Arabic and it s capitol is Riyadh. It also states that the King is the head of state and the Prime Minister. There is a Council of Ministers who are appointed by the King and who help him in formulating and executing his policies. The King is also a Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. All government officials, agencies, and the ministers themselves are responsible to the King whose title is Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques. Laws relating to Saudi society, economic principles, rights and duties, governmental authorities regarding the judicial, executive and regulatory branches, monetary affairs, control and general rule are also included in the constitution. All regulations, instructions and resolutions valid until the implementation of any new system are to continue until

they are amended. Members of the Consultative Council must be of good reputation, well-qualified, educated and Saudi nationals by birth and origin. The rules are spelled out in detail in a fashion similar to other parliamentary bodies but in a Saudi spirit. Without a form of constitution to help govern a monarchy, the Saudi Arabian system could fail. The people under the King s rule want more control over the government, and through meetings like the majlis, the people can have more control over the lesser systems of the government. Though it is a monarchy, the people have enough control to be given the decision of what is best for them by electing officers who will make that decision.
