Caso City Constitution

The current Constitution of Caso City was written and amended by its current King and his Council of Advisors. This constitution is labeled as the constitution of the 6th Republic and gives more power to both the council and the citizens of Caso City in contrast to its former editions.

Its first edition outlined the kings power and lineage. The first king and all his heirs will remain kings until no heir remains. At which point a new king is elected. This king then creates the 2nd line of kings. All heirs of the 2nd king will be kings until no heir remains. This process will be continue indefinitely. New kings will be identified as follows: The son of the first king will be titled as the 1st born of the 1st line, the great-grandchild of the 2nd king will be titled as the 3rd born of the 2nd line. Each new king of his line will only be referred to as the 1st king of his appropriate line. At this time, Caso City is ruled by the 1st king of the 9th line.

The Constitution affirms Caso City as a free and independent nation, separate from all others and united under the one king. It identifies Caso City Council as a bicameral Parliament, with the King and the Council being a self-governing pair of executive branches. The King has absolute power but cannot rule absolutely; they cannot create or remove laws without the Council's consent and can be held accountable for any laws broken during their reign.

Only the most recent edition of the constitution had a way for the council to remove the king from power. It was introduced in response to the 8th Kings Line which lasted for half of the cities existence and the 4th king in the 8th line lived to be over 100 and was no longer cognisant of his own decisions. No heir existed upon his death, so the council had to vote for a new king. The 1st king of the 9th line, King Hedon.

It is not compulsory for a new king to make amendments to the constitution but this is often the case. Small amendments to the constitution do not require a rewriting of its entirety, and only large overhauls warrant the need for a change in name. Some notable amendments have been the change in definition of 'people' to include those who do not identify as human, a creation of the criminal court system that promises a free and impartial judgement for all citizens, and finally a citizens right to protest against the King.
