 Politics of Caprera  

Caprera's government takes place in the framework of a parliamentary democracy. The government is led by the President. The President is directly elected by the people every few years. Power is vested in both the government and parliament. Every few years members of parliament are elected to represent the citizens of Caprera, with a multi-party system.

Cabinets are formed through government coalitions. Presidents are directly elected by the people. Parties that govern alone are rare but do happen, usually in landslide victories.

Certain gangs have had an influence on Caprera's government for the better part of it's history. Because of this, the lines between where the government ends and the gangs begin is blurry. Gang wars and alliances have sprung up in order to render their authority on Caprera, and law enforcement response has been futile in their efforts to stop gang activity.
