The Throne room of Eagleia is located in the very center of the Capitol Building. It is the most important room. This is the room where the entire Congress gathers to hear the Throne Speech to open a new session of Congress.

Picture: The Throne Room of Eagleia with focus on the Imperial Throne. The Monarch sits on the Throne (The Imperial Throne) in the centre, and his/her consort sits on the one next to the Throne. If the Monarch and his/her consort are not available, the Governor General or Deputy Governor General delivers the Speech from the Throne, if the person delivering Throne Speech does not have a consort, then the Royal Scepter lies on the Consort's Throne instead, symbolizing the Governor-General's (and his representatives) important relationship with the Sovereign. On the other side of the Throne is the flag of Eagleia. Above is the Royal Cypher of the current Monarch. Above that is a portrait Queen Elizabeth II, the first Sovereign of a federated Eagleia.
