NUMIDIA TODAY

First of all, I should explain that nowadays, there is no Numidian Kingdom. Numidia is not recognized by UN and it is an erstwhile nation. In fact, Numidia does not exist since 8th century. However, the persued proposal is to understand North African Kingdom of Numida as a micronation.

Before continuing, it is essential to elucidate that a micronation - according to the proposal of this website - is an essay or, perhaps, an experience which seeks to trace a hypothetical analysis of how it would be the history and culture of a small community of people, under an ancient monarchical rule - in the case of Kingdom of Numidia - at the current time. The great challenge is exactly the combination of the remote past with the present time, indeed.

�Referring to Kingdom of Numidia as a micronation, starting from now, I introduce myself as King Juba IV. Her Majesty Sophonisba - The Gorgeous Queen - evidently is my wife. We have two children: Prince Iampsas and Princess Anno.

Numidian Political Status: Independent constitutional monarchy established February 4, 2001.

Capital: Lambaesis. Major Urban cities: Cirta; Lambaesis; Thamugadi.

Constitution and Government: Numidia's present constitution, promulgated in 2001, provides for the sharing of authority between the king and a bicameral Micronational Assembly. Executive power is vested in the king, who is also supreme commander of the Numidian Army. He appoints the prime minister and cabinet, orders general election; convenes, adjourns, and dissolves the Assembly; and approves and promulgates laws. The Assembly, in joint session, can override his veto of legislation and must also approve all treaties. Local government administration is based on Lambaesis. On February 6, 2001, the government announced that the Micronational Consultative Council had been established to permit citizens to share responsibility in defining Numidian policy, although it was emphasized that the new body was not intended to replace the House of Representatives.

Political Parties: Conditions in Numidia have not been favorable to the emergence of strong political parties due to the fact that Numidia is a young micronation. Hence, there is currently one party only, which is Numidia People's Party.
