Unlike most constitutions that divide government into three parts, this one splits it into five:
- Legislative
- Executive
- Administrative
- Judicial
- Monetary
Each branch serves a clearly partitioned role—most radically, executive power is only allowed to operate internationally, while domestic governance is managed by an Administrative Branch appointed entirely by the legislature.
The Executive Branch: Foreign-Only Power
The President, as head of the Executive Branch, holds no domestic authority. Their mandate is strictly:
- Foreign diplomacy and ambassadorial appointments
- Military command outside national borders
- Oversight of international agreements, trade negotiations, and treaties
- Management of overseas territories and extraterritorial jurisdiction
- Participation in global institutions (e.g., UN, WTO, international courts)
The National Security Council under the Executive may conduct foreign intelligence but is banned from any domestic surveillance - a task left to another branch entirely.
The Administrative Branch: Domestic Governance Without a President
All domestic government operations—public services, departments, ministries—are handled by the Administrative Branch. Notably:
- Ministers are appointed from among elected legislators, reflecting democratic will.
- There is no prime minister or executive head of this branch.
- The Homeland Intelligence Agency conducts all domestic surveillance but is barred from foreign operations.
This design severs the traditional concentration of domestic power in a single executive leader.
The Legislative Branch: Dual Chambers with Functional and Credential Distinctions
The legislature is divided into:
- The Consulate – a lower house of directly elected representatives of the people.
- The Senate – a chamber with optional department-specific titles, e.g., Senator of Health or Senator of Justice.
Senate innovations include:
Credential-based eligibility: To run for a titular Senate seat (e.g., Senator of Justice), candidates must hold accredited qualifications (e.g., law degree).
- Titles confer no additional power, but serve as electoral signals of competence.
- Title candidacy does not penalise reallocation: If a candidate loses the titular vote, they can still win a standard seat based on vote count.
This adds technocratic signalling to democratic elections without undermining universal suffrage.
The Monetary Branch: A Non-partisan Fiscal Check
The Monetary Branch is empowered to:
- Control treasury placement in commercial banks and influence cash rates.
- Set minimum revenue requirements the legislature must meet via taxation.
- Issue treasury bonds without restriction on volume (though structure can be regulated).
- Enforce government shutdown by withholding treasury access if obligations are unmet.
Its structure:
A council of economic professionals appointed by the Executive from within the Administrative Branch.
- Requires transparent reporting and press releases.
- Designed to avoid partisanship while imposing long-term fiscal discipline.
Importantly, if the Monetary Branch becomes dysfunctional, the government shuts down, and its officials are automatically suspended, forcing legislative resolution without violating constitutional procedure.
