There are no elections in the Islamic State of Azrabizhan, thus there is no inaguration.

Elections for the national Parliament are only held when either the King calls for one, Parliament passes a "no confidence" vote, or 5 years has passed since the previous election. Members are seated the week following an election. There are no local elections as positions of authority at the Province, County and Municipal levels are filled either by the Civil Service or the Nobility.

Presidential elections are held once every fourth year unless the president is stricken out of office due to impeachment, death assassination etc. Similarly the inauguration is the week following the final election which falls upon January 1st (With one noted historical exception), should there be no assassination. In which case the new president is sworn into office the moment it becomes known.

Federal Council elections are held once every year on June 1st. The inauguration of all senators happens two weeks after all votes are finalized and counted (Generally taking one to three weeks) to begin regular voting and legislative processes.

Municipal elections are under just that, municipal jurisdiction.

It's the same in Fatatatutti, except that the king has had little to say since he was eaten. There is no inauguration. The day after the election, it's business as usual.

General Elections are held whenever there is a sucessful confidence vote or when the government calls for one. A general election must be held no less than five years from the sitting of the current parliament. The new government sits immediately.

election day is always on the vernal equinox, and inaugurations take place on the first of the month immediately fallowing the vote having been successfully verified.

local elections are held yearly, as are referenda at all levels except local, which in most places are held monthly.
regional and national elections are held once every five years, and planetary once every nine.

Unfortunately, the Nationalist Imperium of Augarundus lasted only 7 years (2008-2015) before a communist coup destroyed the right-wing federal republic. Otto Vitali, the young 25-year old senator who led the Catholic-Capitalist populist revolution to destroy the pre-2008 Communist Imperial Reich was elected by a landslide in the first national elections (93%). Elections were schedualed to occur every 10 years (however, since the Republic was formed in 2008, Vitali would receive an extra 2 years in office, meaning the next elections would occur in 2020). However, in 2015 a coup led by Father Andrew Koredev (a Catholic priest who killed High General Klaus Ivanov, the other conspirator who assassinated Otto Vitali) led to the Nationalist Imperium's downfall. Koredev, having publicly murdered a Catholic archbiship, renounced God on public television and became the apostate-dictator of Augarundus, reinstating a totalitarian communist regime. Thus, only one election could be held in Augarundus.

Inauguration takes place 7 days after the election (which is held on May 18th, every 10 years) and is a glorious event. Augarundus' populace is very intelligent and very politically educated (which makes a communist regime quite a problem, as they must oppress free thought), as well as highly conservative. Regardless of how one voted in the election, respect for the government is paramount to Augarian culture, and, on Inauguration Day (May 25) schools are canceled and public festivities are held into the night (a sort of Carnival). Firecrackers and military parades are common, and the bleak, gray Augarundus becomes colorful for a day.

Typically elections are held 20 days after the death/resignation/impeachment of an Emperor. During those 20 days, the Interior Minister assumes the title of Interim Emperor, unless prior direction as to how to handle those 20 days was given by the former Emperor.

Kalesic elections are on Sunday of the first week of the 3rd, 6th, 9th and/or 12th month. 2 weeks later (to give time for recounts), the elected lentine'he'ny `ascend' into the parliament (or rather the naiken'het lentine tani).

Election day for the monarch is the Tuesday following the ruling monarch's death or abdication. The inauguration is the week after.

Normal elections for parliament are the first Monday in January, every two years. Swearing in of new parliament members takes place the day after.

Wednesday is National Referendum Day, which is when the people vote for the laws parliament passes.

Note: this may be slightly incorrect since I'm writing this at school with no access to the notes I have at home.

"Electoral season" officially begins on 1 January, and election campaigns last four weeks. The election takes place on 15 January, and the inauguration is on 15 February.

Elections can be called for at any time (within five years from last election). There is no official inauguration: the elected Prime Minister goes to the Seigneur to express its wish to form the government and off they go!

Senators are elected every six years. They aren't inaugarated. The Emperor is born into the position and does have a coronation.
