Emperor of Kameyama

天皇
--

Empress Isa | Incumbent

The **Empress of Kameyama** holds a significant position as the **monarch** and head of the **Imperial Family** of **Kameyama**. Within the **constitutional framework of Kameyama**, the Empress is considered the symbol of the Kameyamese state and represents the unity of the Kameyamese people. Her role and position are derived from the recognition of "the will of the people with whom resides sovereign power," as outlined in the **Kameyama Constitution**.

The line of imperial succession in Kameyama is governed by the **Imperial Household Law**, which provides guidelines for the orderly transfer of the title and responsibilities of the Empress. As a constitutional symbol, the Empress is **immune** from prosecution by the **judicial system of Kameyama**, including the **Supreme Court**.

The use of the term "*Mikado*" (**帝／御門***)* in English to refer to the emperor was once common but is now considered obsolete. Instead, the respectful term "*Tennō*" (**天皇**), which translates to "**Emperor of Heaven**" or "**Heavenly Sovereign**," is used in reference to the Empress in Kameyama.

**Isa** is the current emperor of Kameyama. She acceded to the Chrysanthemum Throne upon the abdication of her father, **Emperor don't know yet**, on 1 May 1969.

## Constitutional Role

In addition to her role as the head of the Imperial Family, the Empress is recognized as having a role in the **Shinto religion** in Kameyama. Some followers of the **Japanese Shinto tradition** view the Empress as a direct descendant of the sun goddess **Amaterasu**. However, beliefs regarding this lineage may vary among individuals and within different Shinto communities.

The Empress also assumes the responsibility of being the **head of all national Kameyamese orders, decorations, medals,** and **awards**. Her authority in conferring and overseeing these honors is an important aspect of her ceremonial duties.

Unlike many constitutional monarchs, the empress is not even the *nominal* chief executive. Most constitutional monarchies formally vest executive power in the monarch, but the monarch is bound by **convention** to act on the advice of the cabinet or required to exercise her powers through the ministers. In contrast, Article 67 of the **Constitution of Kameyama** explicitly vests executive power in the **cabinet**, of which the **chief executive** is the leader. The empress is also not the commander-in-chief of the Kameyama National Defense Forces. The Kameyama Defense Force Act of 1972 explicitly vests this role with the chief executive.

The role of the Empress in the Federation of Kameyama is limited to important ceremonial functions, as outlined in the **Constitution**. She is not allowed to have powers related to government or make political statements. The Empress is required to seek the advice and approval of the **Cabinet** for all acts in matters of state, and her duties can be delegated as provided by law. Her primary responsibilities involve representing the state, fostering unity, and upholding cultural traditions through her participation in official events. The constitutional limitations on her powers aim to maintain the separation of powers and uphold the democratic principles of the **Federation of Kameyama.**
