Politics of the Allied States

The Allied States is a unicameral semi-unitary federal republic, in which the President of the Allied States (the head of state and head of government), Senate and judiciary share powers reserved to the national government. State governments have a degree of sovereignty, however, federal policy, law, and agencies have superiority. The executive branch is headed by the President and is independent of the legislature, however both the President and Vice President have limited legislative power. Legislative power is vested in the the Senate. The judicial branch (or judiciary), composed of the Supreme Court and lower federal courts, exercises judicial power (or judiciary). The judiciary's function is to interpret the Constitution of the Allied States and federal laws and regulations. This includes resolving disputes between the executive and legislative branches.

Two political parties, the Democratic Party and the Confederate Party dominate American politics, although other parties do exist. There are major differences between the political system of the Allied States and that of most other developed democracies. These include a wider scope of power held by the Supreme Court, the separation of powers between the legislature and the executive, and the dominance of only two main parties. Third parties have less political influence in the Allied States than in other developed country democracies.
