The nation of Alduria has teetered between several pro-monarchist period and several pro-republican periods throughout its history.

The government of Alduria is best described as a semi-presidential republic, with power divided between the legislature, the leader of the legislature, and the government.
The head of state of Alduria is known as the President of the General Labor Council (Canrillaise: Président de la Bourse Générale du Travail) and is elected by universal suffrage on a five-year basis.
