▲==Government==
▲The Tavari Union is a federal system, with the three states having their own governments that have the ability to control affairs within their borders. As amended by the Good Harbor Agreement, the Constitution of the Tavari Union establishes that the central government has only those powers that are explicitly delegated to it in the constitution, with all other powers belonging to the states. On the federal level, the executive of the country is the cabinet, led by a Premier. The legislature is the Assembly of the Union, which consists of two chambers: the Council of Communities and the National Assembly.
▲The Council of Communities, which serves as an upper house, has seventeen members, one each elected from constitutionally-defined communities within each state. Tavaris has nine Councillors, one for each traditional chiefdom. Bana has six Councillors, with two designated specifically for Bana's autonomous communities of elves and four for the rest of the state. New Rania has two Councillors, one for the city of Ranisport and one for what is known as the out-country. As an upper house, the Council of Communities is designed to be a consultative body, and it is ultimately less powerful than the lower house. It has a unique voting system, referred to as a "qualified majority," in which a majority must have at least one member from each state voting in favor in order to pass the body. In order for legislation to become law, it is typically required to be passed by the Council of Communities as well as the National Assembly. However, if the Council rejects a bill passed by the National Assembly, the National Assembly can pass the bill again with a two-thirds majority in order to override the council, or it can pass the bill by a normal majority and send it again to the Council to reconsider. If a bill is rejected twice by the Council but passed three times by the National Assembly, it is considered to have passed the entire legislature. The Council of Communities is also the body that elects the monarch. A two thirds majority of the membership, in which at least two thirds of each state delegation votes in favor, is required to elect a monarch.
▲The National Assembly is the larger and more powerful of the two chambers. It consists of 825 members: Bana has 403 members, Tavaris has 385 members, and New Rania has 37 members. The Constitution requires that each state be given a number of seats proportional to their share of population, and each state has the authority to determine how their members are elected. Bana and Tavaris elect their members from single-member, first-past-the-post districts, with the exception of the Autonomous Elven Communities of Bana, which each act as multi-member districts that use an alternative vote proportional system. New Rania elects its members via a party-list proportional system.
▲For a bill to become law, it must technically receive Royal Assent, but the Constitution strictly disallows the monarch from vetoing a law passed by the Assembly of the Union. The monarch also technically appoints the Premier and the members of cabinet, but is obligated to select the Premier nominated by the National Assembly and the members of cabinet named by the Premier. The monarch does not have formally established reserve powers, but is empowered to give advice and counsel to the government and may advise the Premier to send a bill to the Constitutional Court if they feel it is unconstitutional.

New Rania is the smallest state in the
New Rania was founded in 1747 by a group of religious outcasts exiled from feline lands in the interior of the continent. "Old" Rania was a location in the interior from which many of the first exiles had been from. They had to migrate through both dense jungles and over the Danvreas Range of mountains, a journey the New Ranites called "the Long Walk." After the long walk, the New Ranites settled in a city they called Ranisport, which was built atop the ruins of an abandoned former feline city
The New Ranite Church is a religious belief centered around the teachings of a prophet called Ori, who taught that the traditional pantheon of the northern Gondwanan felines was false and that the afterlife would only be open to people who followed his teachings. Ori taught about the holiness in "ordinary work and toil" such as craftsmanship or farming, and calls for women to serve primarily as wives and homemakers. While the Church no longer holds official power in New Rania, more than two-thirds of the New Ranite population continues to follow the faith. The High Prophet of the New Ranite Church remains a powerful figure, although since the separation of church and state, the law in New Rania has gradually established protections for things such as women in the workplace and restrictions on child labor.
Nearly half of New Rania's population is in the Ranisport metropolitan area, with the outer areas (called "the out-country") much more sparsely populated. The areas of New Rania to the east, south of the Loko River and Lake Unar, are known as "Translokonia" and is largely a protected wilderness area
