Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 310 Establishing the System and Founding the Nation

A month later.

After a month of continuous reflection and discussion.

Guan Shaoqing finally determined the name of the country and its system of government after its founding.

The country was named the Republic of Sinchu.

The national system leans towards a constitutional monarchy, with the head of state as the supreme leader of the Republic of Singapore, who governs the Supreme Council. The Supreme Council is the highest authority of the Republic of Singapore, composed of the head of state and a group of members, and is responsible for discussing and formulating major national decisions and policies.

Below the Supreme Council are three top-level power institutions: the Cabinet, the Grand Council, and the Supreme Court.

The cabinet, headed by the prime minister and assisted by a number of cabinet ministers, is responsible for the country's daily political development and other affairs. Except for major decisions that require a decision by the Supreme Council, it has all autonomy.

The Grand Council, headed by the Marshal of the State and assisted by numerous Generals of the Kingdom, is responsible for the development and combat of the nation's military in peacetime. Except for major decisions that require approval from the Supreme Council, it also possesses full autonomy.

The Supreme Court, headed by the Chief Justice and assisted by numerous other justices, is responsible for the daily drafting, amendment, and oversight of national laws.

In this way, the political, military, and judicial powers were separated and became independent of each other, forming a situation of separation of powers.

The daily life and development of the country are also the responsibility of the Cabinet, the Grand Council, and the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Council is only responsible for making major national decisions and policies, and does not concern itself with other daily development matters.

In addition, the king also serves as the national marshal.

This was a decision made by Guan Shaoqing after careful consideration. As the ruler of the new country that was about to be established, he could delegate power, including political and judicial powers, but he had to keep military power in his own hands. As long as he could firmly grasp military power, he would not have to worry about his subordinates rebelling.

This means that by controlling the highest parliament, one can grasp the country's major policies and decisions.

Controlling the Military Affairs Office ensures that the military remains in one's own hands.

No one objected to Guan Shaoqing's decision.

After all, Guan Shaoqing's prestige was undeniable, and what he wanted was merely the Supreme Council and military power; he had already relinquished political and judicial authority.

After that, the country's name and system were determined.

The next step is to divide administrative regions and allocate and select officials.

This matter was discussed for more than half a month.

The final result was obtained.

Star Island City will be renamed Star Capital as the capital of the Republic of Star Continent, and the entire Star Island will be incorporated into the administrative area of ​​Star Capital.

The Malay Peninsula is administratively divided into one special administrative region and nine administrative states. Kuala Lumpur is the special administrative region, and each of the other nine states has a governor as its highest administrative official. Below the state level are districts, towns, communes, and villages.
Thus, the administrative division of the entire Republic of Sinchu consists of the capital city of Sinchu, the special administrative region of Kuala Lumpur, and nine administrative states.

The Republic of Singapore has a fairly large land area, with a land area of ​​approximately 24 square kilometers, roughly equivalent to the area of ​​a province in China. If the surrounding sea area is included, the land area could easily double or triple.

The country's name, system, capital, and administrative regions are all clearly defined.

The next step is the appointment and selection of officials.

In Guan Shaoqing's view, this was the most troublesome matter, because the current appointment and selection of officials was basically just about distributing the spoils to their followers.

But how do we divide the cake?

This is absolutely an important matter. First of all, we must not let his subordinates lose heart, otherwise who will be willing to follow him in the future? Secondly, we must ensure that the distribution of resources is fair and beneficial to the country.

This process took a considerable amount of time, involving extensive consideration and discussions with various parties.

Guan Shaoqing finally made a decision regarding the appointment of officials.

First, regarding the ruler, Guan Shaoqing decided to temporarily appoint his elderly father, Guan Zongtang, as the ruler. After all, he was his father, and given his personality, even if he were to take the throne, he would definitely hand over the power to Guan Shaoqing. Therefore, it would be good for his father to sit on the throne and enjoy the glory for a few years.

Guan Shaoqing himself said that for the time being, he would just serve as a marshal and take charge of the Grand Council and the military.

Pai Hsiung-chi was appointed as the Prime Minister.

Lu Wenyuan was appointed as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

Ren Fa was appointed Minister of Commerce. Ren Wu was appointed Minister of Finance.

Su was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Guan Wen was awarded a medal and promoted to general.

Guan Shaoqing was awarded a medal and promoted to general.

Wu Chenglong was awarded a medal and promoted to general.

All of Guan Shaoqing's high-ranking personnel were appointed and promoted.

In addition, Guan Shaoqing did not forget his father's old subordinates and appointed them all.

This appointment was made.

The high-level structure of the entire Republic of Singapore has been completely established. The next step is the structure of the middle and lower-level officials, but Guan Shaoqing doesn't need to worry about that. The appointed Prime Minister Bai Xiongqi will take care of that.

At the same time, preparations for the official founding ceremony must begin.

Two more months have passed in the blink of an eye.

More than two months later.

Time has entered a new year.

January 1st.

this day.

The area in front of the central government building in Xingdu was packed with people.

Today is the day the Republic of New Continent is officially established, and countless domestic and foreign forces and media personnel have flocked to Xingdu.

The nation's leader, Guan Zongtang, dressed in formal attire, slowly walked onto the platform accompanied by Guan Shaoqing and other high-ranking officials of the Republic of Singapore, and then loudly proclaimed the founding document of the Republic of Singapore.

"I now declare, in my capacity as the sovereign of the Republic of Singapore, that the Republic of Singapore is officially established!"

"Clap clap-"

Finally, with Guan Zongtang's final, declarative shout, and witnessed by media outlets from around the world, the Republic of Sin Chew was officially established.

And with the conclusion of the founding ceremony of the Republic of Sinchu.

The Republic of Sinchu was officially established.

The news spread like wildfire around the world.

Many countries do not recognize the establishment of the Republic of Singapore, especially the United Kingdom, Russia, France, and other countries, which have directly declared that they do not recognize the existence of the Republic of Singapore.

However, some countries have also recognized the existence of the Republic of Xinzhou. For example, the Western allies, such as Germany and Italy, which are currently engaged in heated battles with the Allied powers such as Great Britain, Russia, and France, have publicly declared their recognition of the Republic of Xinzhou.

In response, the Republic of Singapore has temporarily adopted a pro-Allied policy.

Since the Republic of Singapore has just been established, it does need international recognition if it wants to truly gain a foothold in the world.

At the same time, with the formal establishment of the country.

Under Guan Shaoqing's command, the Republic of Singapore also developed rapidly with the introduction of a series of policies.

In addition, Guan Shaoqing also began recruiting and expanding his army again.

Now that the country has been formally established, the military strength naturally needs to be improved to cope with all international challenges.

This time, Guan Shaoqing plans to expand the army to 10 and the navy to 20, because given the environment around Sing Tao and the Malay Peninsula, the navy will inevitably be the first to be hit if a major war breaks out.

In fact, besides expanding the army and navy.

Guan Shaoqing now wants to establish an air force, but unfortunately he doesn't have the capability yet. He doesn't even have a single fighter jet, so even if he wanted to, he couldn't. Guan Shaoqing can only plan this slowly while waiting for good news from the Academy of Sciences.
