The politics of the Queendom of Iboma (''lwuTendane lw'Iboma'') take place in the framework of a multiparty liberal representative democracy under an elected constitutional monarchy. The Goddess Akrona (''mwuDzimu Akronya'') through the Crown (''lwuTsiwane'') imparts the country with its sovereignty and gives its government authority, powers and dignities vested in the Queen (''mwuTenda'') which she exercises largely on the advice of the Chancellor (''mwuKanziliri''). The Chancellor leads the Council of Ministers (the de facto executive branch of the govermment), the Executive Committee of the Council of Elders. She is always the leader of the largest party in the Council of the People (the lower house of the National Assembly). The Queen and the National Assembly form the legislative branch while the Queen, Supreme Chambers of Justice and other courts form the judicial branch. The Constitution of Iboma is unwritten and consists of traditions, laws and judicial precedents.
==Founding==
Originally there were 12 tribes which lived in the islands that today comprise Iboma. They were autonomous and ruled over themselves. However, they recognized the symbolic position of a Matriarch who was a symbol of their shared heritage. Unfortunately, they were facing several challenges in the late 16th century such as natural disasters and foreign invasion. Unable to coordinate their efforts and pool resources due to mutual distrust and self-interest they remained weak and suffered greatly. The first Queen and last Matriarch, Mujaji I, brought the leaders of the nations together at Komodu and convinced them to form a united country with her as the Queen. They agreed and this agreement is called the Covenant of the Twelve Tribes.
