues, the Empire underwent reforms and relinquished many of its overseas territories, leading to the establishment of the Canter Republic under the Concord of Wreaths in 1787. Despite these changes, Canteria continued to experience internal turmoil. In September 1830, a coup took place in the middle regions and capital, leading to the formation of the new state of Velnotia. This event resulted in the division of the country, with both the upper and lower territories claiming the direct succession of the Canter Republic's government. Lower Canteria was recognized as an independent state, while the upper territories seceded and established the new state of Kilowatt on July 14, 1863.

The Canter Republic, reduced to a rump state, faced further weakening until its complete dissolution in 1890. Following a victorious Civil War, the rebelling forces established the new state of Prybourne. Despite their separate political entities, Kilowatt, Velnotia, and Prybourne maintained strong relationships due to their shared Canterian heritage. In 1900, formal commerce and diplomatic relations were established, generating interest in re-establishing a closer bond among the three nations. This aspiration came to fruition in 1907 with the political union of Kilowatt and Prybourne, known as the "Grand Party Alliance." In 1913, Velnotia joined the union, leading to the federalization of the Grand Party Alliance. The new political entity was named the Canterian Federation, and it was officially constituted in September of that same year under the Federal Council. The Canterian Federation aimed to solidify and strengthen the ties between Kilowatt, Velnotia, and Prybourne, marking an important milestone in their shared history.

Government

Within the Triumvirate, the distribution of power is structured across three distinct hierarchies, each playing a crucial role in the functioning and governance of the federation: the legislature, the governments of the member states represented by the Triumvirs, and the Federal Defense Force.

The apex of the power hierarchy lies with the governments of each member state, represented by the Triumvirs.

Triumvirs

The Triumvirate, as a federated union, upholds the principle of national sovereignty, wherein the highest authority is vested in the national leaders of each member state.

The report serves as a valuable tool for transparency and accountability, allowing the public and member states to stay informed about the progress and direction of the federation.

Moreover, in cases where a stalemate arises within the Federal Council, the Speaker possesses the authority to break a tie if called upon by the Triumvirs. This power ensures that decision-making processes can move forward even in the face of disagreement or deadlock, promoting effective governance and resolution of critical issues. To uphold fairness and equity, the position of Archiater rotates among the three member countries every five years. The appointment of the Archiater is made by the Federal Council upon the recommendation of the leader of the member country hosting the rotation, subject to approval. This rotation mechanism ensures that each member state has an equal opportunity to contribute to the leadership and direction of the Canterian Federation.
