The people of the empire of Qantor are ruled by a beauracracy with a ceremonial Emperor. The beauracracy is split in the following bodies; the Imperial Trade Consortium, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Interiors.

The Emperor of Qantor has no real power. At one time in the distant past, Qantor was ruled entirely by the Imperial palace. However, the people of the Empire slowly overturned that, but instead of overthrowing their ruler, they left it in a cermeonial and respected position. The Emperor can inspire and turn hearts ot he people, but the true power no longer resides with him/her.
