Tsiba has a bicameral legislature known as the Duchavoputsy. It is composed of the House of the Ministers of Cities (commonly referred to as the City Ministers) and the Representative Legislature. The Representative Legislature is able to pass legislation by a majority vote; however, the City Ministers may stop the passage of legislation by a majority, which can then be overruled by a two-thirds majority vote in the Representative Legislature. The City Ministers are the only body allowed to authorize international use of the military. Any legislation passed by the City Ministers can only be overridden by the Prime Minister’s veto, which, on legislation from the City Ministers, can not be overruled.

Each region is governed from it’s capital, which must carry out the national policy but which is also allowed to create local legislation to deal with specific issues of the region. Nonetheless, both the Ministers of Cities and the Representative Legislature have the power to nullify regional laws by a simple majority vote.

The Representative Legislature is elected nationwide every five years through party-list proportional representation. Each region contributes a hundred representatives to the legislature. The City Ministers are elected through direct election in each city every five years. Any regional capital or city of over 150,000 residents gets a single representative for each 500,000 residents, rounded up. There are currently 52 City Ministers.

The Prime Minister of Tsiba carries executive power. They are able to exercise both a complete and an item veto, which can only be overruled by a three-fourths vote in both houses. They control military operations within the state and have the power to set foreign policy for Tsiba. The Ja-Prime Minister takes over the roles of the Prime Minister if they are killed or otherwise incapacitated. The Ja-Prime Minister can also break ties among the City Ministers and in the Representative Legislature, and is unofficially in charge of determining the legislative agenda for each year and ensuring that legislation is passed.

While Tsiba has allowed multiple political parties since 1993, the dominant party is the Shooda-Tsiba, Tsiba’s socialist party. 

The Prime Minister is the leader of the party with a majority in the Representative Legislature and City Ministers combined. They are elected from within the dominant party and serve until their death, resignation, or the loss of their party’s majority. The Ja-Prime Minister is appointed by the Prime Minister and then either approved or denied by their party.

The judicial system, known as the Upitsu-matoo, is administered by the regional governors and legislatures. Judges usually serve ten year terms, although this can vary between regions. The highest court of Tsiba, the Uritsu-matoo-na'ivoo, is a group of eleven judges appointed by the Duchavoputsy. Judges must be approved by a margin of eighty percent in the Representative House and seventy-five percent among the City Ministers. The Upitsu-matoo-na’ivoo is solely dedicated to judging the legality of national legislation and holding trials for Tsiba’s politicians. Judges are appointed for life on the Upitsu-matoo-na’ivoo.
