The Federal Premier of the Weranian Confederation (Weranian: Bundesministerpräsident der Ostischen Bund) has been the head of government of Werania since the unification of Werania in 1842. There has been 44 premier since that date. The first Premier of Werania, Ulrich von Bayrhoffer, was formerly the Minister-President of Cislania before becoming the first Weranian Premier. The Weranian Premier prior to the 1900's was able to govern solely with the consent of the monarch, with the inaugural monarch Rudolf VI controlling the nomination of the Premier. Since then the position has been solely responsible to the Bundestag completing a shift from a strong monarchy to a strong parliamentary system.

The longest serving Premier is Rasa Šimonytė who served for 10 years, 1 month and 24 days from 1999 to 2009. The shortest serving Premier is Johannes von Günther who served for 2 months and 21 days in 1950. The current Premier is Anton Raicevich of the National Consolidation Party who has been in office since July 2022.

There has been two female Premiers (Šimonytė and Emilia Koopmann) and three Ruttish ones (Ažuolas Kuzmickas, Renatas Vinkauskas and Šimonytė). Two Premiers have died in office (the Prince of Oppolzer and Xaver von Aehrenthal). Six Premiers have served non-consecutive terms (von Bayrhoffer, Ferdinand Karl von Schönborn-Buchheim, Ludwig Gustav von Middendorff, Joachim Schwarzenberg, von Aehrenthal, Casper von Kléber and Walther von Pittermann).

If the premier is incapacitated they are replaced with the vice-premier. If the vice-premier is also unavailable the monarch may pick a senior minister or legislator to serve as a caretaker until the Bundestag picks a permanent replacement for the premier.

Since 1957, all premiers have come either from the National Consolidation Party or the Social Democratic Radical Party of Werania.

			Considered to be one of the key figures behind the unification of Werania, von Bayrhoffer dominated the early politics of the new state mentoring Emperor Sigismund. In internal affairs he promoted conservative reforms, extending the suffrage in 1846 but strengthening the power of the monarchy. In international affairs he aligned with the pan-Weranicists pursuing an aggressive policy in annexing smaller Weranic state. He was dismissed in 1845 due to his aggressive foreign policy being seen as threatening to the Weranian-Estmerish alliance.

			A war hero from the Weranian War for Unification von Reuss assembled a largely conservative cabinet, although continued to rely on the pan-Weranicists to govern. His government pursued a more peaceful and less aggressive foreign policy with Werania's neighbours, in particularly with Estmere. He resigned due to fustration with dealing with parliament.

			Appointed following von Reuss's resignation von Schönborn-Buchheim continued his moderate policies. Following the coronation of Adalbert as head of state von Schönborn-Buchheim was forced to depart from the premiership as Adalbert, considered to be closer to the pan-Weranicists, brought back von Bayrhoffer.					Adalbert (1850-1913)

			Returning to office, von Bayrhoffer promoted an aggressive foreign policy and a renewal in pan-Weranic sentiments to deal with an increasingly radical opposition in the country. In 1852 he led Werania into the War of the Triple Alliance in an attempt to unify the Weranian lands of Kirenia into Werania. The resulting war was a victory for Werania which gained the Zinnbage basin and Ruttland from Kirenia. However von Bayrhoffer was forced to resign after a failed revolution by former Septemeberist leader Sebastian Mertz led to a collapse in support for his cabinet.
(3)		Count Ferdinand Karl von Schönborn-Buchheim (1805-1863)	24th May 1856	7th October 1860	4 years, 4 months and 13 days	1859	Legitimist

			A member of the Weranic-Ruttish nobility von Middendorff's cabinet fell in 1869 when a proposal to extend the vote to the "respectable working class" led to heated opposition within the Bundestag.
6		Viscount Johann Franz von Gieslingen (1819-1882)	26th June 1870	18th May 1872	1 year, 10 months and 22 days	1871	Liberal
			Von Gieslingen increased tariffs during his term and sought to come to better relations with the church regarding funding for schools. His cabinet was dismissed in 1872 over differences with the monarch and a lack of parliamentary support.
(5)		Earl Ludwig Gustav von Middendorff (1816-1880)	18th May 1872	24th August 1875	3 years, 3 months and 6 days	-	Liberal
			In his second term von Middendorff expanded the voting franchise with parliamentary support as well as the approval of the imperial house. He also significantly increased Weranic interventionism abroad being seen as a "liberal interventionist". He was dismissed by the monarch for his support for free trade in 1875.
7		Count Joachim Schwarzenberg (1820-1882)	24th August 1875	16th February 1876	5 months and 23 days	1875	Liberal

