Government

The Government of the Divine Kingdom is headed by the Monarch who holds supreme authority over all other government positions. An assembly of appointed officials known as the Council of Nobles acts as the heads of the various ministries that make up the government. A separate assembly of the commons is made up of elected representatives of the people from the various provinces across the kingdom. The Assembly of Commons has no power, but merely acts as a more efficient method for the people to bring issues before the royal court.

The highest level of authority is the Monarch King Harold Wallace III of the house of thistle and thorn. The next in line is the crowned prince, usually the first born son of the monarch in this case Prince Coll McCree. All positions of government are ultimately appointed by the Monarch since the Monarch appoints those who name others to positions.

(Before anyone is like OMGZ more than 5% in the military, Milita Units are not trained by the National Government but rather lightly trained Provincial police forces, Inactive reserves are those who have served the required eight years of service and can be called back for another four years, veterans or prior service which now hold civilian jobs and dont train or do any military exercises. And would only be called back for very large scale conflicts namely defending the homeland from invasion)

As the demands of modern warfare required for military forces to be more mobile, and able to react to a variety of threats, perhaps even simaltaneously the Unkerlantian high command deemed it necessary to restructure select army units into Modularized Army Groups for forces which would be rapidly deployed to postions around the globe.
