Let's take the EU for example. France and Italy.
The leader of France is also the director of the EU Medicine Agency. The leader of Italy is also the director of the EU Food Agency. They do not rule as respective ministers. But to harmonise, mediate, supervise each other. Each member can do however they want, but the leader of the neighbouring nation supervise how it can be implemented throughout the allied realm.
Now, do this the same with /meat/. The instituitions you wrote, the Fellows, are like the EU Agencies.
The Stadrtlartoani of Matiriki is the Rikitnahualli. They are in charge of handling magic research and distribution of knowledge.
The Stadrtlatoani of Ryonaheim is the Rikitlaeknir. They are in charge of supervising medicine and welfare.
So your neighbour is not your minister, they are your supervisor at harmonising policies between the alliance members.
