History

Jacobean period (1919–1942)

The Reine de l'Ouest, the ship used by the government and royal family to flee into exile

When the SNSP took over Saulliers with their coup, the remaining parts of the government and the royal family fled the nation. They went into exile in Emeraude and made it into their base against the new Saulliers regime. In exile, James I, king of Saulliers, was in addition also crowned as emperor of Emeraude on the 5th October 1922.

The jacobean period ended with the death of James II and the subsequent coronation of his daughter Charlotte.

Politics and government

The Palais de la Démocratie, where the lower and upper houses of Parliament meet

Emeraude has been a parliamentary constitutional monarchy since it's foundation in 1922. Emeraudian politics and governance are characterised by an effort to achieve broad consensus on important issues.

The monarch is the head of state, at present Emperor Alexander of Emeraude. Constitutionally, the position is equipped with limited powers due to ministerial responsibility.
