Editing Myenru (section)

==Government==

The highest governmental level of the Myenru species is the Onyx Throne. The Throne is controlled by the First Prime, or Primus,  who is the effective head of the Governmental body responsible for the secular development and well-being of the Myenru people. The First Prime is the leader of the Myenru Military, although recent developments have given the High Prelate a great deal of control over the functions of the Onyx throne.

The Current First Prime is Hel'shem'blac. He assumed the throne with the assistance of the current High Prelate Mor'Lor'Shel'Shabaz after his father died prematurely and his four brothers threatened to thrust the Empire into Civil War. The Primus is very young and is just now realizing that he was manipulated into ceding several critical powers to the High Prelate.

The Church of the Myenru is controlled by the High Prelate. The powers of the church extend to the spiritual well-being of the population. The current religion was established several centuries ago. The Victor of a religious ideological conflict, failure to follow the precepts of the Myenru religion as laid out in the Codices is subject to execution.

At a more social level there are other forces at work. At the colonial level a series of Cabinets, or offices, exist. All lower levels of government fall under the secular jurisdiction of the Onyx Throne. The City Governors appoint the controllers of these offices. Even the smallest towns possess these political organizations. Each city government possesses a cabinet of Law; Education; Trade; Resources; Civil Service; Transportation; Foreign Matters, and Health. A minister who answers directly to the City Governor heads each of these cabinets. 

*The Cabinet of Laws is responsible for the punishment of crime, the maintenance of order, and the apprehension of fugitives.  

*The Cabinet of Education is responsible for the setting and maintenance of the educational levels of the populace in their sphere of influence.

*The Cabinet of Trade is responsible for the collection of taxes, establishment of trade laws and agreements, and the monitoring of merchant houses.

*The Cabinet of Resources is responsible for the collection and processing of raw materials for use, and regulates all agencies that work in the mining, chemical and manufacturing industry.

*The Cabinet of Civil Service is responsible for the records and administration of the populace. They work closely with the other cabinets. 

*The Cabinet of Transportation is responsible for the development, upgrade and maintenance of all public transportation systems.  They also regulate the construction and operational requirements for private conveyances. 

*The Cabinet of Foreign Matters is responsible for the official diplomatic functions of the area in which they serve. They maintain delegates, diplomats, mediators and negotiators as needed.

*The Cabinet of Health is responsible to enforce secular laws, and to maintain medical standards for the population. 

These cabinets are mirrored on the colonial and State level, with those ministers responsible for the behavior and efficiency of the Ministers within their Cabinet at the same level as well as those in a lower level of government. 

All Colonial Governors are appointed by the First Primus; They in turn appoint the State Governors, who in turn, appoint the City governors beneath them.  Each Governor is also responsible to appoint their cabinet Ministers.
