What these offices do

Top leadership is not a cabinet above the three branches. It is the set of offices the charter names to lead each branch and to keep the federation honest between elections.

The Federal Chairperson leads the Executive and answers to the chambers. The Speaker presides over the Legislature. The Chief Justice leads the courts. Three independent offices, the Electoral Commission, the Council of Elders and the Youth Representative, sit outside the branches so that elections, disputes between leaders and the voice of young citizens do not depend on the people in power.

Office holders serve fixed terms, publish their decisions, and can be recalled under the charter. Until an office is filled it is shown as open, with the way to apply.

Where these offices come from

The charter creates every office on this page, sets its term and says who it answers to. Nothing here exists outside it, and a change to an office is a change to the charter, made by the chambers and tested by the courts.
