Article I - The Law
Section 1 - The Source of Law
Designation of legislature is hereby vested in the Grand Parliament who, during their sessions, can make laws, debate laws and if they are passed by a majority vote, forward the proposed change to the Regent for approval and announcement to the Populace. The Regent has sole and exclusive power to overrule any new laws or changes to existing law passed by the Grand Parliament.

In the event of the absence of the Regent, his temporary incapacity, death, resignation, removal or failure to exercise and perform the powers and functions of his office, or at any time that the office of the Regent may be vacant, the powers and functions conferred upon the Regent by this Code of Laws shall be exercised and performed by the Court of Advisors until such time that a new Regent takes office.
