Guest Share Posted November 13, 2014 Aesterwald-nationalist Martin Winter wonders why this has been made so public if only three men may cast their vote anyways. He dismisses the thought with a simplistic "Daft Orenians." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlesearch 141 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Sonn Ander would point it that the Magnates vote for the Prime Minister. The electors only vote for a successor. THE HOUSE OF MAGNATES The House of Magnates is a unicameral legislature which meets in the Imperial Chambers. Each noble lord in the Holy Empire of Oren may appoint a determined amount of Magnates to represent his interests in the legislature; a baron may appoint up to one to represent his one vote, a count up to two to represent his two votes, and a duke up to three to represent his three votes. A noble may also represent himself, and the representatives are entitled “Magnate of X”, X referring to the primary fief of the Lord which the Magnate represents. A Magnate holds his post for two years, in which he may be reappointed or dismissed by the noble which he represents. The House of Magnates holds full legislative power, however, first prospective legislation must be introduced into the house and debated. After what is deemed sufficient debate, the House of Magnates will vote to pass the legislation, requiring relative majority. If the legislation passes through the House of Magnates, it is sent to the Crown, where it requires explicit royal assent to be enacted into law. If legislation is denied royal assent, it is thrown out and may not be reintroduced with satisfactory amendment. In order to strengthen the position of the House of Magnates, the former privy positions of Chancellor, Bailiff, Emissary, and Treasurer are deemed forfeit. In its stead, the House of Magnates may appoint the Imperial Chancellor, or Prime Minister, by the relative majority vote from the House, and he may appoint a Minister of Justice, Minister of Diplomacy, and Minister of Finance to staff his cabinet, enabling the nobility to influence government action regarding those political affairs. This Prime Minister holds penultimate authority in the Empire, only answering to the Codex (to be drafted with consideration among the Magnates) and the Emperor; he acts as Regent of the Empire in the Emperor’s demise or absence, governs and manages civil and political matters of the Empire and assumes a position akin to an under-king, governing the Empire on a day to day basis. However, he must pass new legislation through the House of Magnates. He need not be noble, but his allegiance to the Orenian crown must be resolute. The Free City of Petrus, held by Maer Sonn Ander (x3 votes) Aldersburg, held by Duke Olivier de Savoie (x3 votes) Karovia, held by Duke Aleksandr Carrion (x3 votes) Werdenberg, held by Count Symon Stafyr (x2 votes) Vladovia, held by Baron Johann Vladovic (x1 vote) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
