The president of Fratanica, officially the President of the Federal Republic of Fratanica, is the head of state of Fratanica and commander-in-chief of the Fratanican Armed Forces. The president is considered to be an executive president, holding power over both the armed forces and foreign affairs. The position was established on August 19th, 1941, just 2 days after the August 17th coup. The Fratanican presidency is considered the highest office of the land, holding great prestige as a position despite its limited governmental powers.
Under the Fratanican constitution, the President is the head of state of Fratanica. However, unlike other parliamentary republics, the President does have limited executive power and is not merely a figurehead. The Constitution delegates military and foreign affairs as responsibilities for the President, while economic and domestic policy is handled by the Prime Minister. The President was initially given one 6-year term with no chance at reelection, however, this was amended in 1968 to give a 4-year term with two term limit.
The current President is Lukas Wolf, who succeeded President Francisco Aguillon on September 18, 2020.
