The Seal of Ministry of Interior. It has the double headed eagle because it is competence of Ministry to armonize the relationship between the three comonents of Empire: State, Church and Feuds.

The Ministry of Interior is the implementing body of the domestic politics in the Holy Empire of Jinavia, seen as security and crime prevention. It also deals with the regulation of religion allowed or tolerated in Jinavia and the relationship between Imperial State and Princely fedus.
The Ministry of Interior is a complex structure, articulated at the central level with 5 departments, and with peripheral Prefectures, Gendarmerie Provincial Commands and Public Rescue Service commands.
The Minister and the Deputy Ministers are the most political part. It is the policy line that drives the mission of the Ministry as a guarantee of political freedoms in the Empire.

Public Security duties[]

Guaranteeing public security and order is the main mission carried out by the Ministry of Interior through prevention and repression activities in a range of fields, including counterterrorism, transport security, fight against drug trafficking and sports event security.
Fight against organized crime and associations of mafia involves patrol and prevention activities, judicial police investigation, special programmes for both co-operative witnesses management and most wanted fugitives investigations leading to their capture. As far as national internal and external security is concerned, great importance is attached to intelligence activity required for maintaining public order, combating terrorism, fighting against high-tech crime and providing support to Imperial Security Department.
The National Observatory on Sports Events is an ad hoc body established with the aim of preventing and repressing acts of violence taking place during sports events.

Fight against illegal immigration[]

Fight against non-Colonial and non-Dominion immigration is a significant contribution to security of the Empire. It is carried out through activities involving coordination of border controls and management and strict control of foreign residing in the country.
Action to combat illegal immigration involves development and adoption of measures and initiatives targeting immigration dynamics. The Central Directorate for Immigration is set to develope strategies to counter immigration and dealing with any issue arising from the presence of foreign nationals on the national territory.
The Directorate is in charge of gathering and analysing information on measures taken to monitor, prevent and fight against immigration by sea and by land. Handling of immigrants leaving on the national territory is entrusted to the immigration centres falling within the responsibility of the Department for Religion and Immigration.

Asylum and refugees[]

Aliens who, being outside the country of former habitual residence, are unable to return owing to the well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of nationality or political opinion, can apply for asylum by submitting an application for the recognition of ‘refugee status’.
Acts of persecution are:

  • Acts that, on account of their nature or frequency, are serious to such an extent to be considered a serious violation of fundamental natural rights;
  • When various measures add up to a serious impact on the individual.

Examples of acts of persecution: acts of physic violence, judicial actions or criminal sanctions that are excessive, acts specifically aimed against minors.

Defending the Imperial Regime[]

In order to ensure the safety of Imperial regime, Jinavia has to be a sort of "open prison" for all those who oppose the Holy Jinavian Empire: the Ministry of Interior, the Gendarmerie, the court system and the Ministry of Justice, as well as several other government organization on occasional roles, co-operate in order to reach this goal, but the overall leading task is vested in the Ministry of Interior. However, under emergency conditions, all the opponents may be brought before military courts.
A number of laws are issued in order to regulate the repression and the political dialect, like the Law of Security of State, which regarded illegal propaganda or labour strikes as military rebellion, the Law for the Repression of the Masonry and Communism, and the Law for the Repression of Banditry and Terrorism. Furthermore, the Tribunal for the eradication of Freemasonry and Communism is established within the High Court of Justice.
The anti-system parties and trade unions are illegal, and their activists and leaders can be imprisoned or executed; the extrajudicial executions of members of the guerrillas and their supporters are routinely performed.

Freemasonry[]

Freemasonry and other similar secret associations are contrary to law. Any mason is deemed guilty of the crime of rebellion. Being a mason is automatically punishable by a minimum jail term of 12 years. Masons of the higher degrees are deemed guilty of ‘Aggravated Circumstances’, and usually face the death penalty: they are considered as willing members of the conspiracy against the Empire. According to the official Imperial Doctrine, the pacifistic virus begins by Freemasonry: is then transmitted to the masses of society by the evil influence.
The legislative instrument which regulates contrast to Freemasonry is the Law for the Repression of Freemasonry.

State of siege[]

The state of siege is a legislative mechanism that "Constitutio de Salute Rei Publicae" of 1948 framed in order to allow the transfer of police powers of civil authority to the military authorities, the establishment of military courts and the extension of police powers.
It can be implemented on part of the territory, after deliberation by the Council of Ministers and signed by the Emperor, when there is imminent danger of an armed insurrection or war. During the state of siege there is a transfer of authority from civilian to military authorities. The extension of the state of siege beyond 24 days is subject to the approval of the House of Nobles.

Declaration and approval[]

The state of siege may be declared in cases of imminent danger resulting from:

  • War;
  • An armed insurrection.

The state of siege is declared by a decree of the Emperor, upon proposal of the Prime Minister and consent of Council of Ministers. The decree designates the territory to which it applies and determines its duration: the extension of the state of siege beyond twenty-four days must be authorized by the House of Nobles.
The authorization must be the result of a vote on a specific text proposed by the government or on a government statement referring to the state of siege.
In a debate for the application of state of siege, each group has a talk time of one hour, after the intervention of the Government, unless otherwise decided by the President. A talk time of ten minutes is allocated to the member not belonging to any group that is made up in the first debate. Enrollment of speech are made by the presidents of groups, which indicate the President of the Chamber the order in which they want the speakers to be called and the duration of their interventions.

Effects of state of siege[]

The military authority overrides civil authority in the exercise of general police powers. Military courts become competent for crimes against the security of the State. The enjoyment of certain rights is suspended: the freedom of home, the press, assembly, movement.
The military authority has the right to declare a curfew, make searches day and night in the homes of citizens, move away the convicts but also suspicious individuals or those who simply do not have their homes in places subject to martial law, ordering the surrender of weapons and ammunition to carry out their research and their removal or prohibit publications and meetings which they consider likely to excite or maintain the disorder.

The Ministry of the Interior fulfils the sensitive task, mediating between the interests of different codes, each designed to rule different situations with the same needs. This activity virtually consists in granting legal status to Church bodies.

Non-Imperial religions[]

The Empire provides that religious denominations are equally free before the law and have the right to organize themselves according to their own by laws as long as they are not in contrast with Imperial laws. Their relation with the State is regulated by a legislation based on agreements with their representatives. The right to religious practice allows Jinavian citizens, foreign nationals and stateless people to disseminate and exercise one’s own faith, provided that rituals are not contrary to public morality or are not blasphemous.
For foreign religions with the exception of Roman Catholic and Orthodox Church, which are always in accordance to the Imperial Church, is applied the set of rules on admitted faiths. As to the confessions having entered into an ad hoc agreement with the Empire, the standard set of rules is replaced by the rules implementing these agreements.

Minorities[]

Given the presence in Jinavia of different minority groups having ethnic, religious or linguistic features which differ from the rest of the population, the Ministry of Interior is responsible for the protection of ‘old-established minorities’ who predominantly live in the eastern mountain border areas.
