Country Wise Council

Members
The CoWCS comprises of 72 members, 6 from each province, 3 men and 3 women; the members are called Wise Representatives (WRs). They are chosen by the people in each province on the provincial elections and previous approval of the candidature by the Provincial Knowing Councils. Candidates can be independent or members of parties. The candidature is allowed for anyone who has more than 20 years and is a citizen of the Samarkainia.
High Representative
The highest position in the CoWCS has the High Representative (HR) (currently is Ojèsal Enállaa Tóenejask from the Samóiken province). For the position of the HR can candidate one of the council's members and only one from each province; maximum number of candidates is therefore 12 (either man or woman). The candidature is approved by the Country Knowing Council of Samarkainia (CoKCS) but the position holds the one who wins the country elections with the majority.
Departments
The CoWCS is divided into many departments, each one responsible for a different thing. There are, for example, Department of Healthcare (responsible for health, hospitals, medicines …), Department of Energy (responsible for energy, power plants …), Department of Environment (responsible for environment, nature-protecting parks …), Department of Economy (responsible for economy, exporting, importing …), Department of Transit (responsible for roads, highways, railways, public transport …), Department of Education (responsible for schools, universities, education …), Department of Agriculture (responsible for farming, farmers, agriculture …), Department of Science and Technology (responsible for scientific researching, new technologies, development …), Department of Defence (responsible for educating interested people how to handle weapons) and others. Each department comprises of a few people, the department representative who has the highest position in a department (approved by the CoKCS) and some advisers and civil servants. They create new laws (considering their department) and if the laws are confirmed by the department representative, then the law goes to the proceedings by the Wise Representatives who decide, whether the law will be passed or rejected.
National Representative
National Representative (NR) is actually not a part of CoWCS but is generally placed here. The NR has the highest position in the country, although not the most powerful. Its task is to represent the Country of Samarkainia in other countries and to give the final yes or no decision about any law which is previously passed by the WRs. The NR is currently Deléktaj Alaneíe Sévrette from the Téllessel province who was elected in 2007 and will hold this position for 5 years (till 2012). For the position of the NR can candidate anyone who has 20 years and is a citizen of Samarkainia. The candidate gives its application to the CoKCS and if approved, he or she can now candidate on country elections. The position is given to that candidate who gets the majority of votes.
Passing and changing laws
The task of passing new laws and changing the existing ones have the Wise Representatives. The motions for new laws and changes of the old ones are given to the WRs by the department representatives and Provincial Representatives. The WRs have sessions every two days where they discuss motions. The law is passed if the majority of the members votes in favour and is rejected if the majority votes against it. When a law is passed by the WRs it is not yet fully passed because it needs the approval of the National Representative. If the NR agrees with the law, then the law is fully passed, but if the NR does not agree, then the law is rejected. The NR has to explain why the law is rejected and then some changes can be made to get the law passed.
