Emperor Mina has explicitly stated that The Empire of Haitonology will closely follow the rules presented in the Articles of Federation, the very same articles that the previous regimes have created and followed.

1. Emperor, Dukes, and Governors

• The Emperor is the highest office in the land, to be elected from all current lords (or Dukes) when the last Emperor has died

• The Emperor has Veto power over all laws and regulations the federal congress passes

• While Governor is an elected title Lord is the only hereditary title in the empire

• Lords and Governors will work together in harmony, any either can veto an action taken by the other or any laws/ regulations passed by local congresses

• Governors will be voted on every 4 years without being voted in for more than two terms

• A federal citizen must be 16 years of age to vote for a new Emperor

2. Federal and Local Congresses

• The Federal Congress will be a collection of two houses, the House of Lords (made up of the ruling Lords and Governors of each estate) and the House of Representatives (1 rep per 50,000 citizens)

• For any motion to pass, it needs two thirds of each house to vote yes and the Emperor's approval

• Local congresses will be modeled after the federal congresses but will not have any control outside of their estate

• Both the federal and local congresses will hold elections every 4 years with congressmen not holding office for more than two terms

3. Succession and expansion

• Following a 2038 federal congress vote, succession has been made illegal to promote unity

• For a nation to join the Empire three criteria need to be met 1. The current regime needs to recognize the Emperor as rightful ruler of the nation 2. A waiting period of 3 years must be completed after recognizing the Emperor and 3. the population must agree with a majority in a referendum after the waiting period

4. War

• War is a federal problem, and will be dealt with by the federal military (see point 5)

• Any inter-Empirical wars are outlawed, and if one is to occur the federal military will defend the attacked

5. Federal Military

• The use of local military control will be removed

• The military will be organized with the Emperor being the head of it

Besides these clarifications, all other rules stated in the Articles of Federation stand.
