The Bancroft Chancellery is a group of offices established by Lord Chancellor Jared I during his tenure, itself a continuation of the New Model style of Government used by Dietrich I. The Chancellory serves as the decision-making apparatus for the Regalian State, enacting laws and regulations to the Regalian citizenry. The Cabinet itself is made up of a mix of Advisors (In Proto-Regalian, Kanzlerrat) and Ministers (In Proto-Regalian, Reichsrat). All Reichsrat Ministerial positions are applied for directly at the Lord Chancellor. This can be done by sending a letter to the Chancellery ((by forum PM'ing LumosJared)) and "writing to impress" for the position. All government positions are beholden to the Lord Chancellor, and Ministers can be removed at any time, for any reason. Every office (except the Kanzlerrat) may appoint their own unofficially registered assistants, clerks and stewards, but these will not be officially recorded or given official power. Ministers may be given a stylized title, such as the Finance Minister being known as the Treasury Secretary.
