Description
The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation (German: Heiliges Römisches Reich Deutscher Nation, Latin: Sacrum Imperium Romanum Nationis Germanicæ) was a Germanic nation located in Central Europe. Even though it was called the Holy Roman Empire, the empire itself had no claims whatsoever on the city of Rome.
Political Structure
The Holy Roman Empire had a Kaiser (Emperor) as the ruling head of state, there was also a Kanzler (Chancellor) which supervises the nation and help make some important decisions as the empire was a constitutional monarchy. The HRE in EMC did not use the Elective Monarchy structure as the first Kaiser of HRE believes it was too risky to do so. (instead, it was a mix of Constitutional Monarchy and Elective Monarchy). But Prince-Electors still exist, their role was to help collect imperial tax and vote on decisions in the Reichstag (Imperial Diet). (note: Imperial Elections still exist however, in this case to appoint temporary rulers for various reasons)
There are 7 Prince-Electors within the Holy Roman Empire, each coming from a different circle, or province. The circles of the Holy Roman Empire includes: The Brandenburg Circle, The Bavarian Circle, The Austrian Circle, The Westphalian Circle, The Lower Saxon Circle, The East Prussian Circle, The Schlesien Circle, The Wurttemberg Circle, and the Pommern Circle. Each circle had their own hierarchy of Princes, Barons, Dukes, so on, all of them led by the Prince-Elector of the respective circle. A local noble can ignore the Prince-Elector if and only if they have been bestowed Imperial Immediacy by the Kaiser of the Holy Roman Empire, this will make the person responsible only to the Kaiser (only takes orders from him). Each Prince-Elector are required to collect taxes from their citizens and pay parts of it to the Kaiser and the Central Government. Taxes are collected weekly, if a circle/province did not pay taxes then its votes will be counted as zero in the Reichstag for the duration of that week until they pay their taxes. The Kaiser had the authority to appoint and decommission Prince-Electors.
There are 2 supreme courts in the HRE, the Imperial Chamber Court (Reichskammergericht) and the Aulic Council (Reichshofrat).
