Avtokrator of Videssos

Videssos is an absolute monarchy, like Byzantium, ruled by an Emperor. The Emperor is assisted by an influential bureaucracy, which is powerful enough to enforce its choice for the throne, even in the face of military opposition. The bureaucracy and military are traditionally rivals for power and influence.
