The Vozhd of the Slavic Union was the head of government and chief executive of the Slavic Union until 2021. The Vozhd was elected by the Duma. Assigned with near autocratic power the Vozhd was the commander in chief of the Grand Slavic Armed Forces and the head of every branch of the Slavic government. There are very few limits on the Vozhd's power, with the only way to remove them before they've resigned was to issue a vote of no confidence, which requires approval by 85% of the Duma. This has been done only once to Vozhd Vasily Osipov in 1998 after he made repeated threats against bordering nations to invade.

The Vozhd also acts as the Unions primary representative on the world stage to the World Assembly, the Coalition of Crown Albatross, and any other nation with which the Union has diplomatic relations.

As of August 30, 2021 it appears that the position of Vozhd has been abolished.

Origin and Etymology

Vozhd (Russian: Вождь, lit. 'leader, guide') is a Russian Church Slavonic loanword derived from the verb vesti (вести, meaning "to lead", "to guide").

Slavic Field Marshall Nikifor Osipov was the first Vozhd, having abolished the monarchy after the death of Imperator Aleksandr II and declaring himself 'Vozhd of all Slavic peoples'.
