The '''Cabinet of Belmonte''' ({{wp|Portuguese language|Iustian}}: ''Gabinete de Belmonte''), officially the '''Council of Ministers of the United Republic of Belmonte''' (Iustian: ''Conselho de Ministros da República Unida de Belmonte''), is the collective decision-making body of the [[Government of Belmonte]], being presided by the [[Premier of Belmonte|premier]] who draws its members from the [[National Congress of Belmonte|National Congress]]. The cabinet forms, alongside the premier and the [[President of Belmonte|president]], the {{wp|executive branch}} of the Belmontese government.
==History==
The first {{wp|Cabinet|council of ministers}} was created on the aftermath of the [[Liberal Party (Belmonte)|liberal victory]] in the [[Federalist Revolt]] and the establishment of the [[First Belmontese Republic]]. Despite being a {{wp|presidential republic}} in which the presidency was granted several powers, [[President of Belmonte|president]] [[Jorge Aranha|Aranha]] established several federal departments and institutions including the cabinet, which was composed by four ministers at the time, expanding to six before the [[1828 Coup]]. With the introduction of a {{wp|Parliamentarism|parliamentary system}} in the [[Second Belmontese Republic|Second Republic]], the cabinet would have its powers greatly expanded with the [[Premier of Belmonte|premier]] being its head under a {{wp|''primus inter pares''}} system, however, with the [[National Renovation Coup]] and [[Berquó's dictatorship|Berquó's]] rise to power in 1913, the cabinet would found itself reduced to a simple advisory council with no power whatsoever, with the [[Constitution of Belmonte|1936 constitution]] solidifying this situation by giving to the premiership presidential-like powers.
