Third Tsardom of Ryzan

The Third Tsardom of Ryzan was proclaimed on May 20, 2021, and was the 10th official Government of the Ryzani states. It was proclaimed with Ibris Alyanis Tossova-McSpiegel and CanadianToss as the Tsarina and Tsar respectively. Although the nation is named a Tsardom, it is a constitutional monarchy, as the Tsar and Tsarina are the heads of state while the President is the head of the government. Both factions are bound by the Constitution of the Tsardom of Ryzan. It would become defunct following a reform by President Zefirov, forming the Second Ryzani Republic.

Aveleksei Administration
Although President Aveleksei is to be partially credited with the creation of the Third Tsardom, he only resided over its government for 16 days. The Aveleksei Period is often considered the transition period between the Republic and the Tsardom, with few major events occurring. It lasted from the official creation of the Tsardom on May 20th to the next President's inauguration and ratification of the nation's Constitution on June 5th.

One of the few significant events during the Aveleksei Administration while under the Tsardom was the entry of Ryzan into the SRDA (Southern Rathnir Defense Accords).

Zefirov Administration
President Tossovich chose not to stand for reelection, resulting in the dissolution of the Ryzani Stability Front. The June elections were won by the National Liberal Party, and President Zefirov took office on 6 June 2021.

One of the first notable events during this period was Ryzan's first Constitutional Amendment which dissolved the Senate and replaced it with the Duma. Control of the Duma was handed over to political parties rather than individuals.

Departments were replaced by Ministries.

Titles of the Tsardom were officially abolished and Ryzan had now become the Republic Of Ryzan

Government
The Tsardom of Ryzan was ruled by the Tsarina, who acts as the head of state. The government was led by the President, who acted as the head of Government, a position elected by the people every month. They were assisted by the Vice President, who helps the President with the day-to-day management of the federal government.

The Freehold leaders consisted of eight nobles with various local titles. The last continuous remnants of Ryzan's feudal past, they rule their states as autocrats, but were subject to the orders of the President and the Senate. Each has one seat on the Council of Freeholders, a purely advisory body that is called upon during times of instability or conflict.

The Directors each lead a corresponding department, of which there are five: the Department of Culture, the Department of Defense, the Department of Justice, the Department of Public Works, and the Department of Trade & Commerce.

The Department of Defense coordinates activity between the Ryzani National Armed Forces (RNAF), local authorities, militias, and potential mercenaries. It acts as the bureaucratic government part of the military, making equipment purchases and requests for them on behalf of the RNAF. The Director of Defense receives a seat on the Security Council.

The Department of Justice upholds the nation's laws by mediating internal disputes. The Department also organizes the court system, which holds court meetings to determine the outcome of the aforementioned disagreements based purely on the law, as well as conducting trials for criminals. The Director of Justice receives a seat in the High Court.

The Department of Public Works has the job of running all national and large state infrastructure projects. They work closely with the DoD on defensive structures like walls, towers, outposts, and garrisons, and maintains national transport.

The Department of Culture runs the library, is responsible for recruitment activities, works with Freehold leaders and other historical figures to write detailed and accurate Wiki pages, documents foreign deals like alliances, pacts, and trade deals, maps the country's territory, and helps create the Ryzani Independent.

The Department of Trade and Commerce commissions Ryzani industries, collects taxes, runs the Imperial Treasury, ensures roads and other transportation networks are trade-ready, oversees the implementation & execution of economy-related policies, regulates large businesses, and conducts all large government transactions like the sale or purchase of land. It also facilitates inter-departmental exchanges of goods/services.

The five Directors, plus the Secretary of State and Chairman of Democratic affairs, make up the Presidential Cabinet.
