Editing Trinity:Ronkan Empire (section)

==Political Structure==
The whole of the Ronkan Empire was ruled by an Emperor. While the charter that established the Empire provided for guidelines of choosing a new emperor, the original emperor, [[Trinity:Jeremiah_Salvitor | Jeremiah Salvitor]] would remain emperor from the empire's inception until its demise. The emperor served as the leading figurehead of the government.

However, the emperor was not given absolute power. Those who formed the empire knew that some of their issues with the Woodland League had stemmed from the fact that that nation had only one governing body; ergo, those who founded the Ronkan Empire decided to put two into place. Each city incorporated into the Empire was allowed to send two senators to Ronka; the city of Ronka itself was allowed one senator, who became the head of the senate. The senators served as both as a legislative and judiciary for the empire. At its peak, the Ronkan Senate consisted of 27 members, including the head.
