First Prince of the Federated Suns
Template:Refimprofe The First Prince is the head-of-state of the Federated Suns and the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns. The office is best described as a hereditary and constitutional monarchy with limits placed upon the monarch's powers. While the office is open to both sexes the title remains "Prince" in either case.
Every heir-apparent is required to serve for five years in the military in a branch of his or her choosing. This tradition solidfies the loyalty and support from the armed forces. A failure to fulfill this military duty may turn the heir-apparent.
In theory the First Prince has to submit his proposals to the High Council, a group of representatives chosen by the leadership of the member-worlds of the Federated Suns. In reality the High Council is largely a glorified "rubber stamp" organization.
The First Prince is advised by the Privy Council, a group of high-ranking ministers and officers. They are extremely important in the running of the day-to-day affairs of the state.
The citizens of the realm also have several basic rights protected by law and custom. This includes the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right of appeal to the central government in order to have unpopular or destructive noblemen removed from office.
Only a foolish First Prince will atempt to suspend these liberties; those who do will not keep their throne for long.
