The politics of Packilvania take place in the framework of a nominally theocratic constitutional hereditary monarchy. Although the Constitution of Packilvania ([[Packilvanian language|Packilvanian]]: ''LuKhanongur a-Bakhilfaniya'') sets out the structure of the government, in reality it grants the [[Sultan of Packilvania]] supreme legal authority. As such, the Sultan of Packilvania, currently [[Namdun III]], is considered an autocratic dictator. He is currently taking a prolonged hiatus and left his son and heir, Crown [[Prince Thumim a-Namdun Bedon]] as the Regent of Packilvania i.e., the monarch in his place since 2022.

At the end of the Second Packilvanian Civil War in 1985, senior leaders of the Packilvanian Communist Party signed an armistice with the [[Bedonite dynasty]]. Although the party was dissolved and formal political control was ceded to the [[Bedonite dynasty]], many Communist bureaucrats and politicians were granted amnesty and allowed to remain in the Civil Service and [[Packilvanian Armed Forces|Military]]. This precipitated a situation were the [[Bedonite dynasty]] has shared power with other state institutions. Nevertheless Princes of the Bedonite dynasty were appointed to important political positions to enable them to have ultimate control of the country and political system.

This precipitated a situation whereby the [[Bedonite dynasty]] has shared power with other state institutions. Nevertheless Princes of the Bedonite dynasty were appointed to important political positions to enable them to have ultimate control of the country and political system.

The Bedonite dynasty also retained many policies and institutions created by the Communist Party. For instance, they retained the inquisitorial criminal justice system and the Procuratorate on which it was built. Despite some privatisation and providing for the formation of privately-owned for-profit companies, the state retains considerable economic control through large state-owned corporations and continues to direct government policies through 5 year plans.


The executive branch comprises the [[Council of Ministers of Packilvania]]. Government ministers control various elements of state policy. The Prime Minister of Packilvania, currently [[Prince Luwadeen a-Harim Bedon]] is the head of government. The Council of Ministers proposes and executes legislation and oversees the running of the country. Through legislation, Ministers have the power to issue regulations and directives. Ministers are appointed by the Sultan at his pleasure. Under Prince Luwadeen and Prince Thumim, the Council of Ministers has enforced a campaign of modernisation, political consolidation and limited liberalisation.
