Article I: NATIONAL TERRITORY
1. The territory of the Free Republic shall consist of the regions of Augsburg, Bamberg, Darmstadt, Lippe, Magdeburg, Nördlingen, Schwerin, Sigmaringen, Swabia and Trier. All the regions are equal, and no region shall be given priority in terms of economy, military, budget, and so on.
2. The City of Augsburg in the Augsburg Region shall be the capital of the Free Republic, from which all matters of state shall be discussed and deliberated. It shall be headed by a City Governor designated by the President, who shall hold the office at the President's pleasure. He shall be tasked to execute municipal law and ordinances.
3. The territories of the Free Republic shall be an integral part of the Nation, and they shall be indissoluble, as are the regional councils and the civilian national government. They shall be protected and supported by the national government at all costs.
4. All islands within the exclusive maritime zone of the Nation shall be a territory of the Free Republic unless otherwise prescribed by international laws or conventions. Territories acquired or annexed by the Nation shall be administered directly by the national government, not the regions. They shall be directly led by a Territorial Governor designated by the President, who shall hold the office at His Excellency's pleasure.
Article II: GOVERNMENT
1a. Absolute executive authority shall be vested in a President of Drusselstein. He shall hold absolute authority over the Nation. He shall be the symbol of the State and of the unity of the people. He shall protect, enrich and execute the laws of the Nation. He shall hold the office for a limited term of four years, but may seek one re-election.
1b. An Electoral College shall be tasked to elect the President. It shall be composed of all the Members of Parliament and the Prime Minister, who may only vote in the case of a tie or any unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, there will be 1,000 electors, excluding the Prime Minister. The President shall, as mentioned, be elected every four years, but on the fifteenth (15th) day of the eleventh month. He shall be inaugurated on the thirtieth (30th) day (excluding Sundays) of the same month and year, but the transitional process may be waived if deemed unnecessary.
1c. The procedures of the election shall be the same in the case of an intra-term election, which is an election held when a president dies, resigns or is forced to step down. The College shall be given seven days to convene in such a case. The election will be held in the seat or meeting place of Parliament. All Members of Parliament and the Prime Minister may be nominated for the position, or may nominate themselves. The procedures of the election shall be kept a secret, and all electors must administer a pledge of secrecy before voting.
1c. The regions shall be headed by Regional Commissioners. The Regional Commissioners shall be designated by the President, and they shall serve at His Excellency's pleasure.
2a. Powers of making and passing legislation shall be vested in a unicameral Parliament of the Free Republic, which shall be composed of 1,000 members elected by the people and confirmed by the Electoral Tribunal. 100 members shall be allocated to each region, regardless of population.

The Tribunal shall be composed of fifteen (15) Members, nominated by Parliament, and confirmed by the President.
2b. The Members of Parliament shall retain the office for two years and are not subject to term limits. Only a quarter of all MPs shall be up for (re)election every two years, and the order in which they will be elected will be arranged alphabetically. For example, the MPs from the first two states (Augsburg and Bamberg) will be up for (re)election, but half of the MPs from Darmstadt will be spared from re-election to fill the 250 seats up for (re)election. However, their seats will be up in the next election. The cycle shall restart once the final batch of MPs are (re)elected.
2c. The legislative elections shall coincide with the election of the President every four years. The sessions of Parliament shall open on the tenth day of the eleventh month every two years, as mentioned. In regions where half of the MPs up for (re)election, the first 50 MPs, arranged in alphabetical order, will be up for (re)election. The next 50 will seek (re)election in the next election.[/b]
3. Parliament shall meet to make laws only upon the convocation by the President. Legislative meetings outside the session halls require presidential consent. Parliament may also hold a recess if necessary. The recess, however, may not reach over thirty (30) days.

5. All laws and resolutions passed by Parliament may be revoked with a veto by the President. Invalidating the veto is forbidden.
6a. Parliament reserves the exclusive right to try, impeach and convict a sitting president. A Member of Parliament may initiate or introduce articles of impeachment against the president, but these charges must receive the endorsement of at least one-fourth of all MPs, and must be reviewed by a special impeachment committee.
6b. If the president is convicted, he is automatically unseated from office, and is forbidden to seek re-installation to the presidency. High treason, corruption, culpable violation of the Constitution are the legal grounds for any impeachment cases initiated. Parliament may also establish another ground for the impeachment, if necessary.
7. The President reserves the exclusive right of forming ministries, appointing ministers, who shall serve at his pleasure, appointing and receiving ambassadors and diplomats, and exclusively signing decrees, proclamations, and executive actions.
