Rome officially Imperium Romanum (Roman Empire) is an absolute imperial state comprised of a number of regions and provinces. It is governed by a Caesar and an elected legislature called the Senate. It is located mostly on the mainland and nearby off-shore islands on the north-western coast of the continent of Archon in the Sovereign Charter.
Politics and Government
Structure
The Roman government is divided into two, theoretically separate, branches: The Imperial branch and the Senatorial branch. The Imperial branch is represented by Caesar himself, though consists of the Imperial Secretariat (a gargantuan bureaucratic machine, primarily staffed by slaves and ex-slaves, trained from young ages to function as administrators) which in turn is headed by the various Imperial Secretaries, directly appointed by Caesar.
It is the Imperial Branch that is responsible for the day-to-day running of the Imperium, the appointment of Governors to the Imperial Provinces, as well as directing the Imperial Military, which swears personal loyalty to Caesar. The Imperial Branch also oversees the Iudiciarii, the Roman judiciary and, whilst the judicial ranks are often drawn from the Senatorial class, Caesar maintains overall control and the Right of Appeal to Caesar is held to be the most sacrosanct of all Roman legal rites.
The Senatorial Branch is composed of the Imperial Senate, which acts as the legislative body of the Imperium. The Senate itself is composed of 885 members at present who meet the hefty financial and landholding requirements for admittance, though this number has been known to fluctuate as members are assigned to and struck from the Senatorial roll which is maintained by Caesar, and is headed by two Consuls. The Roman Consuls are technically the heads of the Roman Government, and were once chosen by election, however the Divine Augustus Caesar essentially relegated the position to a ceremonial Imperial appointment. It is worth noting, however, that Proconsular rank (former Consuls) is generally held to be a requirement for a governorship- however this is not a legal necessity.
The Senate is theoretically responsible for the Imperial Treasury- though, the Secretariat is said to do most of the actual work- as well as passing legislation into law, though any Senatorial legislature requires Imperial consent to pass into law. The Senate also appoints governors to the provinces under its purview, which tend to be smaller, demilitarized and usually in the heartlands.
The main role of the Senatorial class is to provide an officer class for the Legions, as well as diplomatic envoys for the Imperial Diplomatic Service.
