The Kingdom of Yisrael (commonly called Yisroel; Modern Hebrew: ישראל) is a federal presidential constitutional monarchy in the world.
The Kingdom is an nation-state located in the continent of Levantia. Yisrael borders Trinovantum to its northwest through a colonial frontier. At 443,664 km2 and with TBD million people, it is one of the smaller nations in the globe by both land and population.
Yisroel is the home of world Jewry and was founded as a Jewish nation-state. The kings of Yisroel are reputed to trace their lineages to the last kings of ancient Yisroel. It is considered the holy land for Jews and is also sacred by Christians and Muslims.
The Kingdom was preceded by the Long Diaspora and by other interregnal events by foreign powers. For much of its history, it has been largely under foreign rule or control. In the 18th century, the Jews of the Levant proclaimed the Kingdom of Yisroel and liberated the lands of biblical Yisroel. Towards the 19th century, due to threat of surrounding hostile states and pagan kingdoms to the west, Yisroel began to expand its territories, particularly to the west, south, and northwest to secure trade routes and geostrategic military locations.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, Yisroel clashed with nearby powers such as Trinovantum and Anikatia, while expanding its banking and mercantile influence with the Great Powers of Ordia.
Since the 1970s, Yisrael has developed a globalizing post-industrial economy that has consistently raised the Levant's economic profile. The banking sector in Yisroel is considered a regional and global policy-setter. Because of secretive banking laws and low, favorable tax rates, Yisroel has become a tax haven for global, especially Ordian elites, earning the nickname "Global Banker." Yisroel has membership in the Organization for Pardesi Affairs.
Etymology
The names Land of Yisroel and Children of Yisroel have historically been used to refer to the biblical Kingdom of Yisroel and the entire Jewish people, respectively. The name "Yisroel" (Modern Hebrew: Yisroʾel, lit. "struggle with G-d") in these phrases refers to the patriarch Yaakov who, according to the Hebrew Bible, was given the name after he successfully wrestled with an angel of G-d. Yaakov's twelve sons became the ancestors of the Yisroelites. Yaakov and his sons had lived in Kenaan but were forced by famine to go into Mitzrayim for four generations, lasting 430 years, until Moshe, a great-great grandson of Yaakov, led the Yisroelites back into Kenaan during the "Shemos" (Exodus).
The area is also known as the Holy Land, being holy for all Abrahamic religions including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
History
Government and politics
Branches of government
His Majesty's Royal Government of Yisroel, unlike most modern nation-states, which typically consist of three branches (executive, legislative, and judicial), Yisroel has a bicameral legislative whose upper house serves both as a legislative body and the supreme court and highest judicial authority.
Executive

The executive powers are divided between His Royal Majesty the King and the elected His Excellency the President. The King is the head of state by his hereditary right to rule and is formally the royal commander-in-chief of the armed forces and the national representative of the Yisroeli people. The chief executive and head of government of the Kingdom is the President, who is aided in his administration of the royal bureaucracy by the Cabinet, who are appointed by and serve at the President's pleasure. The reigning King is Elazar I. The current President is TBD.
Since the Royal Reform Acts of 19XX, the President has been endowed by His Majesty as the military Supreme Commander, making the President the effective de facto commander-in-chief of the Royal Yisraeli Defense Forces on a day-to-day basis. The King has broader political powers than is typical in most constitutional monarchies, including an array of reserve powers and the ability to give or refuse royal assent.
The President also has the power to sign or veto legislative bills passed by the Knesset. He appoints his Cabinet as well as a bevy of senior and mid-level administrative and regulatory posts throughout the Royal Government.
The president serves a term of four years, and cannot run more than twice, and both the president and vice president must run on the same ticket. The president is elected through a plurality majority in an electoral college, whose votes are decided by the winner of the popular vote in each of the TBA by eligible, registered voters in a first-past-the-post electoral system.