(5)		Earl Ludwig Gustav von Middendorff (1816-1880)	16th February 1876	3th October 1876	7 months and 17 days	-	Liberal
			Returning to power as the only candidate with a majority in the Bundestag von Middendorff focus on the brewing crisis in Ruttland in his tenure. His failure to address Ruttish nationalism and his proposal to extend further autonomy to Ruttland lost him the support of the monarch and resulted in his resignation.
8		Duke Xaver von Aehrenthal (1815-1886)	3th October 1876	17th March 1878	1 year, 5 months and 14 days	-	Catholic
			Von Aehrenthal's government was considered to be that of moderate conservatism implementing various welfare policies and factory regulation to increase the support of the government amongst the working class. However von Aehrenthal was dismissed from office following the Jutenberg scandal.
9		Count Nicolas von Rheingold (1820-1882)	17th March 1878	5th September 1879	1 year, 5 months and 19 days	1879	Catholic
			Von Rheingold continued his predecessor's policies but was to be seen as a weak figure due to his reliance on the monarchy. The conservatives lost support in the 1879 election and after failing to come to an accord with the legislature von Rheingold resigned a year later.
10		Count Ažuolas Kuzmickas (1837-1892)	5th September 1879	17th March 1882	2 years, 6 months and 12 days	-	Liberal

			Von Littrow enjoyed support from both the monarch and the Bundestag. Under von Littrow industrialisation programmes were expanded as were colonial incentives. A reform of the banking system under von Littrow led to Werania to help develop one of the largest banking sectors in the world after Gaullica. He resigned in 1887 after his ministry lost support over alleged financial corruption.
(8)		Duke Xaver von Aehrenthal (1815-1886)	7th April 1887	26th November 1889†	2 years, 7 months and 19 days	1887	Catholic
			Returning to office in 1887, von Aehrenthal attempted to implement sound fiscal policies and expand Weranic colonial interests abroad, being considered close to the colonial lobby. These attempts led to colonial border conflicts with Estmere and Gaullica that were unresolved in his term. He died in office in 1889.
12		Prince Adolf Ritter von Kral (1842-1914)	26th November 1889	20th August 1892	2 years, 8 months and 25 days	1891	Catholic
			Von Kral's government was considered to favour policies advocating for a strong national defence and imperialism abroad and reactionary conservatism domestically, making his government popular to conservative elements. His anti-leftism however led to the 1891 general strike which only ended after Interior Minister Konrad von Höhnel and the monarch were able to broker a compromise; Von Kral never regained authority and resigned in 1892.
13		Count Konrad von Höhnel (1852-1926)	20th August 1892	6th May 1900	7 years, 8 months and 16 days	1895, 1899	NLP
			Considered a moderate conservative, von Höhnel mainly focused on foreign affairs. His term as premier saw Werania attempt to form an alliance with Gaullica but opposition from conservative elements and Werania's longstanding commitments with Estmere meant this policy was unsuccessfult. In 1898 von Höhnel presided over a shift in the Weranian party system when he formed a coalition government between his own National Liberal Party and the Weranian Conservative Party. He resigned in 1900.
(14)		Count Mathias von Steichen (1871-1937)	6th May 1900	14th May 1903	3 years and 8 days	-	NLP
			A largely conservative figure, von Steichen struggled to lower tariffs on food imports for fear of splitting the conservative coalition. He instead attempted to further expand the empire, but this was controversial amongst sections of the electorate wary of foreign adventurism. Opposition to higher bread tariffs led to a conservative defeat in the 1903 election.
15		Baron Casper von Staffort (1868-1952)	14th May 1903	7th June 1907	4 years and 24 days	1903	Radicals

Von Staffort was defeated by a conservative coalition in the 1907 election.
16		Count Erich von Schätzle (1866-1931)	7th June 1907	27th May 1911	3 years, 11 months and 20 days	1907	KSP

18		Otto Röttgen (1872-1935)	11th August 1913	23rd April 1914	8 months and 12 days	-	Radicals
			Heading a reduced minority government Röttgen had little control of his party and was unable to solve the economic crisis. The government as a reult lost the 1914 election.
19		Baron Walther von Pittermann (1860-1924)	23rd April 1914	19th October 1916	2 years, 5 months and 26 days	1914	KSP
			Premier von Blumentritt formed a centre-right coalition with support from the Catholic Social and National Liberal parties. The government promoted conservative fiscal policies in response to the Great Collapse but this led to the recession to become prolonged. His government was extremely unpopular when it proved unable to deal with the economic fallout of the Great Collapse and collapsed in 1916.
(16)		Count Erich von Schätzle (1866-1931)	19th October 1916	4th June 1917	7 months and 16 days	-	KSP
			Returning to power von Schätzle focused on maintaining Weranian financial confidence and shoring up the currency. Although he successfully passed devaluation off the gold standard this led to the collapse of his popularity and forced his resignation.
20		Duke Wilhelm von Kuehnelt (1871-1947)	4th June 1917	7th April 1920	2 years, 10 months and 3 days	August 1918 October 1918	KSP
			Von Kuehnelt led a government that continued economic retrenchment in coalition with other centre-right forces. In 1918 the coalition won re-election but was riven by internal factionalism. In 1920 von Kuehnelt resigned after losing a budget vote.

