Politics

The Empire was an imperial monarchy led by a divine emperor.

Emperor Ottavio Makesini, formally Garantius XLII, reformed the empire in the 860s AIC. The lands of Faendal were feudalised into two new duchies Kronen and Ordensburg and the status of Free Imperial City was granted to the great cities of Archadia, Nicolovia, Freiburg and Garantinopolis. The Kingdom of Nicoloviana was also disbanded, since István Nagy lacked an heir.

Additionally, the Consilium Basileii was established. This was an assembly of the most important nobles of the Empire, as well as representatives of the Free Cities, which would advise the Emperor on all the issues that would require his assistance. The Consilium would also have the right to revoke a title of any of its member should it deem them unworthy of being a servant of the Empire. Furthermore, a member who would not attend the meetings of the Consilium for two years would have his titles revoked without any need of approval. Therefore, the members have the option of choosing a representative of them who would sit on the Consilium instead.
