First factbook and work in progress. Alert me to anything that would help develop my nation that I overlooked or something I could flesh out more. Criticisms are appreciated
The Celestial Kingdom operates much like it's name suggests. Altogether it is a Feudal Kingdom headed by the celestial High King who dictates and directs through various orders and edicts to the populace. His rule is absolute and control is complete. However, he doesn't dictate daily life, the burden of directing every citizen of the empire would be a complete and total burden that would simply press the system into an immovable mass of bureaucracy. He forms the majority of the edicts with minor assistance from the Department of Justice and governs the capitol planet with a court of advisers who also fulfill their roles on the planet while directing their subsequent departments. Events that are capable of engulfing the entire kingdom are relayed to him as they warrant his interest. Across the Celestial Kingdom are various governors from the Sector, System and planetary level who serve as the King's avatars in their various realms. They follow his orders and enforce his will for him.
The Sector Level is hand-picked by the King when the previous governor dies. The Sector governor chooses his own system governors who then pick their planetary. Each enforce grand laws from the king while also developing their own more specific and environment tailored laws and taxes. However, as per the Monarchy, titles of nobility are given as well as plots of land. These individuals have almost complete autonomy over their individual properties as long as they pay their tithes and taxes. The various lords are allowed to develop and change their land as they see fit, leaving it as a lush forest or building sprawling factories. More than likely the more profitable avenue will be chosen.
For this level autonomy the the Lords are expected to give a mandatory tithe of .1% population to the planetary defense forces. These forces serve as the peacekeeping and policing force while also serving as an emergency response team. Added to this Lords are expected to serve at least fifteen years of service in the military whether its in the marines, navy or army. These lords can also be selected for governor or department roles as per their station of course.

Department of the Kingdom
The Department of the Kingdom has the most work to accomplish in terms of understanding and directing the flow and stability of civilian assets. They handle disputes and settlements between nobles as well as approving and dealing with things such as construction permits and land grants. The top of the Department deals with the acquisition, labeling and parceling out of newly acquired territory while giving light checks on his subordinates and appointing individuals to their stations. Sector heads do much the same as well, as well as system heads dealing directly with large scales projects. The only ones who get directly into the mess of parceling out land and dealing with various issues are the planetary heads. They do this with a cabinet of secretaries and lawyers to investigate and certify grants.

Department of War
The Department of war directly handles it's namesake in a very straightforward fashion. The purpose of the is to oversee the tithe of manpower or the planetary PDFs as well as doing inspections on Baron, (Or other nobility) sponsored soldier regiments. They also set the standard of training for which both sponsored regiments and PDF forces are to held accountable. During Wartime the Department serves as a liaison between the military and civilian assets such as propaganda delivery, evacuation of civilians and the allotment of wartime resources. Dignitaries from the DoW drill soldiers as well, ensuring that they handle themselves accordingly for hostile nation and friendly civilian populaces. Evacuations and theater movements are also conducted by the system level department. As such the Department is almost completely staffed with military personnel of noble birth or gain as well as upper to fleet officer ranks.

Department of Diplomacy
The Department of Diplomacy is the front and acceptance of foreign affairs, dipomats and even possible treaties. The employees of the DoD attend delegations and commit opening discussions as well as trade meetings with outsider empires. They cannot sign or ratify a treaty however, that final step needed by the King's seal and signature, but they handle the tasks leading up to that monumental occasion. The DoD also handles propaganda leaked to outside the Kingdom creating false stories or modifying events to prevent the Kingdom from being cast in a weak or negative light especially during wartime. They also handle what the general populace sees of outsiders and if needed creates propaganda to dehumanize and damage the foe.

Department of Justice
The Department of Justice handles criminal activities throughout the empire and are in direct control of all law enforcement agencies, directing and controlling officer allocation and criminal detainment. The Department is different than most others as they have three representatives at each level than just a single individual. This is in part due to their duty of preside over courts and rule over individuals accused of a crime. A majority vote finds the defendant guilty or innocent. A Sector level court presides over crimes that endanger the sector or various high-level cases that have been appealed again and again up to that level. The court system itself is inquisitorial in nature, the prosecution seeking out evidence that places the accused at the time and place of the crime as well as having perpetrated it themselves. The defendant though is not entirely defenseless as he can appeal to a higher court or ask for a retrial on certain proven conditions such as if the prosecution fabricated evidence or made simply too many conjectures.

Department of Education
The Department of Education follows it's namesake in an obvious pattern. The Department ensures that individual planetary lords have some sort of scholastic program to teach children of any class to at least a kingdom level standard. This composes of a Introductory program around age 5-6, an elementary school, a middle school and a final occupational school. The last school takes up the last four years of a child's education specializing in the chosen field of the individual. The Department in turns ensures each of these programs are fully up to standards and insures the continuity of each school.

Department of Labor
The Department of Labor or DoL (Which has become a slang term for the manpower tithe owed by each Lord) handles the placement of manpower throughout the Kingdom ensuring each lord has the necessary population to run his developments while also ensuring the proper placement of workers. The Department also deals with the man tithe owed by each lord for the PDF and military as well as that for the various labor complexes of the realm. Inspections are also carried out by this department ensuring the job sites are up to par and do not present a more than unnecessary risk to the workers.

Department of Honor
The Department of Honor, or as it is sometimes comically referred to as DoH!, serves as a higher court for the entirety of the Kingdom tailoring especially to the nobility. However, the court is still accessible by peasantry provided they have a reasonable argument. The Department is meant to handle the scandals of the Nobility in a criminal court and ensure that they are acting as they ought by modern standards. The DoH also handles the pedigree records of the noble families, awarding titles of nobility to worthy individuals, awards of honor and bravery to soldiers and civilians as well as taking care of the various duels and vendettas of the families.

The Inquisitorial Department
The Inquisition, as it is otherwise known as, is the group most often handed the task of dealing with inner threats. They deal with the traitors, terrorists and the spies, located within the Kingdom's borders. Its agents are relentless and ruthless in their dealings, only pushing forward to accomplish their task until either it, or they, are dead.
The Watchers
The Watchers is a form of intelligence agency that deals with the outer public. They serve as the Kingdom's CIA, collecting information on foreign threats and governments. They typically deal with outer radical heretics and those willing to do harm to the Kingdom. They work quietly and quickly but are not afraid to destabilize a government.
The Nothing
Or the Know-nothing, is the most shadowy and hidden section of the government. They deal with only the largest threats, those that could potentially wipe out entire sectors or even foreign empires. They have an unlimited budget and have the utmost power when dealing with any other legal system. They could, if they needed to, commandeer entire Corps, Fleets and even the agents of the other departments.
