The Consul of Midrasia (Midrasian: Consul de Mydrazia), is the head of state and government within Republic of Midrasia. The position of Consul was created in 1648 following the resolution of the Midrasian Civil War. The role was created as a replacement for the wartime position of Protecteur once it became apparent that Midrasia would not reinstate the monarchy. Whilst initially the position effectively functioned as a legal dictator, this was changed in the 1791 constitution, making the position more democratic with four year terms, direct elections and more accountability. The Consul and the Council of State are accountable to Parliament, their respective political bloc, party and the electorate. In total there have been 45 Consuls since the position was created. The current Consul is Melcion Portas of the Progressive Alliance who was inaugurated on 1 January 2018. (See more...)
