Caivian Government

Caivia is ruled by an absolute monarchy. Ruling has always been by the then King of the lands, and his royal bloodline.

The **current King and ruler of Caivia is King Nathaniel Platt** who has divided the **administrative divisions** of **Northern and Southern Caivia** amongst his two sons, **Demetrius and Damianus**.

## Public Service and Administration:

As was mentioned earlier, the administrative divisions of Caivia are split between the Southern Region and the Northern Region. All matters pertaining to city administration has a hierarchical system that must be followed. Only the matters of utmost importance reach the King and Queen, otherwise the division is as follows (highest rank to lowest):

1. *Royal:* Member of the Royal Family
2. *Advisor:* For Demetrius - Matthew Carter, For Damianus - Andrew Valios (both serve King Nathaniel as well).
3. *Nobles:* Generally sat in the House of Seven
4. *Knights and Dames:* Serving the Royals, Military men and women.
5. *Esquires / Gentry:* Religious personnel.

*Farmers and Merchants:* High ranked Merchants were part of the **House of Seven**

## Rulers

## Home Affairs

**Caivia’s Department of Home Affairs** (CDOHA) is based in the city of **Tergaron** and its current minister is **Samuel Cailen**.

The duties of the department include:

1. Recording of births, marriages and deaths.
2. Issuing passes to foreigners coming in.
3. Issuing and maintenance of communication to all citizens.
4. Controlling land border ports and portals. The current situation of DOHA has come under fire from Caivians for lack of appropriate management and **King Nathaniel Platt** is overlooking on mitigating the alleviances of the citizens.

## Foreign Affairs

Cavia’s foreign affairs is a bimonthly publication that oversees its relations with the other Kingdoms, particularly its alliances with Thallian and Chellearenth, formed as a result of the Atemnity War. Each year, the King and the House of Seven travel to the other kingdoms to assess the financial and other matters of all the Kingdoms. Part of the discussion is based on the idea of having concrete steps laid out to discuss border relations and evolving policies for foreigners.

## Finance

Cavia’s finances are controlled by the Department of Finance based in the city of Stratham which itself is a bustling trade center. The currency of Caivia is known as Calros and comes in the shape of a small pentagonal piece (roughly ½” x ½”) and is deep green in color. Caivia accepts all other forms of currencies in Atemnity, which can be used simultaneously with Calros.

## Intelligence

Not much is known about Caivia’s Secret Service (CSS) except to the Royal family. The service is responsible for directly contacting the Royal guards of any important developments. Protective Borders Security also comes under the CSS.

## Welfare and Population Development

In 1875, the Caivian Welfare Development program was launched which overlooked social development and rights of the people of Caivia. These include but are not limited to; the right to housing, education, living, health, science and culture.

## Labour

The labour force of Caivia constitutes 67% of the population. The **Union of Caivian Labourers** is an active union that ensures the labour force is content in all matters. Headed by **Laikin Alfred** and overlooked by **Andrew Valios**, the union ensures labour related matters are resolved as soon as possible. In 1943, a massive civil strife erupted between the farmers of **Tergaron** and **Eagleswood**, which was resolved after a thorough investigation and involvement of the **House of Seven**. The labourers were given compensation for the losses incurred to them with additional benefits to the ownerships of their lands.
