The monarchy operates as an absolute monarchy, in which the current monarch exercises supreme governing authority as both the head of state and head of government. The animals of Leopon Plains serve as the subjects of the alpha leopon, who, in turn, serves as the monarch. Notably, Leopon Plains is one of the few kingdoms to not be ruled by a lion, but rather a leopon.
Succession to the crown is hereditary, and the monarchy appears to have absolute (or equal) primogeniture, meaning that no gender is preferred over the other. However, a succession may occur due to a coup d'état, as known through the failed staged murder of Atiena at Ubaya's claws.
The current monarch of Leopon Plains is Ajani, and his heir apparent is Mhina. Once he takes the throne, Mhina will make history as the first monarch to also simultaneously be a member of the Lion Guard, a position typically reserved for the second-born cub of the king and queen. Leopon Plains has notably never had a Lion Guard throughout its existence as a territory. In addition, as Mhina's chosen consort is Kion, they will both make history as the first same-sex rulers of Leopon Plains and in any kingdom.
