The Community of Nations Secretary-General is the leading executive and presiding legislative figure of the Community of Nations, and is responsible for the enforcement of international laws, regulations, and treaties. The Secretary-General is an extremely important individual who wields great influence in the international community. Until the 1960's Secretary-Generals were mostly from Euclea, but since then there has been a growing tendency for Secretary-Generals to rotate between regional groups. The current secretary-general, Ekaterine Beruchashvili, is the first female to hold the position.
