Government of Lower Columbia

His Majesty's Government of Lower Columbia, commonly referred to as the Federal Government or Royal Government, is the central government of the Federal Kingdom of Lower Columbia. It is supreme over the individual governments of the 16 states that comprise the kingdom, while still allowing those states to have some degree of autonomy.

The government is led by the King of Lower Columbia, who selects the two Lords of Parliament and, with their advice, appoints the ministers who make up his Cabinet. All Cabinet ministers are life appointees, but remain accountable to both the King and Parliament. Executive authority is vested in the King under the Constitution, although much of that authority is delegated to the Cabinet ministers and their departmental subordinates.
