I love politics!

The senate has, in theory, the same power to pass/change/remove laws as the Emperor/Empress does, although the monarch has more power because his/her decrees go into automatically and instantly, while the senate votes on things. Unless there's some significant urgency for a law, the senate usually handles legal stuff. In the Yamataian government, there is no need for an Emperor/Empress, so if one resigns, dies, or is kicked out for incompetency (in theory, the Ketsurui clan or the Senate could), the Senate could rule for years without picking a new one (such as the two years after Empress Yuumi died).

That's what I was thinking more or less. Though that makes more sense for a more modernized way the Empire would operate. How does that play into inducting new member-states into the Empire? Does the Emperess have veto power in those and other cases? Is it vice versa, with the senate having to vote with 80% to turn over am Imperial mandate? I'm just curious as to hypotheticals, really. Has this been decided already, or like the idea of a pseudo-RP body have these not been ironed out?

I was just thinking of some character that could be an extremist for reform, or something. One of those unrealistic politicans that represents only the intrest of the self or their constituates than that of the goverening party. Make it a real windbag, too. That could get interesting, or funny depending on the playstyle?
 
I would be more than happy to make a Natarian NPC representative.

How many of the representatives are against this?
 
Political RP between the Factions would be interesting. Like, all factions who have a treaty with Yamatai having to do a thing? Apparently, this happens often and with horrible outcomes. I feel people aren't really communicating properly if this is always the case.

Me and Doshii are dealing with our Diplomatic Meeting perfectly fine I feel, but since this competition, I have gotten some mixed messages from various things I have posted. Maybe I'm not doing as well as I thought? IDK. A thread with all sorts of people would be perfect for this. I feel at least. Still, political RP, if the players stay light hearted can be hilariously fun!

We do have political RP between the factions. In particular every 2 years we have the International Relations Conference. There's also the back and forth messaging in the communications forum.

Can you be more specific? I don't even know what you're talking about here.
