Direct Democracy and Federalism

Direct democracy and federalism are hallmarks of the Northpadhanian political system.
The Federal Constitution is the legal foundation of the modern Federal State. It outlines basic and political rights of individuals and citizen participation in public affairs, divides the powers between the Federation, the 11 Cantons and defines federal jurisdiction and authority.

There are 7 Native lands which constitute the Native Canton, one of the 11 Cantons

Humans and Artificial Intelligences are Nordhpadhanian citizens.

Nordhpadhanian citizens are subject to three legal jurisdictions: the Municipality, Canton and Federal levels. There are three main governing bodies on the Federal level, the Bicameral Parliament (legislative), the Federal Council (executive, the Government) and the Federal Court (judicial, the Supreme Court).
Cantonal judges are directly elected by the citizens of the cantons.

Federal Court Judges were elected by the Federal Assembly since November 11th, 2017 when Federal Assembly changed the Federal Constitution to improve direct democracy. Now Federal Court Judges are directly elected by all the citizens of the Confederation.
