Government

The government is in charge of the country. The positions of government are all player made besides for the country president and congress. Therefore only the country president and congress members are the ones who have the real power. As mentioned before all ministry positions are made up by players to split the work load they have when president.

Positions of government

Country Presidency, CP - The CP holds the highest amount of authority in the nation, his primary duty is of course to govern the country. He may focus on the military aspect, by perhaps assigning the Irish Army to certain tasks, reforming the state of the Irish Army, set up some kind of cooperation between the different military units in the country or even break them down. He might focus on the foreign affairs aspect, by setting up negotiations, bonding with new allies, or older ones, planning cooperation with nations or quite the opposite. He is, in short, involved in all aspects of government.

Vice Presidency, VP - The duty of the Vice President is to assist the president in everything he does, give a second opinion on things, and step into the shoes of the president when the president can't be present. Perhaps the president decides to take a trip? Well, should that be the case, the Vice President would take over from the president, and govern the country, until the president should return. He is the closest associate of the president in the government.

Chief of Staff, CoS - The Chief of Staff is the line of communication between the president (Or Vice President, should that be the case) and the rest of the executive government. Many people associate the work of the Chief of Staff with the army, but this is however not necessarily the case. The Chief of Staff may assign the ministers to certain duties planned by the CP/VP, for example. It is also his duty to make sure that the ministers are doing their job, and should they not he has the authority to warn them, Should they still not fulfil their duty, he might even remove, and perhaps replace, them, should the CP/VP comply.

Ambassadors - An ambassador has the quite simple task to communicate with a specific country assigned to the ambassador by the MoFA.

Ministry of Defence, MoD - The MoD is the highest authority, after CP and VP, in the army of the nation.
