The Empire of Unito, more commonly known as Unito, is a micronation in Bahia. It was unified as a micronation on 15 November 2024 when four different micronations agreed to do so. Since then, Unito has stablished itself as a monarchy, passing through ministerial monarchy (form of government made by emperor Marlon I) and shortly after replaced by a constitutional monarchy on 5 October 2024. Unito has passed through 3 constitutions, having the current one ratified on 15 November 2024. In addition to that, Unito has passed through a civil war known as the Unitese Republican Insurrection on 12 October 2024, when military men and a civil tried to take power and make Unito a republic.
Unito is a heredtary constitutional monarchy with four branches: the Judiciary Power, the Executive Power, the Legislative Power and the Moderator Power, each beign respectively exercised by the Supreme Imperial Judge, President of the Council of Ministers, Council of Ministers and Emperor.
Unito's reason to be a micronation is to achive creativity, political innovation, fun and to protest against the republican system that has been imposed to the Brazilian people on 15 November 1889 after a coup d'etat.
Etymology
Unito's name came from the union of four different micronations as Unito is a modification of the word "unitas", which means "union" in Latin.
History
Unito unified on 15 September 2024 after the agreement of the Republic of Alvorado, Republic of Tatuland, Republic of Bernardiland and the Kingdom of Formigopoles. When unifying, a voting stablished Unito as a monarchy, having the king Marlon I of Formigopoles as emperor Marlon I of Unito and Matheus (who wasn't a micronationalist) President of the Council of Ministers.
On 26 November 2024, Marlon I proposes a constitution to the Council of Ministers, which is accepted, making Unito a unitary ministerial monarchy. Later on, on 5 October 2024, the President of the Council of Ministers, along with Marlon I, ratifies a new constitution, making Unito a unitary constitutional monarchy, founding the war and general affairs ministries. The next day, 27 September 2024, a reform on the municipalities division is made.
On 9 October 2024, Unito signs a alliance treaty with the Democratic Republic of Quintaquistan, marking the start of a strong bond and friendship. However, a conflict was around the corner and on October 12, there was a disagreement over the production of weapons for a possible war with the Basque Republic, which threatened an invasion, espionage and vandalism, in addition to comments detrimental to the image of the head of government and head of state of Unito, resulting in an internal conflict between military, civilians and politicians. After a brief riot, one of the military men, Marcinho, proclaimed the Republic of Unito. The Republican Insurrection of Unitese had officially erupted, led by Marcinho, who was appointed president by the republicans. After intense fighting, the Imperial Forces managed to repel the rebels, thanks to the lack of ammunition on the republican side and the bravery of Ryan Rios, current Count of Ryvania, achieving victory around 7:40 p.m.
On 15 November 2024, Unito ratified it's current constitution and on 22 November 2024, Ryan Rios took office as President of the Council of Ministers
Politics and government
The government of Unito is a constitutional monarchy where the head of State position is passed hereditarily. Its current constitution ratified on 15 November 2024, defines the division into four powers: the Executive Power, the Legislative Power, the Judiciary Power and the Moderating Power.
Executive Power
The Executive Power is exercised by the President of the Council of Ministers (informally referred as Prime Minister), which is nominated by the emperor. The President of the Council of Ministers nominates and dismisses ministers of the Council of Ministers, in addition to opening and closing ministries.
The President of the Council of Ministers establishes the Government policies and coordinates the actions of the Cabinet members. As chief executive, the Prime Minister also advises the monarch on the exercise of their imperial prerogatives.
Upon a vacancy, the monarch nominates a person to hold the position on an interim basis until a new one is appointed by the same. The Prime Minister is not necessarily leader of the largest party in the Council of Ministers. The Prime Minister's official residence and office is their own residence.
Official title
The Unitese head of government has been known, since the foundation of Unito, as "President of the Council of Ministers" (Portuguese: Presidente do Conselho de Ministros).
This term could be confusing for English speakers because Unito is not a republic.
Unito is not unique in history in this regard, for example: the title "President of the Council of Ministers" was used by Portugal (during the Kingdom of Portugal and the Portuguese Estado Novo) and Brazil (during the Empire of Brazil, between 1847 and 1889, and during the parliamentary phase of the Fourth Brazilian Republic, between 1961 and 1963).
Legislative Power
The Legislative Power is unicameral, exercised by the Council of Ministers, which has all members nominated by the President of the Council of Ministers. The Council of Ministers has the prerogative to elect a regency and mark it's limits of your authority and power in case of vacancy of the emperor, present political proposals, appoint a guardian to the minor emperor if his father was not appointed in his will, resolve doubts about the succession of the crown, choose a new dynasty in the event of the extinction of the emperor, make laws, interpret them, suspend them and revoke them. them, discuss proposals made by the Executive Branch and open a process for the abdication of the ruling monarch if necessary.
The Council of Ministers is formed by ministries which can be open and closed according to the President of the Council of Ministers decisions. Every proposal presented by the Council of Ministers must be sanctioned by the emperor in order to be passed. If the emperor does not respond within a month of the proposal, this will be recognized as a refusal and shall not pass. If a divergence of ideas, opinions or proposals occurs in the Council of Ministers, the matter must be resolved peacefully with a vote among the ministers.
Judiciary Power
The Judiciary Power is exercised by the Imperial Supreme Judge, who is nominated by the emperor and, if necessary, can be summoned at any time, having total autonomy and freedom to execute his judgments.
Moderating Power
The Moderating Power is fundamental to the entire political organization and is attributed exclusively to the emperor, who must exercise his prerogatives with total responsibility and wisdom to ensure the maintenance of balance and harmony between the other political powers. With that power, the emperor has the prerogatives to nominate the Prime Minister, dissolve the Council of Ministers and dismiss the Prime Minister, convene ministerial meetings whenever deemed convenient, sanction or not the political projects presented by the Council of Ministers, represent the State in international relations, propose policies to the Council of Ministers, appoint positions in the Imperial Armed Forces and remove them, declare war and make peace , communicating to the Council of Ministers information compatible with the interests and security of the State, granting titles, honors, military orders and distinctions in recognition of services provided by the State and granting letters of naturalization in accordance with the law.
