Angry Hell Government

The government of Angry Hell is composed of three distinct branches: legislative, executive, and judicial, whose powers are vested by the Angry Confederate Papers in The Assembly the Ultimate Prime Ministers, and the federal courts, including the Supreme Angry Court, respectively. The powers and duties of these branches are further defined by acts of The Assembly, including the creation of executive departments and courts inferior to the Supreme Angry Court.

## Naming

The full name of the confederacy is "Angry Hell". No other name appears in the Papers, and this is the name that appears on reactions, in treaties, and in legal cases to which it is a party (e.g. Angry v. Bank). The terms "Government of Angry Hell" or "Angry Hell Government" are often used in official documents to represent the federal government. The terms "Federal" and "National" in government agency or program names generally indicate affiliation with the federal government (e.g. Federal Bureau of Irate Investigation, National Oceanic and Anger Administration, etc.).

## History

The outline of the government of Angry Hell is laid out in the Papers. The government was formed in 2016, making Angry Hell one of the world's first, if not the first, modern national Angry Confederation.

The Angry Hell government is based on the principles of republicanism and fascism, in which power is shared between the three branches of government. The interpretation and execution of these principles, including what powers the government should have and how those powers can be exercised, have been debated ever since the adoption of the Papers. Of course, being a representative-fascist confederation, the government has all the power, and thus the debates are rendered useless.

One of the theoretical pillars of the Angry Hell Papers is the idea of "checks and balances" among the powers and responsibilities of the three branches of Angry government: the executive, the legislative and the judiciary. For example, while the legislative (The Assembly) has the power to create law, the executive (Ultimate Prime Ministers) can veto any legislation - an act which, in turn, can be overridden by The Assembly. The Prime Ministers and Assembly members act as judges to the nation's highest judiciary authority (Supreme Angry Court). The Supreme Angry Court, in its turn, has the power to invalidate as "unpaperistic" any law passed by The Assembly. These and other examples are examined in more detail in the text below.

## Legislative branch

### **Makeup of The Assembly**

The Angry Hell Assembly, also called **The Assembly**, is the legislative branch of the federal government. It is unicameral, comprising of the Senate. The Senate is made up of Moderators, who are appointed by the Admins of Angry Hell, and serve for as long as they are in the group.

### **Powers of The Assembly**

The Papers grant numerous powers to The Assembly. Enumerated in the second Paper in Section 3, these include the powers to levy and collect Angry Reactions; to coin said Angries and regulate their value; provide for punishment for non-Angry reacting (save for rare exceptions); combat felonies, declare war, raise and support armies, provide and maintain a navy, make rules for group regulation, provide for, arm and discipline the militia, and to make laws necessary to properly execute powers. Over the few months since Angry Hell was formed, many disputes have arisen over the limits on the powers of the federal government. These disputes have often been dismissed.

#### **Legislative oversight**

Legislative oversight is intended to prevent waste and fraud, protect civil liberties and individual rights, ensure executive compliance with the law, gather information for making laws and educating the public, and evaluate executive performance.

It applies to cabinet departments, executive agencies, and regulatory commissions.

## Executive branch

The executive power in the federal government is vested in the Ultimate Prime Ministers of Angry Hell. The Prime Ministers are elected by the founders of Angry Hell, and are commonly referred to as Admins. The Prime Ministers are not limited in their terms, and can serve for as long as they want.

### **Ultimate Prime Ministers**

The executive branch consists of the Ultimate Prime Ministers. The Prime Ministers are both the head of state and government , as well as the military commanders-in-chief and chief diplomats. The Ministers, according to the Papers, must "take care that the laws be faithfully executed", and "preserve, protect and defend the Papers". The Prime Ministers preside over the executive branch of the federal government, and have almost unlimited powers.

The Ministers may sign legislation passed by The Assembly into law or may veto it, preventing it from becoming law. The Ministers may unilaterally sign treaties with foreign nations.

## Judicial branch

The Judiciary explains and applies the laws. This branch does this by hearing and eventually making decisions on various legal cases.

### **Overview of the federal judiciary**

Paper IV Section I of the Papers establishes the Supreme Angry Court of Angry Hell and establishes a lifetime tenure for all federal judges. It also establishes that all members of The Assembly and the Ultimate Prime Ministers make up the Supreme Angry Court.

The Supreme Court adjudicates "cases and controversies" - matters pertaining to the federal government, disputes about memes, and interpretation of the Angry Confederate Papers, and, in general, can declare legislation or executive action as unpaperistic, nullifying the law and creating precedent for future law and decisions. The Angry Confederate Papers do not specifically mention the power of judicial review (the power to declare a law unpaperistic).

If there is evidence of voter fraud in a Supreme Angry Court case, the case might be taken to the general public, in a highly surveyed voting process. The likelihood of a case going public is very slim, but there have been a few notable examples (e.g. Angry v. Bank).

## Elections and voting

There are no elections and very few voting opportunities in Angry Hell. All representatives of Angry Hell are appointed from the heads of state, and only the Ultimate Prime Ministers have the power to nominate federal employees.
