| |
| − |
| |
| − | Leondaldal is a Parliamentary Republic with some of the world's greatest political freedoms. It's constitution guarantees the right to free speech, public protest and universal suffrage. It has two Legislative houses: The House of Parliament and House of Protectors. Parliament is made up of 1000 MP's and is democratically elected, it is the main legislative branch which passes most national Laws. On the other hand the House of Protectors is made up of 500 Protectors of the Nation and is bureaucratically selected, it's sole purpose is to prevent corrupt government's from ending democracy or infringing on the rights of Leondaldalian citizens and it blocks any legislation that might infringe on the personal or political rights of citizens.

| |
| − | [size=85] Leondaldalians enjoy some of the best political rights and freedoms in the world[/size]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Leondaldal also as mentioned earlier has 16 states with each one having an autonomous government and a state parliament with 500 MP's. Each state can create it's own laws [u][b]but[/b][/u] they can [u][b]always[/u][/b] be overruled by the National government.They can also declare exemption from [i]certain[/i] national laws but only with the national parliaments explicit permission.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | But by far the most interesting and unique part of Leondaldal's political system is the fact that despite being a Parliamentary Republic and having no national monarchy to speak of, 12 out of the 16 states have their own constitutional monarchies. Even more interestingly many states have their own titles (Such as the Kingdom of Krato which despite being a kingdom is but a region of the Parliamentary Republic of Leondaldal), foreign offices,delegates and ambassadors to the outside world (Strictly for show and under the control of the national parliament) and even ceremonial militaries.
