The government of Tyreseia, also known as the federal government or the national government of Tyreseia (Tyreseian: Guvernachu Djindalu dja Tirexia) is the national government of the Workers' Federation of Tyreseia and its subnational entities.
Legislative branch
The Tyreseian government structure resembles a highly-modified nested council system, in which lower councils on the local level elect representatives to councils in higher levels. The ultimate legislative power of Tyreseia is vested in the Supreme Workers' Assembly, a unicameral body made up of 708 members. The Assembly is responsible for passing all federal laws in the nation. Laws may also be put before the Assembly for voting by petitions of initiative, which require 30,000 signatories from across at least two constituencies to pass. Assembly members also may form committees to address specific policy issues. Usually formed on an ad hoc basis, some of these committees may nonetheless persist through multiple sessions. The Supreme Assembly also elects from its ranks the Council of State, the collective head of state and executive cabinet. The Supreme Workers' Assembly's ranks are filled according to X principle; Tyreseian regions are entitled to representation based on population and the number of municipalities and communes within them. Terms last for four years; Assemblymen are allowed one consecutive re-election before being forcibly barred from office. As of the 1970 National Reforms, Tyreseia is also one of the few nations to practice staggered elections for a national assembly, with half of the seats being elected on odd-numbered years and half on even-numbered years. Division between "odd" and "even" seats is as evenly distributed across the nation's constituencies as possible. Citizens in a representative's constituency are allowed to start petitions of recall at any time during that representative's term, which will trigger a snap election. Snap elections may also be called by the Council of State, thus dissolving their own post and the Assembly upon the election's conclusion; snap elections via petitions of recall are more common under the Tyreseian system.
As the Tyreseian system is federal, there exists a debate over what issues fall into the regional system and what comes under national prerogative through the auspices of the Supreme Workers' Assembly. For example, it is generally agreed that projects, such as rail lines and highways, crossing multiple regions fall under the national government, but
Executive branch

The executive branch of the Tyreseian government is helmed by the Council of State (Tyreseian: Cunsiju djul Stadu). Rather than a single head of government, the Council of State functions as a collective body. Its members are elected from within the Supreme Workers' Assembly. Each member of the Council serves as a People's Commissar, whom heads Tyreseia's executive agencies, known as People's Commissariats. Commissars are entitled to serve until the end of their terms in the Assembly, and are thus subject to the same principles of recall and term limits as other Assembly members. Additionally, any one or all of the Council may be impeached and removed by a supermajority vote of the Assembly.
People's Commissariats
A People's Commissariat (Tyreseian: comixadu djindalu) is a Tyreseian government body analagous to a government ministry in other nations. The leaders of these departments, also known as People's Commissars or Commissars for short, serve on the Council of State, the collective head of state and government of the Workers' Federation. As the Commissars themselves are politicians with short term limits, the bureaucracy within the Commissariats is often influential over the political leadership.

Judicial branch

The judicial system of Tyreseia is defined by the use of civil law and judicial panels.
Administrative divisions
Within Tyreseia's nested system, the lowest level of organization is the ward or neighborhood. These groups govern anywhere from 3,000 to 9,000 people, and are usually designated by a conglomeration of local union workplaces (or from a single local union in the case of rural areas). Each ward elects a council of around 30-50 people, and regulates local issues specific to that area. Multiple wards or councils coalesce to form municipalities (Tyreseian: cunsiju). The primary function of a municipality is to facilitate inter-council cooperation and govern wider issues, such as city services. In rural areas, communes serve instead of wards, with multiple adjoining rural communes adjoining into prefectural governments. These prefectures and municipalities vary widely in size based on the number of wards under them; municipalities usually govern whole cities or parts of large metropolises, while prefectures cover a regionally-important town and surrounding countryside. In either case, these second-level subnational governments will form a region. Regions are the highest form of subnational government, and retain the most autonomy out of all the levels of Tyreseia's subnational entities. The regions are governed by regional councils of 100 to 150 people, elected from within the municipal or prefectural councils. From there, regional councils mediate issues between lower bodies and administer regional infrastructure projects. Regional governments also maintain commissariats of their own to support regional laws and institutions. Regions are entitled to appoint a number of their own members to the Supreme Workers' Assembly. The regional council determines a list of candidates from within its ranks and places the list before the general populace of the region at-large for approval by vote.
Local powers
As Tyreseia is a federal nation, the subnational governments retain significant authority.
