The name "Garindina" derives from ancient Yasic roots, reflecting the old pagan spiritual beliefs of the region. In the ancient pagan beliefs of Garindina, Garin is the chief god of the [[Kraynaduk Faith]] (Yasic Paganism). Garin in both the old and new beliefs, is the god of the sky, lightning, thunder, and physical realm. The land itself was seen as a manifestation of this divine power, often referred to as the "Land of Garin" in reverence to the deity's influence over the region's natural elements and the people's daily lives.

=== Government ===
 
The governance structure in Garindina is intricate and, at times, confusing. Classified as an {{wp|Anocracy|Anocratic State}}, Garindina's government restricts national-level elections, permitting only local-level electoral processes. Operating as a Semi-Constitutional Federal Monarchy and a {{wp|one-party state}} led by the National Royalist Party (NRP). The NRP serves as the sole political party within the nation. The power in the country is centralized within three levels of government: the '''monarchy''', the '''central government''' (consisting of the '''Federal Council''', the '''State Duma''', and the '''Council of Ministers'''), and the '''Supreme Court'''.
 
At the top, the monarchy holds ultimate authority, with decisions made by the Crown enacted by the Council of Ministers to bring about changes. The central government, which includes the Federal Council, governs the '''Oblasts''' and '''Administrative Districts (ADs)''' of Garindina. However, all discussions and decisions within the central government require approval from the Crown.
 
The State Duma, as the legislative body, has the unique power to challenge the Crown. It can set limits on the monarch's authority, acting as a check and balance. The local government, appointed by the Federal Council, operates autonomously without requiring the Crown's approval.
 
Lastly, the Supreme Court serves as the enforcer of all laws enacted by the monarchy and protects the '''Garindinan Constitution''', also known as the Nationalist Constitution.
 
==== Monarchy ====
 
{{main|Garindinan Monarchy}}
 
[[File:Royal Palace of Garindina.jpeg|thumb|left|The Royal Palace of Garindina]]
 
The Monarchy of Garindina dates back to the first civilizations of the Gari people. Garindina is run by a {{wp|hereditary monarchy}} and its current monarch is Czarina Nadia V. The monarchy can be split into two sections, the '''Old Monarchy''' and the '''New Monarchy'''. This split is defined by the abolishment of the monarchy after the October Coup, currently Garindina is ruled by the new monarchy. The New Monarchy has ruled Garindina since 1998, after the end of the Garindinan Civil War. The first “New Monarch” was Czar Aleksandr Yakolev, and he reigned until his death on July 17th, 2015.
 
The Monarchs are Commander-in-Chief of the Garindinan Armed Forces and hold the authority to declare war and make alliances. Meaning that the entirety of the Garindinan Armed Forces and the Royal Guard are under the command of the Monarch. The Monarchy determines foreign policy and must sign all Acts, Bills and Laws for them to be enacted upon. Monarchs have the power to appoint Oblast and AD governors and the members of the Council of Ministers. The Monarch can also appoint the members of the Supreme Court, giving the Monarch absolute power over the Garindinan legal system. Not only that, but the Monarch also has direct control over the territories of Garindina.
 
==== Central Government ====
 
[[File:Federal Assembly Building.jpeg|thumb|right|The Federal Assembly]]
 
The Central Government of Garindina comprises two departments, the '''Federal Council''' and the '''State Duma'''. These two departments make up the central body of the Garindinan government. These two counsels meet six times a year at the [[Federal Assembly (Garindina)|Federal Assembly]] and discuss goals for the year. wip
 
===== Federal Council =====
 
[[File:Federal Council Building.jpeg|thumb|left|The Federal Council]]
 
The '''Federal Council''' governs the '''Oblast''' and '''Administrative Districts''' of Garindina. The Federal Council is made up of the Governors of Each Oblast and Administrative District, the current Head Councilwomen is Natasha Ivanova. Oblasts have the most autonomy in the Government, meaning they have the most power in the Federal Council. Administrative Districts have less autonomy, meaning they hold less power in the Federal Council.
 
Oblast were first introduced to Garindina after the Constitution War; this is due to the people of Garindina wanting representation in the government. Each of the eight Oblast and two republics has its own form of government, all being a Federal Republic with their own State Duma. Despite this, the Oblast have no say in who will be the governor, as the monarch hand-picks all governors.
 
The same goes for Administrative Districts, they have their own State Council but have no say over who governs them. Administrative Districts are Politically important cities. With the Constitution only stating the six Administrative Districts of Parsa, Jasanasburg, Krasbograd, Novokamensk, Borisobay, and Yuzhemore. These Districts aren't just confined to a single city either, an Administrative District consists of the city in question and some surrounding area, with Novokamensk being the largest District.
 
=====State Duma=====
 
[[File:Garindinan State Duma.jpeg|thumb|right|The State Duma Building]]
 
Unlike other elements of government, the State Duma has the unique power to counter the monarchy. The State Duma is composed of a thirty-person council and is headed by Chairman Ivan Kovalenko. WIP
 
===== Council of Ministers =====
 
[[File:Council of Ministers Building.jpeg|thumb|left|The Council of Ministers Building]]
 
The '''Council of Ministers''' comprises the eight different ministries and is headed by Prime Minister Gregory Brezhnev. With each minister being hand-picked by the monarch as well as the prime minister, who is in control of the council. Each minister controls their own sector of administration and all decisions made by the Federal Council and the monarchy are put into effect by their respective ministry. Ministers have the power to create their own policies, but these policies must be approved by the monarch to be put into effect. But in the occasion of a policies being denied, they can edit it and send it through the federal assembly and have it approved. Despite this, the monarch can still veto the policy if seen necessary.
 
The Prime Minister is the head of the Council of Ministers and also represents the Council in the Federal Assembly. wip
