The Holy Empire of Canales is an absolute monarchy.
Ruled by the Holy Emperor Canales, who is also known as the defender of the faith.
The official religion of Canales is Christianity.
While other religions are tolerated, they are encouraged to convert to Christianity as are the rulers of other nations.
The Bible is a required course in all public schools.
Canales is a nation that has been historically neutral in international conflict.
While there is no Parliament, the Emperor does have a panel of advisors that advise him on matters of domestic and foreign policy.
All government decisions are abetted against the Bible and those that violate the Bible are struck down by the Emperor.
The emperor appoints all the high judges in the nation and any citizen of Canales may, by right, appeal the decision of any judge or jury directly to the Emperor himself.
There is no free market in Canales, though the government sells uranium on the international market. (All natural resources, including uranium mines, are the personal property of the emperor.)
The Holy Empire seeks to establish diplomatic relations with other nations.
