Politics and government
The Union is lead by the Monarch, but he is helped by the civilian government. The civilian government uses a unitary bicameral system. Legislative power is held by Congress which consists of the Senate and the Planetary Assembly. Executive power is held by the Royal Cabinet, which is lead by the Prime Minister with the Kings grace and elected by popular vote. The King however may overrule the Prime Minister’s decisions at any given time. The Cabinet is divided into multiple ministries that influence the civilian populace daily life. Although the Ministries of Colonies and Foreign Affairs work with the Military branch of society in some degrees. Apart from these institutions there also is the Royal Court which is the judicial part of the government.

Foreign policy
Emeraldian Foreign policy is dictated by the King himself. He is however assisted by the Prime Minister, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Royal War Council. This may initially seem as a long and slow method to make policy, but the King ultimately makes the final decisions and must enact any formal treaties with his own signature.
