The Prime Minister selects all other Ministers who are the heads of their respective departments, and can be dismissed at any time by the Prime Minister. Zeprana has had a conservative led government since July 12, 2022 - when the Worker's Party of Zeprana led by Matthew Cunningham was removed from power when Zeprana became part of Ela'r'oech once more, and formed the United Kingdom of the Great Bayou. The Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister are the Chairman and Co-Chairman of the Cabinet, which is responsible for the supreme decision making within the nation. The Government composes of Ministers and representatives from and to the crown, the Parliament of the Kingdom of Zeprana, as well as members of local governments who serve within subdivisions in Zeprana. The nation is divided up into Arcadia, Carolusia, New South Amesston, and Kaiserton, all of which have local Prime Minister's known as State Ministers. State's within Zeprana also have local legislatures, and have the constitutional right to send representatives to the House of Commons, and may have citizens appointed to the House of Lords. The Government is the direct representative of the Monarch of the Elarian Empire, in which Zeprana is part of - unlike many other constituent states within personal unions the Kingdom of Zeprana lacks a Governor General and has increased autonomy. Under the unmodified constitution of the Kingdom of Zeprana, which composes of the Declaration of Indepdence, Legal Code (civil and criminal) and the Parliamentary Standing Orders of the House and the Constitution of the United Kingdom of the Great Bayou, as well as the standing orders of the Parliament of the Great Bayou - the Monarch is the sovereign of the nation, with them taking the style of King or Queen, however previously Monarchs took the style of Emperor or Empress.

The Monarchy is rather ceremonial, with the nation being a Federal Constitutional Monarchy in a personal union, as it is a member state of the Elarian Empire and the Great Bayou. The recognized Royal House is the Ela'r'oech Royal Family which is the Madgett Family founded by Charles IV. General Elections are held every single six years, with the government holding office until after the election has commenced the the new government has been sworn into office. The Monarch can dissolve the government, as can the Parliament with an eighty-five percent majority vote with approval of the Prime Minister - in which case a general election shall be called to commence in a period no less than 30-days. The Privy Council serves as the honorary advisory council to the King, and is composed of Military and Police Leaders, diplomatic offices as well as ambassadors, and the Cheif Executive Officers of the leading Zeprnanan and Elarian Companies.

History

The Kingdom of Zeprana is a Constitutional Monarch in a Personal Union and member state of the Elarian Empire. Zeprana was originally founded on March 1, 2021 as a Constituent State of the Kingdom of Ela'r'oeh, however on November 14, 2021 under the order of Prime Minister Terry McKeen III Zeprana as well as Neo-Alaria seceded from Ela'r'oech out of protest for the rule of Christina I, Summi Imperatoria of Cycoldia during the 1st Elarian Monarchy Dispute. On July 12, 2022 - Zeprana became a realm of the Kingdom of Ela'r'oech once more, and a member of the Elarian Empire, uniting it with the Elarian Crown once more, making King Charles IV Monarch of Zeprana once more. This saw the end of the Government of President Matthew Cunningham and the end of the Workers Government of Zeprana which has been illegally ruling the nation for the past three months after rigging the May 2022 Zepranan Presidential and National Assembly General Election

Terry McKeen III was installed as Federal Prime Minister of Zeprana once again, and soon appointed Christoph Billung - long time Elarian Politican to serve as the Deputy Prime Minister. Other notable members of the Elarian Elite were appointed to serve as members as well, such as Andrew I of Pontunia, who had recently merged his nation Pontunia with Ela'r'oech to form the United Kingdom of the Great Bayou was appointed to serve as Minister of State. Terry McKeen III announced Zeprana's full intention to "unite with their Elarian Fatherland once more" on July 9, 2022 - which became so on July 12, 2022 when Zeprana legally became part of the Kingdom of Ela'r'oech and the Elarian Empire once more. New Ministers were appointed and the National Assembly of Zeprana was dissolved and replaced with the Parliament. Zeprana adopted a criminal and civil code, which was in accordance with the legal code of the United Kingdom of the Great Bayou. Zeprana also adopted other aspects of Elarian and Bayou Law to help assimilate itself into Ela'r'oech once more. Zeprana had an easier time transitioning to be a realm of Ela'r'oech with it being Elarian and Worrellian ethnically and culturally.
