Realm of Asarakaen

The Realm of Asarakaen was a nation located in the North-Eastern continent of Plagos, spanning the majority of the continent. It consisted of multiple Lordship provinces ruled by Lords of Provinces, all united under the monarch, Queen Aisuru Numachi.

Formation
The structure of the nation and the monarch was decided in negotiations between of the most influential rulers and advisors that still wished to reunite Plagos. Going in to the negotiations, Lady Aisuru Numachi of Sakura was perceived to be the natural choice to become the ruler. Believing a public vote would just turn in to a popularity and population contest all involved agreed that the vote should be kept private, amongst themselves. Lady Aisuru Numachi of Sakura, Isujhai and Field Marshal Pepek of Seijiva and Mr Yes of Veldion (representing Revo) cast votes for which one of the other 3 of the 4 they thought should be the monarch, which they gave to Abigail Akihiro, who had helped organise the negotiations. Lady Aisuru received 3 votes and Field Marshal Pepek received 1, the others receiving none, and thus Lady Aisuru became the monarch, Queen Aisuru Numachi of the Kingdom of Plagos (and later Queen Aisuru Numachi of the Realm of Asarakaen).

Reform
On the 4th of September, the Veldion Council Meeting was held, in which the guilds system for structuring the economy was proposed by Lord Glurak. I Ravdrac to the Senate. This was approved, and after negotiations later in the Senate on the 5th of September the guilds system was finalised in a document drawn up by Prince Alexander W. Numachi, the Minister of Economics, called the Ravdrac Proposal, and implementation began.

Plans for a new capital were also unveiled on the 4th of September, though the construction of this never arose, due to the crisis days later.

The Crisis of the Second Empire
On the 5th of September, Leon, after witnessing discussions in the Senate of The Realm of Asarakaen over the new guild economy system, saw their economic and military fragility, and chose to act. He announced the establishment of the Second Plagatéan Empire on Eldham, and stated he was taking his rightful claim as Tagavor and would be "retaking what is ours", with the Simulami Empire quickly backing them. His claim as Tagavor would be heavily disputed, with letters of the last orders of the former Tagavor Nero published by the Royal Advisor, Abigail Akihiro, that showed the only two rightful Tagavors on Nero's death were Aisuru Numachi and Doom (Leon would later admit while in negotiations with the Senate of the Realm that his right was through his military and those that had infiltrated the Asarakaen government that were loyal to him).

Structure
The Monarch (the Queen, Aisuru Numachi) descends via the line of succession chosen by the present Monarch - the heir to the throne was the Royal Regent, who was chosen by the Monarch. The Monarch has all powers they require to govern the nation afforded to them, without hindrance. They are required to consult the Prime Minister and the Senate of the Realm on important issues, though the final decisions on all issues always rest with the Monarch.

The Lords of the Realm are responsible for governing their respective Lordship provinces, and are largely autonomous with respects to this, though the Monarch does have the right to intervene should they need to do so. They are also expected to advise the Monarch on certain issues.

The Magistrate is responsible for governing the Asarakaen colonies in Eldham.

The Royal Advisor is responsible for advising the Monarch on all required issues and for acting as her delegate in some scenarios.

The Prime Minister is the most senior elected official, who stands for election every 2 months. There are no term limits for the office. The Prime Minister is influential in the choosing of other ministers, in particular the Prime Minister's Secretary, though the final decision as rests with the Queen. The Prime Minister may be dismissed by the Monarch and/or a vote in the Senate, which triggers an election.

The Royal Regent, Lords, Magistrates, Royal Advisors and Ministers sit in the Senate of the Realm, which advises the Monarch on all relevant issues and votes on proposals, giving legitimacy to the Monarch's decisions and sometimes rejecting them.

The Senate of the Realm
The Royal Regent, Lords, Magistrates, Field Marshals, Royal Advisors and Ministers sit in the Senate of the Realm, which advises the Monarch on all relevant issues and votes on proposals, giving legitimacy to the Monarch's decisions and sometimes rejecting them.
