	In Śácamþań society, monarchy is considered a repulsive, barbarian institution, opposed by a long history of merchant councils and oligarchies. The only reason it is tolerated in [[Maraśa]] is due to it being the natural order of things for gods to rule over mortals; a very literal interpretation of divine right to rule. For this role, the word {{Script\|script=thl\|t=mAnItu}} ''[[Tunema]]'' exists, and assigning it to any mortal is considered sacrilege. When a mortal is sole ruler over other mortals, they are instead an {{Script\|script=thl\|t=tpii}} ''Ipit'' or ‘tyrant’, a form of government unacceptable to the Śácamþań.

The government of [[Maraśa]] is ''de jure'' a theocracy, where the leader is a divine being (Śácamþaśá: {{Script|script=thl|t=mAnItu}} ''[[Tunema]]''), who is infallible, all powerful, immortal and without question, capable of communicating with [[Śácamþań Religion|the gods]] directly. Given that the ''[[Tunema]]'' [[Wetáŋa]] is considered immortal, no form of succession exists, nor is there any fallback in case of temporary unavailability or retirement.

''De facto'', [[Maraśa]] is an absolute monarchy, with every decision in the state being taken by the ''Tunema''. There are no civilian institutions to speak of, no aristocracy and no constitution.
