Albionish Imperial Government


The government of the Empire of Albion-Merité is a limited parliamentary monarchy, with the primary executive power vested in a dual monarch.  The imperial head of state acts as the head of state for both of the peoples that make up the empire.  He is, at once, the king of the Meritéans, the emperor of the Albionish, and the emperor of Albion-Merité.  The monarch executes his duties to the state with the assistance of an Imperial Court.  The Imperial Court is composed of the head of each of the government's many ministries.  The ministries currently operating under Emperor Maximilian II's reign are listed below, along with the name and photograph of the head of each ministry, and a brief description of the ministry's duties.
