Great Sovereignism

Great Sovereignism is a form of Monarcho-Republicanism in which the Diarchy of the Heavenly Sovereign heads the Head of State, charged with overseeing the functions of the state; promoting, analyzing and maintaining the well functioning civil and spiritual institutions such as a society, and the cultural community of the nation; and supervising the institutions that hold the nation-state, while the Cardinal Magistrate heads the Head of Government, charged with overseing the functions of government and preventing the nation's corruption and dysfunctionality as well as preventing the neglect of government and promoting the spiritual growth as the nation continues.

Executive
Mentioned as above, the Diarchy ensues that the Heavenly Sovereign and the Cardinal Magistrate are in equal footing and in equal power through a process of the so-called "common responsibility" - an advanced form of social contract designed to foster community and harmony between civil and social purposes of society, and that will not allow one person to dominate any (and wield superior) level of power. As per the doctrine of "common responsibilty", both sections of the Diarchy must always cooperate with each other, so that mutual aid between the parties leads to greater unity of interests.

Legislative
The Legislative branch of government is headed by the Supreme Lord Protector, the head of the Golden Council, in which they oversee the establishment of laws, heading the enforcement of laws in its territory, and establishing sovereignty in the government as well as ensuring the stability of the nation, the government and the community, and that the Golden Council, at all times, serves as a reminder of the principles of the divine rule. This branch also has the power branch has the power to approve or reject appointments to key positions in the government, such as judges and cabinet members. The Golden Council is staffed by 666 members. 6 will head the Court, including the Supreme Lord Protector and the Cardinal Magistrate; 60 will head the Administrative Regions of the nation; and 600, in the spirit of Corporatist Syndicalism, will be headed by the workers and intellectuals in thier respective expertises and fields.

Judiciary
In the sphere of the Judiciary, The Court (known as the Charitable Body) is made of the heads of the Judicial system of the nation, and the heads of the legal order of the nation's society, in which they oversee the functions of adjudication and interpretation of the rules, as well as the interpretation of the divine constitution. Their function is of the greatest importance in the so-called "common responsibility" - since it is in this court that the highest level of common interests of the nation is represented in the society, so that the "common responsibility" is represented and enforced, preventing the rise of individual interests and the corruption of power. The court of the nation has a special role - that is, to represent, oversee and represent the people of the nation to the sovereign, and to supervise the executive and legislative branches, the Diarchy of the Heavenly Sovereign and the Cardinal Magistrate - as well as the judiciary and the legal order of the nation's society, so that the people can live in the best condition.

Religion and Culture
The state religion is Cao Dai, a religion that originated in French Indochina (now Vietnam). Missionaries, unlike in all religions, are encourage to not just partake in charity, but also to participate in the public works of the Divine Government. The society is encourages to be a part of the Divine Government, which oversees all aspects of life, and to be united with each other in serving the nation-state. However, it also encourages to avoid being caught up in individualism. The pillars of culture - Art, Music and Literature - are given high priority; with an emphasis on the cultivation of music and dance as a part of the Divine Government.

Welfarism
A Welfare State, this form of government encourages the people to meet thier basic needs and services by providing social and legal services for the common good of the people, and ensure that there will be no economic classes and gaps in a society, leading to the abolishment of the rich class and the poor class.

The civil society of the nation takes the form of a voluntary association for social welfare - with a focus on the care and health of its members, where they are protected from all sorts of economic and social abuses and unfair treatments. The members of the Civil Society are organized into "Civil Societies" - similar to that of the Voluntary Association, and are given equal rights and obligations. However, unlike the Voluntary Association, where members can join or not, or leave anytime, as long as the Society is in good standing, membership to the Civil Society is lifelong, as it is based on principles of membership, where only members are "associates".

Equal Rights and Observations
The Divine Government guarantees equal rights and obligations of citizenship, with the Diarchy being the head of all citizens in the Civil Society, and all citizens are given equal standing, equal responsibility and equal obligations, even if their family histories do not coincide in family structure, or their status as members of the society do not.

Social Justice
The principles of Great Soverignism provide a fair deal to all parties, with all citizens being guaranteed an equal responsibility and obligation, and all citizens have the right to enjoy the benefits, so that no one is excluded from the society; and it also guarantees an equal access to the economic and spiritual forces of the nation. It also believes in the equality of Men and Women, so long as they have the sane capability to rule the nation.

Conservatism
Society is conservative in all forms of life; but unlike tradtional conservatism, change is encouraged, to the point that two adages are applicable in this governemnt: "technology is our tradtion" and "progression is tradtion". This means that the Divine Government will always work to enhance and improve the quality of life in society, to create a better and more harmonious society, and to prevent social problems from arising or existing, while at the same time, the government and society will always strive to be more advanced, so that all societies that are capable of progress will become more progressive and advanced, and so, to have the best quality of life possible; as well as preserving good tradtions that helps humanity while reforming other tradtions that might be detrimental to society. Traditional Values and Ideas are preserved because they believe that a society defines itself and expresses its values through these means, and that the values and ideas should not be changed unless they are corrupt or they prevent from developing a more harmonious society. Moreover, it adopted a more neoconservative position as well (replacing tradtional forms of conservatism in the process), as well as the nation of the Diarchy will embrace the spirit of self-sacrifice, so that the nation can be strong and proud.
