Supreme Council of the Revolutionary Armed Forces: Political mirror to the Chiefs of the Defence Staff, same members.

General Intelligence Service: military intelligence body but also tasked with protecting the state from internal and external threats. Completely carte blanche in terms of operations
Department for State Intelligence and Security: Domestic and external spy service
Department for National Spiritual Mobilisation: Tasked with propaganda, mass popular mobilisation
Department for National Renovationist Propagation: Tasked with overseeing Zorasan's state media - all newspapers, radio stations, digital outlets and TV are ostensibly military controlled.

Students of the Union
Sole trade union forgot the name
Union of Mothers and Daughters of the Union

Legislative branch and United Front

Supreme Assembly of the Union: XXX members, appointed for five-year terms unlimited by the Front Department for Public Administration, drawn from UR assemblies. More power than current - has legislative power, holds civil and military office holders to account (ministers and agency heads). Between Revolutionary Command Congresses, the SAU is the principal forum for the hearing of reports by UF and government bodies. Limited power of purse, cannot reject defence budgets as proposed by the military.

United Front: Sole political party permitted in the country. Mostly devoid of ideology and political mobilisation, officially exists to govern and administer the country and is entirely subordinated to the Central Committee of State. Premium on elevating technocratic apparatchiks over demagogues, its party schools are entirely devoted to educating students on administration, economics and foreign relations ostensibly to provide the state with capable operators. Has no involvement in state security, defence policy or repression, nor does it operate any media publications such as a newspaper or magazine.

Front Department for Public Administration: body tasked with identifing party members suitable for public office at local, state and national levels. Appoints the entire Supreme Assembly with SCRAF approval every five years.
Front Department for Policy Development: Umbrella body covering numerous thinktanks tasked with designing policies and strategies for national government.
Front Department for Strategic Research: Body tasked with studying public opinion and developing reports off data provided by the local and state levels for the FDPA.

Revolutionary Command Congress

Held every five years, includes the senior UF officers and elite, SCRAF membership and a number of other senior military officers. Tasked with reviewing the record of the administration, electing a new state president and approving appointments or removing fail admins. Votes and approves/disapproves of proposed policies and strategies.