Reforms in labour and industry were pursued such as the introduction of a 40-hour workweek. As a response to the Valduvian Revolution the OSAI disintegrated over launching a similar revolution leading to Küchenthal to be dismissed after revolutionary violence threatened to occur in Werania.
22		Count Hermann von Ratzinger (1872-1933)	16th December 1921	24th September 1924	2 years, 5 months and 25 days	1922	KSP
			Governing with the Catholics and the Liberals with the support of the Federal Presidency, von Ratzinger was openly admiring of the work of the Gaullican functionalist regime and attempted to build a corporatist state in Werania whilst undertaking a foreign policy of appeasement towards Gaullica. His heavy handed approach to left agitation led von Ratzinger to be accused of dictatorial tendencies. In 1924 his government collapsed leading him to petition Leopold VI to dismantle the Bundestag and suspend the constitution but was rebuffed, resigning from office when a new government was formed.
23		Baron Reinhold von Schönborn-Herz (1859-1934)	24th September 1924	8th June 1929	4 years, 8 months and 15 days	1924	KSP
			Von Schönborn-Herz led a coalition government of the Rural Federation, the NLP, the SPO and the RP as a compromise candidate to both the Bundestag and the monarchy, sitting in the House of Lords rather than the House of Deputies. Von Schönborn-Herz was unable to solve Werania's recession and was accused of practicing appeasement towards functionalist Gaullica albeit still defending Werania's alliances with Etruria and Estmere. Expected to resign in 1927 to call new elections von Schönborn-Herz froze his planned resignation due to the outbreak of the Great War, However he was seen to mismanage the oversight of the war, resulting in him being forced resign after his health failed.
(18)		Otto Röttgen (1872-1935)	8th June 1929	14th Octobet 1937	8 years, 4 months and 6 days	1935	Radicals
			Creating a grand coalition of the LB, KSP, NLP, RP and SPO Röttgen was appointed as part of the Leopoldist movement. Considered to be an effective war leader rallying the population behind the war effort and stabilising the war situation, Röttgen worked closely with Leopold IV and Chief of Staffs Karl von Straußenburg and Rupprecht Bormann in coordinating Weranic forces on the field. Röttgen was the Weranic delegate at the ultimate peace conference for the war which earned him the moniker the "premier of Victory". He left office in 1937 heading a reduced coalition of the SPO, Radicals and NLP.					Maximilian III (1936-1944)
24		Gustav Blumentritt (1896-1970)	14th October 1937	25th March 1939	1 year, 5 months and 11 days	-	KSP

He was killed during the Höcker Putsch after being defenestrated by the Weranic Syndicalist Union.
26		Adalbert Nischwitz (1868-1952)	17th June 1941	4th May 1942	10 months and 17 days	-	Radicals

Nischwitz was the last premier from the Radical party.

			A member of the House of Lords zu Kolbenheyer led the "Fatherland Bloc" of the KSP, Landbund and NLP after being recommended by the monarch as the only candidate with broad support. His government was mainly remembered in participating in colonial conflict and growing isolation from Werania's Euclean allies, especially after responding poorly to the outbreak of the Solarian War. He retired in 1945.					Otto XI (1944-1985)
28		Franz Rössler (1894-1968)	13th September 1945	17th May 1950	4 years, 8 months and 4 days	1946	KSP Fatherland Bloc
			Continuing the composition of the previous government Rössler intensified the war in Masari committing more troops to the conflict. The conduct of the war under Rössler's tenure attracted international criticism and massive losses for Weranic forces. In December 1949 Rössler presided over the Kirenian-Weranian War which saw Weranian forces defeated - this led to the Colonels putsch which whilst being put down destroyed the government leading to his resignation.

Re-orientating Werania's economic and foreign alignment to Euclean integration, Beer-Hofmann led Werania into the EC in 1955. Supporting progressive economic and social reforms, Beer-Hofmann controversially nationalised various industries including banks which alienated parts of the electorate. Despite winning re-election in 1954 in 1955 the KSP ended the grand coalition leading to a new federal election that saw the victory of the right-wing parties. Beer-Hofmann is the only Witterite premier.
