I want to know how the political system is organized, the responsibilities of Ambassadors/Local Representatives, how Representatives are elected/chosen, if there are any other important government officials worth noting, how many branches of government, is there a "presidential" type figure or are decisions made by the Ambassadors/Representatives, what international relationships have formed/are forming, what is the agenda and motive of each nation involved. I'm looking to make a politically oriented character, and I'm curious.

Edit: Right now I'm caught between Investigative Journalist, Wealthy Entrepreneur, Political Aide, Public Relations Agent/Manager, CEO of a local corporation, and oddly enough a (maybe downtrodden) Librarian.
