Greater Tralka is a stratocracy in southern Thrismari. It borders Lyonheimer to the north. Greater Tralka is a relatively new nation comprised of the various peoples of the Tralkans, who share a common history and similar languages.
History
Government
The government of Greater Tralka is effectively a form of constitutional stratocracy, where the military performs the functions of state at the highest levels of government, but the power of that state is bound by a charter agreed to by its constituent substates. This charter acts as a de facto constitution, outlining both the structure and limitations of the overarching military government, separating powers into different assemblies of senior officers, and guaranteeing many civil and human rights for the citizens of Greater Tralka.
Greater Tralka is comprised of eight semi-autonomous regions that represent each of the signatory states of the Tralkan Charter. Domestic affairs are largely handled by these substates, which maintain local democratic governments.
Defense Council of Greater Tralka
The Defense Council is the executive branch of the Greater Tralkan federal government. It is a body of currently 20 officials that is responsible for commanding the armed forces and implementing the laws that pass the Assembly of Public Policy. Each of the 20 members is the head of an executive department, whose roles are either defined in the Tralkan Charter or set out by the Assembly when a new department is created. The Defense Council is headed by the Grand Marshal, the effective Head of State, Head of Government, and Commander-in-Chief of Greater Tralka, who must be a sitting member of the Council and is elected by its members every 4 years.
To be appointed to the Defense Council, a candidate must be an active member of the Greater Tralkan armed forces of rank Lieutenant General (or the branch equivalent) or higher. New members of the Defense council are appointed by the Grand Marshal and confirmed by a majority of both the sitting members of the Defense Council and the Assembly.
Assembly of Public Policy
The Assembly of Public Policy is the legislative branch of the federal government of Greater Tralka. Members of the Assembly write, discuss, debate, and vote on policies that pertain to the whole of Greater Tralka.
Elections for seats on the Assembly are held every four years, and voting is open to all active members of the armed forces of Greater Tralka. To run for office, one must be an active commissioned officer of the armed forces of Greater Tralka of any rank, and must have demonstrated high aptitude in their field of study and detailed knowledge of the Tralkan charter in standard examinations.
Economy
Greater Tralka has a mixed social market economy, with the right to private property being guaranteed by the Tralkan Charter. However, the charter allows the Assembly of Public Policy to regulate the economy as needed through taxes, subsidies, and public spending, and economic policy has become one of the most contested topics in Tralkan politics.
Foreign Relations
Greater Tralka currently maintains good relations with most of the nations in Thrismari and throughout the world, and is a member of both the Thrismari Union and the Anterian Socialist Republics Alliance.
