Role and powers
The Grand President of Fravina, as the Head of State, has considerable powers within the political structure of Fravina. The president is constitutionally mandated to be a member of the Central Committee and the Grand Committee, and is customarily given a seat on the National Military Council. The president's role as the Grand Chief of the Fravi Rose Forces entails high-ranking military responsibilities, ensuring the defence and security of the Republic.
As a member of the People's Council, the president participates in legislative processes and is usually chosen from the leader of the largest coalition in the Wing of Legislation, the law-making body of Fravina. As the most powerful member of the People's Council, the president is granted a suspsnsive veto where they can request a second debate and vote on a law. The president may also refer a law to the Grand Court over any constitutional concerns.
The president has the sole power to choose any person to serve as the premier, as well as the sole power to dismiss the premier. However, the president customarily chooses themself to act in this position. In this capacity, the president also functions as the Head of Government, making critical decisions about the administration and governance of the state.
Term and appointment
The term length of the Grand President is five years, a term that is renewable for a total of two terms. The appointment to this high office is contingent on the individual being a member of the People's Council and generally leading the most substantial coalition in the Wing of Legislation. This aspect of the appointment process ensures that the president has a strong democratic mandate and political backing.
History
The office of the Grand President was established on 29 August 1949, replacing the previous office of the Headmaster. Many of the powers and responsibilities of the president is derived from the powers of the headmaster. The first person to hold this office was Jacques de Mercy, who set a precedent for future holders of the office in terms of their roles and responsibilities. Over the course of more than 70 years, the office has evolved with changing political dynamics, but the core functions and responsibilities of the Grand President have remained the same.
In 1976, President Joel Woodville appointed his predecessor Lucien LaClaire as Premier, the first and only time the president did not concurrently serve in the position.
The current Grand President, Bernard Beaumont, has been in office since 1 January 2016.
Residence
The official residence of the president is the Manoir Exécutif, a historic and symbolic edifice that serves as the official seat of power in Fravina. The Manoir provides the Grand President with the facilities and resources necessary to discharge the responsibilities of office effectively.
