CSBL

The Khan
The Khan is the leader of the clans and the leader of the military force of the Confederate States. The Khan is the most powerful military leader, who was able to take out his competition and subdue the others who would wish to take the throne from him.

The Khan's duties are negligent, since the Church has control over all actual legal duties, and is instead the arm of the government that is meant to dole out punishments that are given from the church.

The Cardinal
The leader of the Church, the Cardinal is ironically the most powerful figure in the CSBL, as he is the one who interprets and executes Biblical law. Biblical law is the entire legal system in the nation, and all grievances are brought to the church to settle... for a fee.

The Cardinal is also the personal religious advisor for the Khan, and the Khan has some influence over who his religious advisor is thus controlling who the Cardinal is. Often the Khan and the Cardinal make deals to work together, propping each other up in legitimacy, and make the country better for their political and religious mindsets.
