Template:United States institutions

    Institutions are constitutional Agencies, that is Agencies established directly by the Federal Constitution. These Agencies are the United States Congress and its components, the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives; the Office of Governor-General; the United States Supreme Court of Appeal; and the United States Federal Council. Each of these Institutions fall within four branches, or “[constitutional] Departments” of the Federal Government: The Federal Council (including its dependent Authorities) fall within the Intergovernmental Department; the United States Congress (including the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives) are contained within the Legislative Department; the Governor-General and Cabinet agencies are housed in the Executive Department; and the Supreme Court of Appeal and other Federal-level Courts come within the Judicial Department. The Governor-General is the Head of the Federal Executive, and while the the Federal Council is constitutionally the collective Head of State of the Union, the Governor-General, as the personal representative of the Federal Council, carries out, in their name and by their Authority, the responsibilities and duties of the Federal Council as Head of State.
