Consejo Ministerial Supremo (Supreme Ministerial Council)
The premier advisory body to the Throne of Iberia.  (currently the de facto governing body)
     Prime Minister - Eduardo Canalejas
     Foreign Minister - Segismundo Dominguez

Junta del Ejercito (Board of the Army)
Charged with recruiting, feeding, training, organizing, equipping, and all of the other services the army requires.  Planning for military campaigns is conducted by the Board but only at the direction of the Consejo de Guerra (Council of War), which is only established during times of conflict. 

Junta de Marina de Guerra (Board of the Navy)
Similar to the Junta del Ejercito, but with a relationship that is more equal to that of the Consejo de Guerra, in that the Junta de Marina de Guerra does not simply follow the orders of the Consejo de Guerra but also has membership stature within that Council. 

Junta de las Ordenes Militares (Board of the Military Orders)
An ancient and traditional Board, overseeing the properties and activities of the religious military orders within the Empire.  The Orders themselves have long been toothless shells of their ancient selves, however, after several hundred years there is a new and growing interest in the history and traditions of these groups.  There are some members of the Board who wish to see the influence and wealth of the Orders it oversees to grow, and thus give the old established families who control the appointments to the Board more political influence within the Empire.
