The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty - it regards itself as theoretically democratic. The constitution of the Empire is an evolutionary and organic entity, with no fixed composition point but is composed of the religious laws passed down (as they see it) from God, common law dating from time immemorial and the sum product of every motion and law passed by the senate, or back under the old empire by the Emperor. The three areas of government - executive, legislative and judicial are bound into the singular body of the Senate - a group of 501 Patricians elected by Patricians on a constituency basis with a proportional number coming from the military, church and other professions. The senate wields complete sovereignty - it is limited by nothing other than the word of God and can change any law or enter any part of public life. As such the closest thing to a 'Bill of Rights' | The Elysian Celestial Empire is an theological aristocratic republic, based around an elected senate with supreme sovereignty - it regards itself as theoretically democratic.

In Elysian society there is a partition between the Plebeians and Patricians - the Plebeians get one standard of jobs, health service, education and prospects, while the Patricians get another. Despite this almost all Plebeians are content with their position - not only are they born to it, their faith and honour system tells them that it is a sin to be envious and an honour to serve - they have a deep understanding of different roles in society. This is not to say their is a glass ceiling - it is possible for a Plebeian to become a Patrician through exceptional hard work, marked by the transfer from a Plebeian to a Patrician body. | In Elysian society there is a partition between the Plebeians and Patricians - the Plebeians get one standard of jobs, health service, education and prospects, while the Patricians get another.
