Pays-du-Verne

**Pays-du-Verne** (Ditrovian: *Verne Country*) is a region of Marone, located in western Marone. Modern-day Pays-du-Verne incorporates territory within the historic provinces of Ditrone, Tanjou, Pongé, and Féarn.

The region was formed in 1896, combining territory from Ditrone and Pitaine to create a region to serve as a zone of influence for the city of Banoît. Pays-du-Verne has a population of 3.1 million residents. Its prefecture is Banoît, which is also the largest city in the region. The region consists of five departments: Laienne, Oragne, Sanée, Tanjou-et-Verne, and Verne-Intérieur.

## Government

### Administrative divisions

Like other regions of metropolitan Marone, Pays-du-Verne is divided into departments. There are five departments in Pays-du-Verne: Laienne, Oragne, Sanée, Tanjou-et-Verne, and Verne-Intérieur.
President of Jalotte

**Term length** | Six yearsRenewable indefinitely

The **president of the General Council of Jalotte** (Maronan: *Président du conseil général de Jalotte*), often shortened to the **president of Jalotte**, is the head of government of Jalotte, an overseas region of Marone. Unlike in other countries, the president is not the head of state, as head of state duties are reserved for the president of Marone, with their power usually delegated to the prefect of Jalotte, appointed by the president of Marone. In effect, the president of Jalotte is the most powerful politician in Jahorian regional politics, leading the executive and legislative branches of government in a role akin to a prime minister.

As the head of government, the president is the leader of the government of Jalotte and manages their own cabinet of vice-presidents. Within the jurisdiction of the regional government, the president and their government have power over various issues such as budgeting, senatorial appointments, social and administrative services, primary school management, public transportation, and infrastructure, and the president may appoint members of the General Council to cabinet roles to oversee these responsibilities. As the leader of the legislative branch of regional government, the president also manages all legislative duties, including scheduling debates and votes and assigning members to committees. All proposed legislation is also submitted to the president's desk before committee review. The president is also the chief representative of the region and regional government in both national and international affairs. The president may not dissolve the legislature and is not the commander-in-chief of any armed forces. In case of a temporary or permanent incapability by the president to discharge the duties of his or her office, the membership of the General Council votes to select a replacement president to serve out the remainder of the presidential term, although the prefect may opt to call a snap election as well.

The president is directly elected through universal suffrage along with the remainder of members of the General Council. Presidential candidates each are selected as lead candidates of their electoral list prior to the election. The lead candidate of the electoral list which receives a majority of seats in the General Council is thus elected the president. If no list receives a majority of seats, the lead candidate of the list with the most seats in the negotiated governing coalition will be elected instead. The elected president serves for a term of six years, barring the collapse of their government, which may be renewed indefinitely. The president-elect is required to take an oath of office administered by the prefect of Jalotte, in the absence of the president of Marone.
Moutarde

**Moutarde** is a region of Marone, located in eastern Marone. Modern-day Moutarde roughly overlaps with the bulk of the historic province of Moutarde, which previously corresponded with the duchy of Moutarde.

The region was formed in 1845, following the establishment of the regions. Moutarde has a population of 2.2 million residents. Its prefecture is Houiseau, which is also the largest city in the region. The region consists of five departments: Becelles, Chevère, Petite-Côte, Jièvre, and Ronne.

Miss Ditrone

**Miss Ditrone** is a Maronan beauty pageant which selects a representative from the region of Ditrone for the Miss Marone pageant. The pageant has been held annually since 1934.

The current Miss Ditrone is Gwennegan Le Broudic, who was crowned Miss Ditrone 2023 on 30 September 2023.

## Qualification

Contestants qualify for Miss Ditrone by participating in and placing high enough in a departmental pageant. There are five departmental pageants for Miss Ditrone, each corresponding with the departments of Ditrone:

* Miss Cerrain
* Miss Côte-Verte
* Miss Jaffrès
* Miss Quéré
* Miss Tilly-et-Eouzan

In each departmental pageant, the winner, first runner-up, and second runner-up qualify for Miss Ditrone, resulting in 15 candidates qualifying each year.

If a departmental titleholder does not win Miss Ditrone and wishes to compete again, she may petition the Miss Ditrone Committee; if the petition is accepted, the departmental pageant will only qualify its winner and first runner-up and not the second runner-up, to ensure equal representation across departments; additionally, if two former departmental titleholders return, only the departmental winner will be qualified. As a result, no more than two candidates per department may opt to return each year. Petitions must be filed prior to the date of the departmental pageant, or they will not be accepted. Departmental runners-up who compete at Miss Ditrone are not eligible to petition, and must compete in their departmental pageant again if they wish to return to Miss Ditrone.

President of Fuadeloupe

**Term length** | Six yearsRenewable indefinitely

The **president of the General Council of Fuadeloupe** (Maronan: *Président du conseil général de Fuadeloupe*), often shortened to the **president of Fuadeloupe**, is the head of government of Fuadeloupe, an overseas region of Marone. Unlike in other countries, the president is not the head of state, as head of state duties are reserved for the president of Marone, with their power usually delegated to the prefect of Fuadeloupe, appointed by the president of Marone. In effect, the president of Fuadeloupe is the most powerful politician in Taharian regional politics, leading the executive and legislative branches of government in a role akin to a prime minister.

As the head of government, the president is the leader of the government of Fuadeloupe and manages their own cabinet of vice-presidents. Within the jurisdiction of the regional government, the president and their government have power over various issues such as budgeting, senatorial appointments, social and administrative services, primary school management, public transportation, and infrastructure, and the president may appoint members of the General Council to cabinet roles to oversee these responsibilities. As the leader of the legislative branch of regional government, the president also manages all legislative duties, including scheduling debates and votes and assigning members to committees. All proposed legislation is also submitted to the president's desk before committee review. The president is also the chief representative of the region and regional government in both national and international affairs. The president may not dissolve the legislature and is not the commander-in-chief of any armed forces. In case of a temporary or permanent incapability by the president to discharge the duties of his or her office, the membership of the General Council votes to select a replacement president to serve out the remainder of the presidential term, although the prefect may opt to call a snap election as well.

The president is directly elected through universal suffrage along with the remainder of members of the General Council. Presidential candidates each are selected as lead candidates of their electoral alliance by other candidates in their alliance prior to the election. The lead candidate of the electoral alliance which receives a majority of seats in the General Council is thus elected the president. The elected president serves for a term of six years, barring the collapse of their government, which may be renewed indefinitely. The president-elect is required to take an oath of office administered by the prefect of Fuadeloupe, in the absence of the president of Marone.

## Municipal government
