Government and politics
The Star Kingdom was officially a constitutional monarchy, led by the King of the Tionese and the Tionese Parliament. The bicameral body consisted of a Senate, the upper house consisting of aristocrats that wielded most of the power, and the Assembly, the lower house of elected representatives whose influence was limited. The Argai Constitution, adopted by the Argai Parliament in 2004 BBY, had left the King extensive powers that allowed him to override the elected officials (in order to win over the House of Tion and the King of Cron at the time).
