==Politics and Government== Kabo Geshaan is a presidential republic led by an elected president serving a five-year term, limited to one consecutive re-election. The president holds a legislative veto which can be overriden with a three-fifths majority, and is elected via a popular plurality vote. The Kabo Geshaanian legislature is the Legislative Assembly, which is bicameral with the House of People's Representatives exerting primary legislative power and the House of Elders serving a primarily advisory role. Federal elections in Kabo Geshaan are competitive and generally fair, yet often marred by electoral violence. The democratic nature of these elections is largely credited to a collaborative political culture with a high prevalence of bargaining between clan elites, as well as the integrity of the Independent National Electoral Commission, which has enjoyed substantial autonomy and is endowed with substantial power, including the ability to nullify and call reruns of election results. In order to prevent the mass political fragmentation upon clan lines which dominated politics prior to the HhB Democratic Revolution in 2002, the Geshaanian constitution permits only three political parties. Every ten years, alongside presidential elections, Kabo Geshaanians vote to select the three legal political parties for the coming decade. Currently, the three parties are the Union for Development Party (UDP), the Vikantya Democratic Party of Struggle (VDP-S), and the Nationalities Party (NP). Politics are largely based on ethnic and clan allegiances, with the Vikantya Democratic Party of Struggle seen particularly as a vehicle for the country's ethnic Daryan minority. The current president is Lazaro Kibiki, nephew of former president Roselyn Kibiki, of the UDP.
